The Bella Juicer will not power on when the knob is turned to LO or HI.
If you turn the machine on and nothing happens, one possible problem is that the safety locking arm isn’t engaged. If the locking arm isn’t in the correct place, the juicer won’t turn on. To engage the locking arm, make sure to snap it into the two grooves on either side of the juicer cover. Once it is securely in place the machine should turn on.
Check to see if the cord is plugged into an outlet. If the device still won’t turn on, check to see if any part of the cord looks broken or damaged.
The motor may need to be replaced.
Juice won’t come out of the spout when the juicer is operating.
Carefully remove the pulp container and empty it.

Too much pulp is in the juice coming out of the juicer.
Take out the strainer and clean it out using warm water and soap. Be careful doing this as the cutter teeth are sharp.
The strainer may be damaged or have a hole in it. inspect the strainer and determine if it is torn or ripped.
Ensure the blades are clean and not clogged full of pulp. Be careful not to injure yourself as the blades are quite sharp.
During normal operations of the Bella juicer, it makes an odd grinding noise.
If there is a grinding noise coming from the juicer, the potential problem could be a loose motor mount.
Ensure the blade basket is properly seated.
A plastic odor comes from the juicer when it is running.
The motor brushes are worn out or the cooling fan is not working properly.
