WARNING
Rotating Blades Can
Cause Severe Injury.
DO NOT
reach into the container while the
machine is running.
Wet-Blade Container:
Designed for processing liquids,
including juice, frozen mixtures, sauces, soup, purées, batter,
and for wet chopping. The wet blades can also process grain
and knead dough, but they are not quite as efficient as the
dry blades in this application. See instructions for dry
container use.
Dry-Blade Container:
These blades are clearly marked “D”
and are designed specifically for processing dry materials
such as grain, cereal and coffee, and are also used for
kneading bread dough. The dry blades CANNOT process
liquids efficiently.
If you prepare herbs on a regular basis,
you may wish to purchase a separate dry-blade container.

ABOUT THE BLADES
CAUTION
CAUTION
Rotating Blades Can Cause Damage.
Lids and tampers are not interchangeable between diff erent
container styles, types and sizes. Use the tamper that was
supplied with your machine.
How to Determine the Tamper to be Used with Your
Container
Each type of tamper is designed to be used safely and eff ectively with a
particular container.
If a tamper came with your container, it is the correct
tamper for the container.
If a tamper did not come with your container or you
want to determine if a tamper that you already have can be used with your new
container, please compare your container with the containers and matching
tampers in the illustration below. Before using the tamper during the blending
process, verify that it is the correct tamper.
•
64 oz. / 2 L Short Containers use Tamper P/N 016041, which is approximately
11 inches long.
•
64 oz. / 2 L Tall Containers use Tamper P/N 000760, which is approximately
12-½ inches long.
•
32 oz. and 48 oz. / 0.9 L and 1.4 L Containers use Tamper P/N 015033, which is
approximately 9-¾ inches long.
To verify that you are using the correct tamper, place the lid on an empty
container, remove the lid plug and insert the tamper. If it is the correct tamper,
it should fi t easily into the opening, but should not come into contact with the
blades no matter where you move the tamper inside the container. IF THE
TAMPER TOUCHES THE BLADES AT ANY ANGLE - DO NOT USE THE TAMPER
WITH YOUR CONTAINER. If you do not have the correct tamper for your
container, contact your local Vitamix Dealer.
