CLEANING
BLADE REMOVAL
Pliers recommended.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock and injury to
persons, unplug the circulator before removing blade.
1. First, remove the nut from the shaft by turning the
nut clockwise to loosen. Remove the washer. Pull the
blade straight out from the shaft.
2. Wipe the Blade with a damp cloth. If your circulator
is used in a greasy environment, such as a kitchen,
mild soap or a common household cleaner may be
necessary. Do not use solvents. Do not place blade
in the dishwasher. The excessive heat can distort the
plastic.
3. To reattach - be certain the flat side of the shaft
aligns directly with the corresponding flat side on
the blade's socket. Push the blade all the way on
the shaft until it bottoms out. Do not use a hammer
as this could result in bearing damage. Reinstall
washer and nut.
