DESCRIPTION & ASSEMBLY OF PARTS
1. Filler Cap - Insert Cap into Lid by aligning tabs and slots. Turn
clockwise to lock. Turn counter-clockwise to remove.
2. Lid – Push Lid onto Jar until upper Lid ledge is flush with upper lip
of Jar. Ensure that the Lid is securely positioned before operating
the Blender. Extra care must be taken especially when handling hot
liquids.
3. Jar – 2 Litre/Quart Jar made from durable BPA free Triton with Cup
and milliliter markings. Place Jar on Centering Platform, ensuring
that it is well seated.
4. Blades – 8 stainless steel blades provide multi-purpose and
consistent blending.
5. Centering Platform –Pad which holds the Jar in place on the Blender
Base. It can be removed for cleaning but must be repositioned
before using the Blender.
6. Locking Nut – Fastens Blades securely to Jar.
7. Drive Socket – Hardened metal socket where Jar connects with
Motor Base to turn the Blades
8. Blender Base – Powerful motor housed in a durable plastic container
that contains the control panel.
9. On/Off Switch – The Blender is off when the Switch is in the down
position (O). With the Speed Control turned to the lowest setting
and the Jar/Lid properly installed, toggle the ON/OFF Switch up to
the (I) position to operate the Blender.
3

10. Pulse Switch – With the Jar/Lid properly installed, press down
on this Switch to operate the Blender momentarily at the highest
speed. The Blender will run at this speed as long as the Pulse Switch
is held down. The Pulse function can be used when the ON/OFF
Switch is in either the ‘I’ or ‘O’ position. The Blender will return to its
previous speed or stop when the Pulse Switch is released.
11. Variable Speed Control – Control the rotational speed of the Blades
by turning the Speed Control, clockwise to increase and counter
clockwise to decrease.
12. Power Cord – Grounded (3 prong) 120 volt cord
13. Feet – 4 rubber anti-slip feet
14. Tamper – Designed specifically for this Blender, the Tamper will help
to safely move blocked ingredients without contacting the Blades.
It is intended to be used only when the Lid is in position and food
stops circulating in the Jar. Remove the Cap and Insert the Tamper
up to the stopper. Hold the Jar handle with one hand and with the
other move the Tamper in both a circular and up/down motion to
unblock the contents of the Jar.
15. Cord Wrap Retainer - flexible Cord Wrap Retainers hold the excess
power cord in position. Unwind the Power Cord to the desired
length leaving the unused portion stored under the Blender Base.
16. Overload Reset Button – To protect the motor of your Blender from
overheating during exceptional situations, the Blender will automati-
cally shut off. If this happens return the ON/OFF Switch to Off ‘O’
position, remove the Jar and wait for the motor to cool. After

NEVER attempt to set the Jar on or remove it from the Blender
Base while the motor is running.
NEVER operate the Blender Base without the Jar properly
positioned.
6. Set the Speed Control to minimum and turn on the blender. Slowly
increase speed as required. The Jar may move slightly as it locates
on the Centering Platform. Let the Blender run until the desired
consistency or temperature has been reached.
7. If the contents stop circulating, DO NOT rock or shake the Jar while
the motor is running. Using the Pulse function or the Tamper will
help. First, Switch the On/Off button to Off Position (‘O’). Then
either:
a) pulse on and off by pressing and releasing the Pulse Switch.
or
b) turn the Speed Control to the lowest setting, remove the Cap and
insert the Tamper through the Lid opening. NOTE: Tamper should
not be used when the Jar is more than ¾full. Switch to the On
position (‘I’). Hold the Jar handle with one hand and with the other
move the Tamper in both a circular and up/down motion to unblock
the contents of the Jar.
5

DO NOT use Tamper for longer than 45 seconds as this may cause

Blades have completely stopped rotating before removing or
reaching into the Jar.
10. Unplug from the wall outlet and remove the Jar by lifting up.
WARNING: The Drive Socket, Locking Nut and Blades may
become very hot after extended use. DO NOT touch. Allow to cool
down before handling or cleaning.
BLENDING DRY INGREDIENTS
• Always review the General Use instructions above.
• DO NOT operate the Blender continuously for more than 90
seconds when processing dry ingredients.
• When chopping nuts or other dry mixtures, ensure even chopping
by adding more than enough ingredients to cover the Blades
• With Jar in place on Blender Base turn the Speed Control
counter-clockwise to the minimum setting. Flip the On/Off Switch
to On position (‘I’). Then slowly increase the speed to the
appropriate level. Take care to not over-process.
• For more accurate control of the blending process use the Pulse
function and stop processing when the contents have reached the
desired size or consistency.
• NOTE: Chopping/grinding hard ingredients may scratch or mar the
inside of the Jar. This will in no way alter the performance of your
Blender. However, over time continue use in this manner may dull
the Blades or cause cracks to appear in the Jar.
• NOTE: Some ingredients may cause discoloration of or impart odors
to the Jar that remain even after cleaning.
BLENDING HOT LIQUIDS
• Always review all the General Use instructions above.
• WARNING: When filling the Jar with hot liquids take care to
prevent splashing that could cause injury.
• Allow hot liquids to stand for a few moments to permit steam to
escape before processing.

Cap is turned clockwise and securely locked into the Lid. Then push
the Lid/Cap firmly onto the Jar.
NEVER remove the Cap or add ingredients while the hot contents
are being processed.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving a Jar containing hot
liquids.
• With Jar in place on Blender Base turn the Speed Control
counter-clockwise to the minimum setting. Flip the On/Off Switch
to the On position (‘I’) then slowly increase the speed to maximum.
Allow the Blender to run until the desired temperature or
consistency is reached.
• DO NOT remove the Lid, Cap or Jar until the Blender is switched
to the Off position (‘O’), the Cord has been unplugged and the
blades have stopped turning.
• Once the Jar has been removed from the Blender, carefully twist
and lift off the Cap to permit excess steam to escape.
CAUTION: The Cap may be hot.
• WARNING: The Drive Socket, Locking Nut and Blades become very
hot. DO NOT touch. Allow to cool down before handling or cleaning.
HELPFUL HINTS
• While the motor is running, ingredients can be added, with care,
through the Filler Cap opening in the center of the Lid. When
processing hot ingredients do not add ingredients through the Filler
Cap.
