turn it clockwise to tighten.
3. Place Jar assembly onto base.
A. To tighten container bottom, put
assembled container securely into motor
base ring with handle and lug in front of
the right stop.
B. Using the container handle, turn container
to the left as far as possible. This insures
that the container bottom is tightened
properly. Remove container from motor
base and mount.
C. To operate Blender, place assembled
container in motor base ring with container
lug against flat side of the motor base
stop. If container lug does not rest against
flat side of right stop, remove container
assembly and place against flat side of left
stop. Seat container firmly and operate.
D. To remove container, lift straight up.
(If it is not easily removed, rock gently
and lift up, do not twist). If container
bottom cannot be loosened by hand,
place assembled container into motor
base ring with handle in front of left side
stop. Using handle, turn container to right
until container bottom loosens.
Do not attempt to place the container on or
attempt to remove it from the motor base
while the motor is running.
ALWAYS HOLD CONTAINER WITH ONE
HAND WHILE PROCESSING!

CARE AND CLEANING OF YOUR OSTER® BLENDER
Blender container parts are corrosion resistant, sanitary and easily cleaned. Before first use
and after every use, separate container parts by removing the threaded bottom cap from the
jar, and put the jar, cover, feeder cap, and threaded bottom cap to clean thoroughly in warm,
soapy water then rinse and dry well. Care shall be taken when handling the sharp cutting
blades during cleaning. After cleaning, assemble the threaded bottom cap on jar properly.
Periodically check all parts before re-assembly. If the processing blades are stuck or difficult to
turn, DO NOT USE BLENDER. Check by carefully turning the blades in an anti-clockwise
direction (opposite edges are sharp). Blades should turn freely.
If the container is chipped or cracked, DO NOT USE BLENDER. Further use could result
in the container breaking during use. Use only OSTER
parts available at an Authorized Service Center.
USE OF DAMAGED OR NON‑RECOMMENDED PARTS COULD RESULT IN SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR DAMAGE TO THE BLENDER. See Page 4 for proper
container assembly and user instructions.
NEVER IMMERSE THE MOTOR BASE IN WATER. The housing can be cleaned with a damp
cloth (unplug first). The motor is permanently lubricated and does not require any additional
lubrication. ANY SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY AN AUTHORIZED SERVICE
FACILITY.
HOW YOUR OSTER® BLENDER WORKS
Your OSTER
Blender is a multi-speed appliance which operates on a wide range of speeds
®
from very slow to very fast. This range of speeds makes food preparation easy, interesting and
fast.
In addition, your OSTER
Blender has two distinct methods of operation:
®
1. CONTINUOUS run for blending, liquefying and fine chopping.
2. CONTROLLED CYCLE BLENDING, used for chopping pieces of food, such as vegetables,
nuts or cheeses. There are several different ways of operating the CONTROLLED CYCLE /
BLENDING CYCLE feature, but all involve turning the motor on and off intermittently.
When on, food is chopped and tossed away from the blades. When off, the food is
distributed around the blades to make processing more uniform.
NOTE: A cycle consists of operating the blender for about two seconds and then allowing the
blades to coast to a stop.
