important that you follow a few simple maintenance tips:
1. Periodically inspect the drive socket for visible wear and tear, cracks, or breaks to the
socket. If damage is found, replace the drive socket with the extra drive socket enclosed
with your blender. To purchase additional replacement drive sockets contact Vitamix on

authorised Vitamix Distributor, or call the Vitamix International Division on +1 440 782 2450
or email [email protected] to find a distributor near you.
2. Manually rotate the blade-bearing assembly to make sure that it turns without hesitation
or doesn't spin too freely. If the blade hesitates or spins too freely, contact Vitamix on
+1 800 437 4654 for warranty information or to find a dealer near you. For customers
outside the U.S.A., contact your authorised Vitamix Distributor, or call the Vitamix

Maintenance Tips
Never bang the container against a surface to loosen the ingredients. Remove the
•
container from the base and use a rubber spatula to remove thick mixtures from the
bottom of your container.
•
Never shake or rattle a container while in use.
Never remove the container before the machine has come to a complete stop.
•
•
Never start the motor before the container is in place.
•
Check your blades daily. If you find something is loose, nicked or missing, replace the
blade assembly before use. Do not tighten the hex bolt (on top of the blade assembly).
If loose, replace the blade assembly.
IMPORTANT NOTES!
The automatic overload protection shuts the motor off to protect the motor. The motor may
stop working if it has overloaded or overheated. If the motor shuts off, it could be due to:
• The recipe being too thick
• The recipe having too many ingredients in it
• The recipe was being processed too long at too low a speed
If the motor shuts off, review your processing techniques and your instructions.
Resettable Circuit Breaker: When the circuit breaker pops out, it does so to protect
the motor from electrical overload. If this occurs, it can be easily reset by gently pushing it
back into place.
Thermal Protector: The thermal protector may shut the motor off to protect it
from overheating. To restart, wait for the motor to cool down with the power off (up
to 45 minutes). Cooling may be quickened by placing the motor base in a cool spot.
(Unplug first.) To speed up the process, try circulating the air with a vacuum or fan aimed
at the bottom of the base. If the motor seems to be overheating but the thermal overload
protector has not turned the machine off, stop the machine and remove the container
from the base. Set the dial to Variable 10 for the Variable-Speed machine or press the
pulse switch for the Programmable machine. Turn the machine on and let the machine run
for 1 minute. Be careful never to touch any moving parts while in use. If both protection
devices are activated, follow the instructions for resetting the circuit breaker, and then cool
the motor according to the instructions for the thermal protector.
