• The retainer nut is easily removed using the Retainer Nut
Wrench. To order a Retainer Nut Wrench please call your
Vita-Mix distributor and ask for Item #15596.
• To remove, turn the container upside. Using the Retainer Nut
Wrench turn the wrench counterclockwise to loosen the nut.
Once loosened, remove by hand.
• To replace, position retainer nut on top of blade assembly

tighten clockwise until it stops. If it is not tight enough, you
will notice increased container noise.
