Parts for Kitchenaid KSB650OB1: 01 - Unit Parts

The KitchenAid Blender Drive Coupler is an OEM part for KitchenAid blenders. This part connects the blender's motor to the blade assembly.

Causes for issues with the drive coupler often involve overloading the blender, blending hard or frozen ingredients without sufficient liquid, or simply the natural degradation of the component over time.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Blender Drive Coupler include:

• The blender's motor running, but the blades not spinning
• Visible wear or damage to the coupler's teeth
• Unusual noises during operation, indicating a misalignment or damage

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This replacement seal keeps liquids and food particles out of the blender motor housing to protect internal components and help prevent leaks. Fits the motor assembly where the shaft passes through the housing. What it does

• Seals the motor shaft opening to help prevent liquid from entering the motor housing.
• Reduces risk of motor damage or shorting caused by leaks into the base.
• Helps stop leaking at the blender base or around the blade assembly when worn.
• Replace if the seal is cracked, flattened, swollen, or shows visible wear.

• Always unplug the appliance before disassembly and removal of the jar or motor housing.
• Remove the blade and jar assembly per the service diagram to access the shaft seal; inspect mating surfaces and replace damaged components.
• Ensure the new seal is seated evenly around the shaft and in its groove; do not force or over-stretch the seal.
• After reassembly, run a short water test (with the unit unplugged from any direct water source) to check for leaks before normal use.
