How to Determine the Tamper that Can Be Used with Your
Container
Each type of tamper is designed to be used safely and effectively with a particular
container. If a tamper came with your container, it is the correct tamper for the
container. If a tamper did not come with your container, or you want to determine if
a tamper that you already have can be used with your new container, please compare
your container with the containers and matching tampers to the illustration below.
Before using the tamper during the blending process, verify that it is the correct

tamper.

• 64 oz. Short Containers use Tamper P/N 016041 that is approximately 11 inches long.
• 64 oz. Tall Containers use Tamper P/N 000760 that is approximately 12-1/2 inches long.
• 32 oz. and 48 oz. Containers use Tamper P/N 015033 that is approximately 9-3/4 inches
long.
To verify that you are using the correct tamper, place the lid on an empty container,
remove the lid plug and insert the tamper. If it is the correct tamper it should easily
fit into the opening but will not come in contact with the blades no matter how you
move the tamper inside the container. IF THE TAMPER TOUCHES THE BLADES AT
ANY ANGLE - DO NOT USE THE TAMPER WITH YOUR CONTAINER.
If you do not have the correct tamper for your container, Contact Tel. UK: 0808 156
6633, Tel. Ireland: 0766 709854 immediately to order a new tamper.
