WARNING
Rotating Blades Can Cause Severe Injury.
DO NOT reach into the container while the machine
is running.
Wet-Blade Container: Designed for processing liquids, including juice, frozen mixtures,
sauces, soup, purees, batter, and for wet chopping. The wet blades can also process grain
and knead dough, but they are not quite as efficient as the dry blades in this application.
See instructions for dry container use.
Dry-Blade Container: These blades are clearly marked “D” and are designed specifically
for processing dry materials such as grain, cereal and coffee, and are also used for
kneading bread dough. The dry blades CANNOT process liquids efficiently. If you prepare
herbs on a regular basis, you may wish to purchase a separate dry-blade container.

The wet-blade container comes as standard with the Vitamix machine. The blade is identified by a “W”
for wet. This blade is used for most of your recipes. Additional containers with wet or dry blades may be
purchased separately.
