The Pulpmaster uses a blade that attaches to a drill. It cuts your fruit into small pieces that are then ready to press in your fruit press. Can be used with soft fruits, apples, pears, rhubarb, etc Simply put the apples in the bucket. Push the blade through the lid and attach it to a drill. We recommend using a battery powered hand drill. You can use a mains powered drill but make sure you don't use it on full speed and it is connected to an RCD electric cut off. Push the lid firmly onto the bucket. Start the drill, slowly at first and lower the drill so the blade gradually chops the apples from the top down to the bottom of the bucket. Once you reach the bottom, raise and lower the blade a couple of times to make sure all the apples are chopped. Then lift the lid and pour the pulped apples into your press. Do not use to pulp fruit with stones, e.g. cherries, plums, etc as some of these fruits have poisonous stones.
