MACHINE ASSEMBLY

Safety Interlock

The interlock is supplied only for those countries requiring this feature. 
With the machine plugged into the nearest outlet, the magnetic safety lock  
will disengage the power supply to the motor when the safety lid is lifted into  
an upright position while placing the container on the centering pad (Figure A). 
Power is engaged whenever the safety lid is lowered onto the container lid  
(Figure B). The accelerator tool can be used through the safety lid and  
container lid while blending.

WARNINGS!

Blade Assembly

Blade Agitator Assembly:

 The blade assembly 

includes a precision-hardened stainless steel blade 
with enclosed double sealed steel ball bearings for 
maximum durability. The rugged blade assembly 
literally explodes molecules of food and ice in the 
container, helping every batch to homogenize 
more effectively. The blades do not need to 
be removed for normal cleaning. (Refer to the 
information below to remove or replace.)

Drive Spline: 

Inserts into drive socket on the motor 

base to turn the blade.  

Note:

 Removing and replacing your container 

while the coupling is still rotating will strip the 
drive spline “teeth.” 

(This part is NOT removable.)

Retainer Nut: 

Must be snug. Order the available 

Retainer Nut Wrench for best results. (Refer to  
the information below to remove or replace.)

Blade Assembly Removal

At times, it may be necessary to give your blades 
additional cleaning. An easy-to-use blade assembly 
removal wrench (Item #15596) may be purchased. 
Turn the container upside down and grip firmly. 
Insert retainer nut wrench in groove of retainer nut 
and rotate counterclockwise to loosen. Then grip 
blades with a cloth and remove retainer nut by hand.

Replacing Blade Assembly:

 With the container 

upside down, grip blades with cloth, insert into 
the container bottom and align with flat sides of 
container opening. Place retainer nut on and hand 
tighten. Using the retainer nut wrench, carefully 
turn clockwise until secure, using wrench.  

Do not force.

 If it is not tight enough, you will 

notice increased container noise.

Retainer Nut Wrench

WARNINGS!

Never use a blade assembly with loose, damaged or nicked components.

Caution: 

Do not remove blades or blade assembly unless absolutely necessary! 

Never attempt to take the blade assembly itself apart. This will void the warranty.
