Rotating Blades Can Cause Damage.
Lids and tampers are not interchangeable between
diferent container styles, types and sizes. Use the
tamper that was supplied with your machine.
How to Determine the Tamper to be Used with Your
Container
The tamper is designed to be used safely and eiciently with the
commercial containers. If a tamper came with your container, it is the
correct tamper for the container.
To verify that you are using the correct tamper, place the lid on an empty
container, remove the lid plug and insert the tamper. The tamper should
it easily into the lid opening but not make 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

or email commercial@vitamix.com. Outside of the US and Canada
on +1 440 782 2450 or email international@vitamix.com. If technical

DO NOT put hands, spatulas, etc. in
the container while the machine is
running or while the container is still
on the base.
Lids and tampers are not
interchangeable between diferent
container styles, types and sizes. Use
the tamper that was supplied with your
machine.
Do not force the tamper into the
0.9-litre container.
Do not use a tamper without a step in
any Vitamix commercial container.

IMPORTANT!

• The splash disc (near the top of the tamper) and lid prevent the
tamper from hitting the blades when the lid is secured properly in the
locked position.
• The container should not be more than two-thirds full when the
tamper is used during blending.
• To avoid overheating during blending, DO NOT use the tamper for
more than 30 consecutive seconds.
• If the food does not circulate, the machine may have a trapped air
bubble. Carefully remove the lid plug, while making sure the lid stays
irmly in place. Release the air bubble by inserting the tamper through
the lid plug opening.
• Holding the tamper straight down may not help the ingredients
circulate. If necessary, point the tamper towards the sides or corners
of the container. DO NOT try to force the tamper more deeply into
the container.
