How to Assemble and Use

IMPORTANT: Your blender jar and
cutting blades are subject to wear dur-
ing normal use. Always inspect jar for
nicks, chips, or cracks. Always inspect
cutting blades for broken, cracked, or
loose blades. If jar or cutting blades are
damaged, do not use. Call our toll-free

Place blades in safety base. Fit
gasket over blades. The gasket must
lie flat. Set jar on top of gasket and
screw on safety base.

must lie flat. Set jar on top of gasket
and screw on safety base.

screwed onto the jar. If not, it may
loosen later when motor is turned on.
