Maintenance
Inspect the Blender and its various parts and replace as follows:
Daily
Unplug the Blender and remove the container from the Blender Base, then inspect the container
and cutter assembly for wear, nicks, and broken or loose blades. Replace if necessary. If the
blades are loose, discontinue use immediately and replace the blades.
Do not attempt to repair or tighten the cutter assembly. See “Technical Services.”
Weekly
Unplug the Blender, then inspect the power cord insulation and power plug for cracks. Refer to
“Technical Services” for repair or replacement.
Quarterly
Replace the container and cutter assembly as needed if inspection finds wear, nicks, or broken
or loose blades. See “Technical Services.”
Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
Blender fails to start,
or stops while it is
running and cannot
be restarted.
• Check to see if unit is securely plugged into an electric outlet.
• Check to see if the integrated circuit breaker has tripped and reset it, if needed.
• Check to see if the fuse for the electric outlet has blown or if a circuit breaker has tripped.
• If the motor stops during operation due to overheating, unplug and allow the unit to cool
down for 15 minutes. Plug unit back in after 15 minutes to resume normal operation.
Ingredients will not
mix properly.
• Check to see if enough liquid has been added to the ingredients. Mixture should be fluid and
free-running at all times.
• Solid pieces are too large. Pieces should not exceed 1" cubes.
• Container is too full. Do not fill past highest graduation marking.
• Cutter unit blades are not sharp or are damaged. Inspect container and cutter assembly daily.
Replace the container and cutter assembly as needed if inspection finds wear, nicks, or broken
or loose blades. See “Technical Services.”
• Check to see if cutter assembly is installed properly.
• Select speed to create a fluid blend.
