Abstract: A juicer attachment which can be latched onto a motor housing includes an upper cover and a lower cover attached to said upper cover to define a gear chamber. The drive for a rotary straining and juicing basket includes telescopically engaged upper and lower drive shafts with spaced heat dissipating bushings and speed reduction gears in the gear chamber. At least one spring biases at least one drive shaft upwardly to normally disengage at least two gears in the chamber so that the motor can be left running while the rotary parts of the juicer attachment remain stationary.
