5KSB52SER4 KitchenAid Blender - Instructions

simple clear instructions to follow

Forget about the repair blogs. The coupling includes a repair instruction sheet. It actually took longer to read the sheet than it did to do the repair. Follow the repair sheet instructions. Very easy, however not intuitive.

After I discovered that it needed to be screwed on turning to the left it was simple.

Intructions were simple. Pried off the old coupling with the screwdriver and applied presser to replace the new one on the spindle.

Comment: KitchenAid appliances are made to last unlike most other small kitchen appliances. They are made of strong materials and repairable where as other similar products get thrown out when they break.

it was too easy, i only used my hand to screw the coupling to the blender.

It was very easy to unscrew the coupler I used locktight to put on the new part. Thank you sending
the right part the first time

Released cup drive with screw driver and un-screwed, screwed on new driver.
That is all, works like a new blender.

Just like the directions said, I pryed up on the coupling at a few points around it's circumference and it became loose enough to unscrew. I didn't believe it was going to work at first but, amazingly, it did. All that was left to do was screw on the new part. No problem!

Thanks to everyone before me and their stories!
I felt confident enough to try repairing my blender myself ! ! !
I just placed a flat head screw driver under the coupler and pushed up on the screw driver, 3 or 4 more times around the coupler. It broke away and a metal disc was left, which I unscrewed and I just screwed the new coupler on.
Thanks Again!

Followed the directions and used a screwdriver to pry off the old gear. Screwed the new one on - reverse thread. Easy as that.

used thin wire strippers to hold screw shat, than unscrewed one and screwed on the other. done

Popped off the old one and popped on the new one. It took no more then 30 seconds and the blender is like new again.

with a flat wrench grab the shaft and unscrew the coupling (note: left handed threads)... then install the replacement part.

I unscrewed the old coupling and screwed on the new coupling from Partselect.
This was a personal repair job.
However, I am a local Handyman in Northern NJ that does a ton of minor repairs. For all of my appliance part needs I will buy from Partselect.com. They under promised and over delivered! Just incase you dont know what I mean by that statement,,, I ordered the blender part, they told me I would have it in 6-10 days (which was acceptable to me) and I had it in two days... AWESOME job FOLKS!!!!!!!

The coupling split apart on my Kitchenaid Blender. I ordered the coupling part and "Bingo", I was back in business. It took no time at all and one screwdriver. I saved penty of money by not having to buy a new appliance.
