Is there a trick to detatching the chopper lid from the handle when you first take it out of the box?

gently twist, it's like a quarter twist and pull for both the handle to the lid and handle to the stick blender. It's initially sticky out of the box.

It's not that easy. I just tried to remove it for the first time and took me about 2 min. Best way seems to pry it off from the top down.

On mine, the clear plastic circle/handle was detachable from the rest of the black plastic lid. That way you could add ingredients through the hole/opening with the blender running.

You might need to tighten the handle somewhat on your own, when you take it out of the box. Just use a basic screwdriver. It has not been a problem for me since doing this.

I have a swivel circle at the end of the handle, too and I can't figure it out. I've tried to remove it thinking it was there to hold the tag but I can't get it off!

Yes you must make sure the lock is off, then, turn the lid using the lid's plastic handles.

Ah... :)You take a screwdriver that fits the screw and unscrew it as you would usually do (anti-clockwise).After a couple of turns it seems like the screw no longer holds the cover (the lid got a bit separated from the body), but it still won't come off, does it? :)Well, at this point you need to insert something thin (your fingernail?) in the crack between the cover and the body and just pull.Try pulling not from the center, but a bit closer to one of the edges - the cover latches to the body near the edges...

You can reduce the height of the chopper. Press all the way down on the top, keep it there, then slide the button over. It locks the top into the down position.

My husband took a hacksaw and made 2 slits in the right rear of the lid. Then drilled a few small holes and popped the square out. The tube now does not have to be undone to remove the lid. I have a picture but don't see any way of attaching.

Hold opener parallel to the top of the can, and clamp on. You don't need to clamp very hard. Then turn handle clockwise. The other direction will not work. Use the pliers to take the lid off.

I successfully separated the handle from the cup but now I cannot put it back together, rendering it basically useless. It seemed like it should be able to snap apart and snap back. Honestly, I even tried HAMMERING it back to snap back, to no avail. I would not recommend separating the cup and handle for cleaning.

Sorry...I just go this late. Lift the handle (it cant be locked in the base) and the lid releases. You also need to match it back up on the side with the arrow from the top of the lid...I believe its white arrow and needs to match up to the bottom piece. Hope this helps!

I am not sure what u are asking. The lid of the blender comes right off. I use my thumb to push up the lid right in front of the large handle. Lift up the small handle on the top lid and push up with your thumb where u see the indentation, in front of the arrow. Sometimes, I remove the rubber sealer to clean under it. When u remove the lid, if u cannot get the lid handle to go down flat, do not force it. Squeeze in the "button things" on each side together and push handle down

Press down on the Release button and then pull off. It is a bit rough at 1st but you will get it. Also, it helps if you hold opposite diagonal corners to pull off the lid.

I'm not sure what you mean but to get the lid off you lift the handle on the lid and pull as you hold the blender down.

It unscrews from the lid. You may have to be more forceful the first time you do it. I really enjoy it.

Make sure that you remove the outside blades first. Although it is a little bit tight, and stuck hair stubs will complicate matters, the center blade will certainly detach. First, rinse it thoroughly with warm water. Then, with gentle, but increasing pressure, and using thumb and index finger, nudge and twist it clockwise, then counter-clockwise, then pull back slightly, then repeat again, until it lets go. Don't use too much pressure, as the hinges can break. It is difficult to explain but, once you get the hang of it, you won't have any problems.
