![]() ![]() We do have new better working blending jars with sharp efficient advanced blending knives. Or else replace the whole jar with blade. Replace the blade if the jar is still good. If there is and/or you experience leakage on the bottom, immediately remove the blade assembly and inspect the jar and the blade. Solution 2: Make sure the blade assembly works well and there is no rust around the gear. This occurs mostly when the blade assembly is starting to seize up or has already seized and you keep blending with it and in addition the bottom plate may not be completely tight, or tight enough. Problem 2: Jars, if they do crack, they mostly crack on the very bottom around the hole where the blade assem bly inserted into the jar. If your blade has seized up, or shows signs of seizing (roughness of turning, noisier blending, smoke / smell), replace the blade right away to prevent further damage to the driver socket. Don’t leave jar in sink with water puddle or wash in dishwasher. For additional sanitizing, use a non-caustic water-diluted spray on sanitizing solution to briefly apply to the inside of the jar. Solution 1: Always wash or rinse the blender jar by hand and then dry by hand to limit water exposure. That said, there are in both cases preventative solutions that can help you preserve the blade assembly bearing and help you get more usage out of it There is a big advantage if you have a jar with a removable blade assembly because you just change the blade – see to the right – if you run into a problem. If that breaks, you cannot just change the blade assembly, but you have to change the entire jar. With the Blendtec blender jars (Wildside, Fourside, Twister), as the picture above left indicates, the blades are permanent fix installed. When the blade seizes it can also transfer energy to the drive socket and snap it or strip it (Drive socket is on the blender motor). This will lead to oil exit on the bottom outside of the where the gear sticks out of the blender container. They become much louder and hotter when there is more friction due to bad bearings. Bearings are getting hot already when they are in good condition. This leads to damage to the bearings which then will not turn smoothly anymore. You will see rust powder coming out on the bottom end of the blade assembly at the gear seal. Problem 1: When you over-expose a blade bearing of your blender jar to water too much, water gets into the blade assembly housing and will wash out grease. If you blend heavy low-water-content ingredients (puree) you can get temporarily stuck or have a little delay getting the vortex / swirling of the smoothie miracle going - Use a tamper or when blending smoothies, make sure the solids to water ratio is right for the vortex.Jars can crack - Keep bottom plate tightened.Blade bearings (and bushings) can seize up - Rinse and dry by hand only.Problems and solutions (most common) that could arise during blending: So let’s go over a few things to help you extend the life of your blender blades and jars, regardless of what brand of a blender you have. You have already a great blender, either that being a Blendtec, Vita Mix, Waring, or an Omni blender.īlenders don’t easily break, but the blades and jars wear out. But what our business is really about is healthy equipment so you can blend up your healthy foods. I could be talking about healthy foods this time. ![]()
