MAINTAINING YOUR VITAMIX BLENDER
In order to maximize the life of and keep your Vitamix® product in good working order,
it is 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 Vita-Mix® Corporation (hereinafter "Vitamix") at (800) 866.5235
for a dealer near you. For customers outside the U.S.A., contact your authorized
Vitamix Distributor, or call the Vitamix International Division at +1 (440) 782.2450
or email international@vitamix.com for a distributor near you.
2. Manually rotate the blade bearing assembly to make sure it turns without hesitation
or doesn't spin too freely. If the blade hesitates or spins too freely, contact Vitamix
for warranty information or a dealer near you.
3. Never run the machine without the centering pad properly placed on the base and
never remove the container from the base before blending is complete and blades
have stopped moving.
