Instructions are
included for repairing the coupler/clutch/coupling on the KitchenAid blenders:
The blender's rubber coupling
is designed to break if the blender is under strain.
This will often happen if the
food being chopped is too hard or being chopped at too higher speed. The part
failing prevents the motor from more severe damage. The coupler/clutch has six
rubber teeth which grip the underside of the blade in the blending jug. The
clutch is secured to the blender spindle (which is made of steel) with a
reverse aluminium thread. i.e. you turn clockwise to undo it which is the
opposite to normal.
There are two ways to remove
the old clutch.
First you can use a thin 7mm
spanner to grip the flats on the spindle under the coupler then turn the
coupler clockwise. Second you can use a large flat bladed screwdriver to gently
prise the coupler off the spindle. If you use the second method the aluminium
thread in the coupler will be stripped as aluminium is softer. This is not a
problem as the coupler will need replacing anyway. Make sure you clean off any
pieces of aluminium left in the thread on the spindle.
Thanks for looking.
