Vita-Mix BarBos MP owner manual Blade Assembly Removal, Replacing Blade Assembly

Page 8

Blade Agitator Assembly. Blades are sharp; use caution when handling the blade. When inserting the blade assembly through the container bottom, align the flat sides. Gravity holds it in place while the retainer nut is tightened. Do not attempt to disassemble this part.

Drive Spline. Mates with 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 diagram below to remove or replace.)

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

Blade Assembly Removal

CAUTION: Do not remove blades unless absolutely necessary! 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 through your Vita-Mix distributor. Never attempt to take the blade assembly itself apart. This will void the warranty.

Turn the container upside down and grip firmly. Insert retainer nut wrench in groove of retainer nut and rotate counterclock- wise 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. Last, carefully turn clockwise until secure, using wrench. Do not force. If it is not tight enough, you will notice increased container noise.
