This happened to me as well. I didn't disassemble and clean right away after previous batch and the trace amounts of flour mixture seemed to cure and settle around the blade area. Soaking, wiggling, rotating, oiling were no match for the super-glue strong bond. The blade would not come off. Embarrassed I approached my other half. Like a superhero he took my loaf pan into his garage, pulled out a rather formidable looking crowbar . . . I couldn't watch . . .soon he returned with my loaf pan in one hand and the blade in the other.

On the blade end of the handle there should be a little black plastic piece blocking the knife from closing. Push that back to the side it comes from

Check your manual, but I'm pretty sure you have to completely remove the end of the blade clamp. You can then thread it back on while holding the blade in place. Good luck, the Rockwell is a great tool, but those blades are pricey$

To take out the blade you simply pull the blade/component you want out. To unlock it/fold it back in, press down on the flat piece of metal right below the circular hinge (it actually has a very small picture of an opened lock on it) - this will release the lock on the blade and allow you to fold it back in. I hope this helps! :)

It is possible that the blade is not all the way in. Mine had to be turned a little and carefully pushed in to the appropriate position. But once I got it on and tried to start it IT froze up on me. I could 't get it appear and ended up sending it back dirty. I DIDN't get another. I got a different brand. I hope you have a better experience than I did. Good luck.

Just pull and it will comes out. May be your didn't changed for a longtime so it might be glued in. Pull hard.

I tried and tried to "wiggle" it to remove. No luck. Had I known - I would not have bought it. However it works well. Will continue to push the blades out and run over hot water to clean.

There's a white plastic thing right below the blade. it's to cover the sharp blade when not in use. Just push it out. :)

You twist the bottom part of the handle which unscrews the base of the blade holder from the top part, you then can just take off the top and it will leave the blade exposed. You then just pop out the old blade with a new one, and return the top back on and tighten the mechanism with the handle again

I did that too. I turned it up side down and where I saw slots I carefully pulled them out and lifted the cover off and got the blade out. After that I discovered that all I needed to do was turn the blade until it was positioned for the dots to line up and it would come out.

I struggled with it too and gave it to my husband. He detached it easily so it isn't the blade; it was me. He thinks he might have pushed it in a little before twisting. Good luck. It really works great when it works!

There is a button near the blade, inside the handle. Its the lock. Push it and you will be able to close the blade

Don- I bought the same slicer and you need to remove the blade to properly clean. Remove the lock nut for the center plate and remove, remove the sharpener, remove the 3 screws that hold the blade and the blade will come out. That make cleaning much easier. My cleaning ti,mes have gone from 30 minutes down to about 10. Use a anti bacterial whip after all the debris has been removed. do a final wipe down with a clean towel and dry when you are complete and re-assemble

You have to take out the screw and pull it apart. You will also find your blades once you take it apart.

I took the blade off to clean it. Be advised the blade is very sharp. Watch how u handle it.

It's very easy. There are three pieces that come apart. Unscrew the handle from the top part and remove all three. The blade fits in between the top two pieces and the handle locks the all together when you screw it back in. Hope this helps.

There's a little triangular piece at the top corner where the blade meets the handle. Just turn that triangle forward a couple clicks and the knife should come out. The trick is out a little bit then up out of the ABS. Hope that helps.
