It is most likely the way the bowl and lid are set.

Facing the machine:
the bowl locks in, with the handle to your right directly above the switches. The lid has a double tab...see underside of the top of the lid. Place the lid on tightly with both tabs locked into bowls handle. It really clicks in.

SOURCE: magimix Cusine System

Here is the generic English Magimix manual - it covers a lot of different model numbers. The good news about this manual is that it is picture-intensive instead of word-intensive. The key is that every piece of the bowl must be in the correct position, or the food processor won't tunr on. Hope it helps:

Cleaning magimix handle

I have a Magimix Cuisine 5200XL and have watched dirt and other not so nice stuff build up inside the handle. I long hesitated trying to remove the handle, afraid I would break it, but today using a regular knife (the kind you eat with) I carefully pried the handle loose. With some insertion of the knife at the top, bottom and sides in the crack between the white (or other color for you perhaps) pat of the handle and the transparent part of the handle I was able to get it off. I then cleaned it, and afterwards it snapped nice back in to place again.

How do I change the Nylon Driveshaft on my Magimix 4200?

Yes you can, you can "cut" it off with a soldering iron by melting a slot down one side. When banging a new one on you need to remove the base and support the bottom of the shaft with something solid underneath it. The whole motor assembly will be sitting on this as you bang the new sleeve on with a soft mallet. If you don't there is a danger you will wreck the motor and you cannot afford to replace that bit.

The extension post in my magimix 4200 is stuck on the motor shaft seems like It's welded on can anyone help

How to Change a Magimix Food processor plastic spindle.
This is meant as a guide only BBS ltd takes no responsibility for any damage done. We always advise that this should be done by a Magimix approved service agent.

The spindle is the part that sticks out of the motor this drives the blades, knifes, discs and cones for the food processor, this part may become worn after time or use.
Cover the main body with a cloth so as not to damage the look of the food processing machine.
Place two blocks of wood about 10cms either side of spindle cover. Then place two flat screwdrivers Horizontal either side of Magimix food processor spindle
Push down on handle of screwdrivers apply even pressure (keeping eyes well away from the spindle cover, they can fly off fast sometimes.)
The spindle will rise.
This will leave the metal centre shaft, Replace with a spindle cover bought from
www.magimix-spares.co.uk. Make sure you choose correct model, usually named on front of machine, or phone 01252 727755 for help.
When replacing, make sure that the New Food processor spindle is lined up and slide the spindle onto the centre shaft. Make sure this goes all the way down by gently tapping with a hammer.
All blades and attachments should be checked before placing back onto spindle cover, if the inside is damaged, this could damage the spindle cover again, any blade, dough blade , disc support that is marked should be replaced.

BBS Limited is the approved and dedicated supplier of Magimix parts & accessories for all Magimix products.

Clean magimix 4200 handle

I have a Magimix Cuisine 5200XL (so not quite your model...) and have watched dirt and other not so nice stuff build up inside the handle.
