Note these important features of the blade ring. The blade ring can be placed over the plastic blade sheath in two dif- ferent ways:
If you hold it as in figure A, you will see the word “Sharp” on the blade. Assemble the blade this side up to use the sharp edge. (See the section on processing food, page 9, for information about when to use the sharp edge.)
If you hold it as in figure B, you will see no writing on the blade. Assemble the blade this side up to use the blunt edge.
See the section on processing food, page 9, for information about when to use the blunt edge.
There are notches (C) on opposite sides of the interior of the hub. These fit over ridges on the sides of the plastic blade sheath.
A. | Sharp side |
B. | Blunt side up |

Pick up the blade ring by its hub holding ribs (grips) and line up the notches in the interior of the blade ring hub with the ridges on the sides of the plastic blade sheath. Let the blade ring slide down to the bottom of the plastic blade
sheath. The lower blade should almost touch the bottom of the prep bowl.
Lift the prep bowl, holding it firmly from the bottom. Pick up the blade ring by its hub hold- ing ribs (grips) and turn it very slightly clockwise. This locks it in place on the plastic blade sheath and prevents it from sliding up during processing.
3.Connect the hand blender motor body to the top of the chopper/grinder attachment cover. Align the spline in the chopper/grinder cover’s drive shaft with the ribbed opening on the underside of the motor body. When aligned properly, slide the two pieces together until they mate. You will feel and hear a slight click. It may be helpful to press the rubber release button when sliding these pieces together.
4.With the hand blender in place, locate the chopper/grinder cover and place it on top of the prep bowl.
