1.Before using the blender for the first time, it is recommended that the blender jar cover, closure/funnel and blade/base assembly, gasket and locking ring be washed. All components, except the blade/base assembly, are dishwasher safe. Remove the blade/base assembly from the blender:

First remove the locking ring, as shown in figure 6a and 6b. Then turn the blender over so that the base is facing upward, as shown in figure 7, and remove the blade assembly by turning

the blade assembly counterclockwise until it stops and then lift up see figures 7c and 7e.

Figure 6.

CAUTION

Blade/base assembly is very sharp. Handle with care.

Figure 7.

If the blade assembly is too tight to turn by hand, the locking ring may be used to loosen the blade assembly, as shown in figure 7d. After loosening, turn the blade assembly counterclockwise until it stops and then lift up. The gasket may be removed for cleaning, as shown in figure 7f.

Wash the blade/base assembly under running water. Do not place the blade/ base assembly in the dishwasher or allow it to stand in water. This will tend to wash out the lubricant. After cleaning, rinse thoroughly and dry before using.

2.To assemble or reassemble blade/base assembly into the blender, reverse the steps that were used in the above to remove it.

3.The blender is used in mode 3, see table 1. To place the blender on the power unit the arm must be rotated to the down position. Depress the release button, see 4a, and lower the arm so that the arm is vertical and the highspeed drive is straight up. If you have not already done so, remove the motor drive cover from the high-speed drive and place the blender on the high-speed drive and turn counterclockwise to lock the blender in place.

Placing Blender into Operation

Make sure that the power unit’s rotary switch is in the off position, “O/Off.” Pull the electrical cord or unwind it to the necessary length and then plug into the wall outlet. The blender is now ready for operation.

Normally when blending, the blender jar should be filled with the entire amount of material to be blended, if possible, before switching the appliance to On. The cover and cover closure should always be in place after filling the blender jar and before switching the power unit to On. Any subsequent additions to the blended material should be made through the cover opening, see figure 8. For solids and/or granular material, remove the cover closure/ funnel to add the material, as shown in figure 8a. For liquids, the closure/funnel may be left in place and the liquids can be added by pouring them into the closure/ funnel, see figure 8b.

Example of Use of Blender

To familiarize you with the operation of the blender, a sample recipe for mayonnaise is provided below:

Mayonnaise Recipe 1 whole egg

1/3 cup of vegetable oil

2tablespoons lemon juice or light vinegar

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon dry mustard 1/2 teaspoon of salt

2/3 cup of vegetable oil

Mix all ingredients, except final 2/3’s cup of oil, for a few seconds at speed 1, then quickly pour the oil in through the opening in the cover in a uniformly thick stream, as shown in figure 8b. Operate the blender at speeds 1 or 4 until mixture is thick and smooth (approximately 1020 seconds). Makes 1 1/4 cups.

Tips:

The blender should be operated with careful consideration as to what is required and/or desired. The speed at which the blender is operated and the length of operation for a given job will depend upon the degree of fineness desired or the amount being blended.

When the blender is being used on dry materials, such as nuts or bread, the best results will be obtained when the blender jar is filled with approximately 1/2 cup of material to be blended. If the blender does not start (even after trying the highest speed), the blade has become blocked by the contents. The power unit should be:

1.Switched to off, “O/Off,” and unplugged.

2.The mixture should be removed and the contents at the bottom of the jar loosened.

Removing Contents

Before beginning to remove the contents from the blender, make sure that the power unit has been turned to off position “O/Off.” Remove the blender from the power unit by turning the blender clockwise while lifting. With the blender removed from the power unit, the contents of the blender may now be poured into a suitable container or bowl, as desired. Replace the cover on the highspeed drive.

Care and Cleaning of Blender

All components of the blender, except the blade/base assembly, are dishwasher safe. It is recommended that the blade/base assembly be cleaned only under flowing water rather than in the dishwasher. Soap and detergent will tend to wash out the bearing lubricant of the blade/base assembly. Do not use scouring cleaners on any of the blender parts.

The power unit of the kitchen machine should be cleaned with a clean, damp cloth only. Never use coarse or caustic cleaning products to clean this appliance. Never immerse the power unit in water.
