    • Use pliers to grip the gear inside of the top of the device.

    • You may have to remove a sticker that is covering the slit at the center of the bottom before completing the next step.

    • Insert a flathead screwdriver into the slit at the bottom of the device while still holding the pliers in place gripped on the gear.

    • Lay the device on its side. Holding the screwdriver stationary to hold the bottom side in place, use the pliers to unscrew the gear by turning the pliers CLOCKWISE.

    Can you replace the base gear in a Mini Bullet? I am having a hard time unscrewing it.

I am sure a black plastic piece that held the blades tight has broken off. I found pieces of it. How do I replace that piece and where can I get it? Everything is working fine, the motor is turning. The blade is too loose to stay in place while engaged.

Mine did while I was using it, looking for the same answer, I don't want to go out and buy a whole new set

It can't be that both my sets of blades are bent. Should the clear plastic piece in the turn by hand?

Mine is on but the motor is working but the blades aren't spinning

Glued too hard. The old industrial revolution greed trick of having critical parts made of plastic to interface with metal. Programmed obsolescence. Garbage once broken. This guide should be rated difficult.

Hi that clear circular plastic piece, mine doesnt turn nor does the fan under the nutribullet .. I think it may be jammed. I took apart the bullet and tried to spin the fan on the underside but it wont budge ! Please help !
