Continue this until the coupler comes off the motor shaft. This is usually accomplished in 3 or 4 attempts. 4. Before installing the new coupler check the threads of the blender motor shaft and remove any metal shavings left from the removal of the old coupler. Place the new coupler on the motor shaft and turn counter clockwise until tight .
