BLENDER SERVICE
PROCEDURES
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.
Safety: Before starting any service procedure,
review the Safety Guidelines in the front of this
manual.
Perform any Blender disassembly on a clean
surface and provide a cushion for the Power Base
to avoid scratching the surface of the product.
Unplug blender or disconnect power before servicing.
Power Base Access: To access the Power Base,
remove the four Rubber Feet at the bottom of the
Power Base. Then remove the four Phillips head
screws with a clean, medium-sized Phillips
screwdriver.

If any of the Rubber Feet are heavily soiled or
cracked, you should replace all four of them.
When replacing or installing the Rubber Feet, make
sure that they are all inserted equally into the Base
so that the Blender will sit level on the work
surface.
Power Cord Replacement: Always be sure to
inspect the condition of the Blender's Power Cord
before running the unit.
Replace the Power Cord when heavily soiled, cut
or damaged in any way.
Once the four screws at the bottom of the Power
Base are removed, the top and bottom of the Base
can be easily separated for Power Cord and
component inspection.
Figure 4
Note the orientation of the Power Cord in the top
and bottom parts of the Base so that the proper
orientation can be repeated when installing the new
Cord assembly.
The Power Cord AC leads are contained within a
black clip that can be removed from the Electronic
Speed Control Board with needle nose pliers.
