how to screw jar into base so it doesn't move

if the jar is moving, it's not seated properly in the metal stem. Place the jar on the base and gently turn it left or right until it drops down about 1/4".

No sure what you're having a problem with. It it's the black plastic base that holds the blade and gasket in you should tighten it well but not tight enough to crack the plastic. If you are talking about the Fully assembled jar onto the motorized base then make sure the jar is sitting on the metal stem and the metal stem goes up into the blade. If the jar is sitting properly on the metal stem and you lock the glass wings against the motor base it shouldn't move.

The only thing I can think of is to make sure the "ears" on the lower part of the carafe butt against the pegs on the mixer. That leaves the handle at a right angle to the face of the base. Hope that helps.

I simply position it so the stoppers on the bottom of the jar engage the stoppers on the base

Good question, although I've never had that problem. I've always been able to hold the jar just fine and use the opener to open the lid without any problem, because the opener is so efficient (and believe me, I have no strength in my hands). However, if I did have that problem, I would probably use a towel that had some roughness to it to get a good grip on the jar without it slipping out of my hand. Good luck!!

You just twist it slightly in a clockwise motion. It should only rotate slightly as it locks. The top and bottom have these little divots in which the top can slide in and allow to lock into place.

My lamps have holes at the base of the lamps, on the side so that the lamp is not resting on the cord. If you have a jar with a hole drilled into the side, it seems that would be ok. What you don't want is for the lamp to be wobbly due to a cord running under the base with no hole or no groove. Can you insert the cord and then set the lamp onto a flat surface to check for stability?

In case of a jam you can insert a Phillips screwdriver film the top. I've never had a jam and several reviews mention never jamming.

If the seal is too tight I use a bottle cap opener. I will also turn the jar upside down and give the bottom a firm hit a few times. Hope this helps :)

Unscrew it. Grab Base with Left Hand and the Top with your right hand, then twist your Right hand Counter-Clockwise. It seals pretty tightly so it might be difficult, but it will come loose.

Up against the glass base, the gray rubbery gasket will be placed. This keeps the liquid from oozing out the bottom. Then place the steel blades inside the glass jar, from the bottom, with the gray gasket in between the glass jar and the round base of the steel blades. Last comes the black plastic bottom, which screws on---it should screw on easily if placed right. Make sure it is tight.Then place the whole assembled jar onto the motor base and rotate the jar slightly, until it settles into the motor base. If done correctly, the blender will run smoothly when you push a button.Don't forget the lid! Up against the glass base, the gray rubbery gasket will be placed.

I use jar that has rim with the diameter of 4.2 inches and it folds over the rim loosely. Hope this helps.

Take off the little white cap of top, then pull outside cover (the decorated plastic) off, turn it upsidedown, carefully turn the cap off to the left.fill with distilled water and your drops of essential oils if you use, put cap back on And then I put base in place while it is inside down and the quickly and carefuel turn it right side up holding it together:)

I just had my husband tighten it and that solved the problem. However, had that not worked, I was planning on putting a piece of gripper pad (the kind you can get at the dollar store for opening jars) around the bar under the clamp.

Get a can of air and spray it into the corners. Something as small as a piece of sand can jam the movement.

Try tucking it in a corner, if that doesn't work, use those 3m velcro strips to secure the base. I lodged the cord under a hutch foot, so it didn't move.

The base fits snugly into the stand so it doesn't slide. A couple of times I picked up the stand and the bottom base didn't come with it. Just pick it up from the very bottom part.

Get someone stronger to twist it. Use some of those jar gripper things. Keep saying bad words to it until it loosens up. ? ;)

Open the jar, fill with water. Then put the top back on the jar and carry it to the spot where it will hang. Then flip the jar over and the water should stay in the jar and all should be well.

Turn the black base. This will separate the glass jar. The blade, the grey rubber ring (gasket) and the black base should be together now. Just flip the black base and the blade + gasket should fall out. There is no trick here. The gasket is always on the top of the blade. I am not sure I quite understand your question though. What exactly is the problem?
