Setup and Installation
Inspect the Extractor Blade
Before first use, carefully inspect the rubber gasket located in the bottom blade assembly. Ensure it is snugly and securely seated within the blade unit. A loose gasket can lead to leaks during operation.

Attach the Blade to the Cup
Place your ingredients into either the 18oz or 24oz blender cup. Screw the extractor blade assembly onto the open end of the cup, turning clockwise until it is tightly sealed. Do not overtighten.

Place on Blender Base
Invert the assembled cup and blade, and place it onto your Ninja blender's motor base. Align the tabs on the cup with the slots on the base, then twist clockwise until it locks into place. The blender will not operate unless the cup is securely locked.
Operating Instructions
Once the cup and blade are securely attached to the blender base, you can begin blending. Refer to your original Ninja blender manual for specific blending programs and safety guidelines.
- Do not overfill the cups. Ensure ingredients do not exceed the "MAX LIQUID" line.
- Avoid continuous operation for extended periods. If blending for more than 1 minute, allow the motor to rest for a few minutes to prevent overheating.
- Never operate the blender with an empty cup or without the blade assembly securely attached.
Using the Spout Lids
After blending, remove the blade assembly and replace it with a spout lid for easy drinking or pouring. Press the flip-top spout firmly to ensure a secure seal.
