or shaft seals. These parts are lubricated and
sealed at the factory and do not require any further
lubrication.
2. Reduce amounts of material processed to less than
the full 4-liter capacity when working with viscous or
brous materials.
3. When cleaning exterior of container, keep it in normal,
upright operating position to prevent liquids from
running into the bearing through the bottom end.
HOT BLENDING INSTRUCTIONS: IMPORTANT!
To minimize the possibility of scalding when blending hot
materials, the following precautions and procedures must be
observed:
• Hot materials are those that are 100˚F (38˚C) or hotter.
• Always start blending on lowest speed setting, then
progress to desired speed.
• Never stand directly over blender when it is being started
or while it is running.
• Constant monitoring of the condition of the container lid
gasket and the container lid clamps is mandatory. Replace
these parts if they become worn or loose, or are damaged
in any way.

Hot Blending Lid Instructions
Model number: CBL10
CAUTION
DO NOT BLEND HOT MATERIALS UNTIL BLENDER
AND HOT BLENDING LID ARE CORRECTLY
ASSEMBLED. WHEN BLENDING HOT MATERIALS
ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND
THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE 4 LITER BLENDER
OPERATING MANUAL.
TO ASSEMBLE:
1. Place lid with gasket over bafe cup and rotate lid
counterclockwise until locking tabs snap into place with
locking tab locks.
2. Place lid, with bafe cup attached, on top of container
and lock with locking clips on container.
Caution – DO NOT COVER ANY HOLES OR OPENINGS
IN THIS LID WHEN HOT BLENDING.
Important – The gasket mounted on the underside of the
hot blending lid is a critical component. If it shows signs of
cuts, tears, cracking, drying out, wear or other deterioration,
it must be immediately replaced before further use. Do not
overll container; maximum capacity is 4 liters.
TO DISASSEMBLE:
1. Be sure blender is turned off and lid has cooled.
2. Remove container from base.
3. Release locking clips on container and lift lid off.
4. Holding bafe cup, rotate lid clockwise until locking tabs
snap open and lift lid off bafe cup.

13
Caution – This hot blending lid retains hot liquids after
use. Let cool and handle carefully when disassembling.
MAINTENANCE
Motor – Not for water-jet cleaning.
The Waring Commercial Blender ball-bearing motor requires
no greasing or oiling. Sealed-in lubrication provides smooth
unit operation.
Container – The stainless steel or copolyester container can
be sterilized without injury to the bearing.
Container pad is to be washed and rinsed in solutions as
noted in the Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions.
Depending on the operating conditions, service life of the
main components of the container blade assembly, socket
head shaft and shaft seals is 500 hours of actual running time.
When any one of these main components has worn to the
extent that replacement is required, it is likely that the other
components will need to be replaced also. It is therefore
recommended that container blade assemblies be replaced
as a unit.
Die-cast lock nut must be tightened securely (65 to 70 foot-
pounds torque) when reassembling container.

service center).
NOTE:All parts require constant monitoring for conditions
requiring replacement. For assistance, contact your nearest
service center.
CLEANING AND SANITIZING INSTRUCTIONS
THE CONTAINER MUST BE CLEANED AND DRIED
AFTER EACH USE OF THE BLENDER ACCORDING TO
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY ALLOW RESIDUE OF
PROCESSED MATERIAL TO COLLECT ON THE INTERNAL
SEALS OF THE BLADE ASSEMBLY, RENDERING THEM
INEFFECTIVE.
• Wash, rinse, sanitize and dry container prior to initial
use and whenever it will not be used again within a period
of 1 hour.
• Wash and rinse container after each use.
• Clean and sanitize motor base prior to initial use and
after each use.
• Washing solutions based on non-sudsing detergents and
chlorine-based sanitizing solutions having a minimum
chlorine concentration of 100 PPM are recommended.
The following washing, rinsing, and sanitizing solutions,
or their equivalents, may be used.

15
• In repetitive batch-processing applications, frequent
cleaning of the container will prolong the life of the blade
assembly. In no case should actual running time between
cleanings exceed one-half hour.
• Do not use container to store processed foods or
beverages.
TO WASH AND RINSE CONTAINER
1. REMOVE CONTAINER FROM MOTOR BASE.
Remove lid. Rinse container interior and lid under
running water. Add washing solution to container.
Scrub and ush out the container interior and lid to
dislodge and remove as much food residue as
possible. Empty container.
2. Wipe down exterior of container with a soft cloth or
sponge dampened with washing solution. Wash lid
and lid insert in fresh washing solution. Fill container
one-quarter full with fresh washing solution, cover
(with lid only), place on motor base and run on HI
speed for two (2) minutes. Empty container.
3. Repeat step 2 using clean rinse water in place of
washing solution.

2. Allow motor base to air-dry before using.
FOR LABORATORY AND INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
For laboratory and industrial applications, a cleaning/rinsing/
sanitizing/drying schedule similar to that given above for
foodservice applications should be followed, except that
the cleaning, rinsing and sanitizing media used must be
modied as required to be consistent with the materials
being processed.

17
For some applications involving the processing of aqueous
mixtures, a water-soluble cleaner, a water rinse, and a
water-soluble sanitizer may be adequate. In general,
however, suitable cleaning, rinsing, and sanitizing media
will have to be determined empirically, particularly for those
applications involving non-aqueous systems materials not
readily soluble in water.
In order to be effective, the cleaning solution used must
be capable of breaking up any residues left in the container
after use, either by dissolving them, emulsifying them,
reacting chemically with them, or by some other mechanism.
In order to allow complete removal of the mixture of
broken-up residue and cleaning solution, this mixture must,
in turn, be either soluble in the rinse medium, or easily
suspended by it.
In applications where sanitization of the container is required
after cleaning, the sanitizing solution must mix compatibly
with any trace liquid that remains after rinsing.
IF YOUR APPLICATION INVOLVES THE PROCESSING
OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE MATERIALS, AND SHOULD
SERVICE ON YOUR UNIT EVER BE NEEDED, WE
REQUEST THAT ANY PARTS OR ASSEMBLIES BEING
RETURNED BE STERILIZED BY AUTOCLAVING BEFORE
BEING SHIPPED. IN ADDITION, ALL SUCH PARTS
MUST BE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED AS HAVING BEEN
AUTOCLAVED BOTH BY A TAG OR LABEL ON THE PART
ITSELF, AND BY A STATEMENT IN THE ACCOMPANYING
CORRESPONDENCE.
THE DISTRIBUTOR WILL NOT ACCEPT DELIVERY OF
SUCH PARTS UNLESS THEY ARE SO IDENTIFIED.
