KSB5SSOB4 KitchenAid Blender - Instructions

using the screw driver I pryed up on the old coupling as out line in the instructions that came with the part. The old part cam off easily and the new one just screwed on. The replacement took only a few minutes.

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.

I couldn't unscrew the old coupling (left hand thread) so I carefully sawed a piece off being careful (the somewhat difficult part of the job) not to damage the threads on the drive motor. Then I used pliers to remove the rest of the drive coupling. Then it's just a matter of screwing on the new coupling. Good as new and I didn't have to ... Read more buy a new $150 blender.

i used the screwdriver method prying up on side to side old one comes off new one goes on pretty cool also it was a nice long flat head with pretty big head

Pry off the old, clean up drive threads, thread on the new one. easy as pie

It was harder than the directions said to get the old drive coupling off, but once the old was taken off, it was a piece of cake to put the new one on.

Thanks, great service from this website, received my part the next day after I ordered it!

simple clear instructions to follow

place screwdriver under old coupler and pried up on it in different spots until it popped off. Took less than 5 min. to do.

Part is left hand thread. Use screwdriver to lock motor fins and twist off part.

Used a wrench 19/64 flat

The repair is easy. Just follow the directions that come with the replacement part. And parts select is awesome. I received the parts within a couple of days and fixed it right away.

I will definitely use this company again. The blender was over $120 when I brought it and I did not want to spend that kind of money again. My co ... Read more st to fix was about $8.00 for the part and $7.00 for shipping. Hmmmm, $15 vs. $120+ sounds like a good deal to me.
Thank you.

Following the instructions which was quite clear.

I followed the instructions on the sheet that came with the replacement part. The instructions are accurate, however, the working is misleading. I think additional information is needed to make the install easier. First, a flat head screwdriver works best. Also, all the rubber that is on the broken coupling needs to be removed before tryi ...

Once all the rubber has been removed then it becomes easier to see the metal rod that holds the coupling and distance between the coupling and the base of the blender, take the screwdriver and gently pry the coupling off in an upward movement while going around in a circular manner. Then you can see the coupling rising up from the rod. Then take a hold of the broken coupling and pull it off. Then attach the new coupling, screwing it on counterclockwise. Once you realize what is going on, it's actually quite easy.

Went easy
