Um, I know this sounds dumb, but how do you remove the bowl from the holder. It seems to be in there pretty tight. Snappy it ain't.

One more tip... I tend to just kind of roll or rotate the bowl out (and in) of it's holder to avoid spilling water.

The bowl slides straight into the holder, which is bolted onto the cage. The bowl is held firmly enough that the animal won't knock it out accidentally, but can be removed by an adult human. I wouldn't do it while there is water in the bowl, it will probably spill if you try.

plastic flex rim holder. just push in slowly until it stops. Reverse the process for removal. A little tricky with a full water bowl but not too bad. Good system.

You just pull it out. Make sure there is no water in it, and pull. Give it nice, even pressure and it will come out.

I took that piece out of my bowls, I don't use them , but I assume you can contact the company and see if they can replace it for you.

you just squeeze the handle and when you have enough in your holder let go of handle. i really like mine. i have used it for pancakes, to butter cupcakes, ( which are thicker). enjoy your..

I agree with Miedego. The blade is not designed to separate from the unit to which it is attached. If you're trying to remove the blade unit from the bowl, simply turn it slightly. It should release.I love my mini chopper. Since I've had it, I seldom use my food processor!

I just took apart mine. There's two screws on the sides for the bottom section, two on top in the handle and one on the bottom on the bottom section. Takes those out then just force it apart. It's hard to force apart, but that's the only way.Sorry for the year late reply

I think there is a rubber piece on the top. Pull that back and it might be in there. Haven't used mine in a while.

I just made my first batch of pasta tonight with a used machine. It was pre-assembled so I didn't see how it all went together. When I took it apart, I couldn't get the rotary housing out. But I had not removed the mixing bowl. Once I removed the bowl the housing slid out to the side easily. It does not pull out to the front! So remember you have to remove everything else first - including the bowl before you can remove the housing. Look at the parts diagram to know what everything means! LOL

Unscrew the dish/splatter bowl from the burner. When you flip over the burner (legs up), you will see where the legs snap into place. You can access the retainers easily. Just press the retainer with your thumb while you pull to release the leg out of the assembly. Screw the bowl back onto the burner for storage.

It just pulls out. At least mine did. Try running hot water over the plastic for a minute or 2 to get it to expand a bit then turn the unit upside down, lightly tap the bottom a couple times, hold the glass in one hand & pull up on the plastic (while twisting) with the other hand. Dont force it tho!!!!! Its glass & can break. But this worked for both of mine.

So you have to take the tank off the bowl. That to me is apart. The bowl stays place but to secure all the parts the tank has to come off. A few screws and the larger nut on the bottom. Nothing challenging. Just a little wet but nothing a towel or two can't solve.

It's easy..just make sure the two points go towards the top of the holder..it should go back in there.. I couldn't figure it out either.. I just took the time to figure it out..

use both hands holding the sides of the bowl, close the lid from the bottom, while it close to the top, slightly use both of your index fingers to squeeze the bowl, and use your thumb to push the lid down. Now it closed perfectly.:) make sense?

I use a butter knife and wedge it under the edge of the lid and then try sliding it across so that I can pry it off. Sometimes it's easier to pry open when it's not overfilled. Good luck! Hope this helps.

I had the *exact* same issue. I learned by tapping the unit on the side until the handle jiggles up and down makes it much easier to then simply lift the handle off the top. **UPDATE Fe b 20th** Nevermind, it has now become almost impossible to remove the handle. I now loathe trying to remove the top since it could take anywhere from 3 minutes - 10 minutes... along with a bruised palm of my hand.

I had the same problem. What I do now..fill the blue bowl (I know, obvious) then place it somewhere firm, like on the counter. Put the bottom and tighten it just till it makes contact, do not over tighten, I use one finger to screw it on. Then press down around the edges of the bottom piece firmly so it slides on and then tighten the rest of the way. But again, do not over tighten, turn just till it makes contact. Hold it over the sink to be sure it does not leak. It will come off almost as easily.Had mine for almost 2 years now and no problems.

Problem I have with mine is the bowl falls through the holder. Otherwise it could work for you.

Try twisting the lid on and off. Sometimes that can allow the latch on the bowl to release.
