I have a Bamix and cannot remove the blade as the spindle keeps turning back on itself. This makes the appliance unusable for other uses.

From the BAMIX.com website
Mayonnaise 1 egg (or 1 egg yolk) 1 teaspoon of lemon juice 1 teaspoon of herb vinegar 1 pinch salt 1 pinch pepper 1 ½ - 2 cups of oil 1 teaspoon of french mustard Put all the ingredients except the oil in a jug (not too large) and blend well with the WHISK. Then add the oil in a thin, steady stream (not drop by drop), processing all the time, until the mayonnaise has reached the required consistency. To achieve perfect results, all ingredients should be at the same temperature.

SOURCE: Bamix stick blender Handle vibrates but shaft does not turn

Old food residue and juices will have got into the shaft bearings, and have dried out enough in 9 years to stop it turning. Starting with the simplest solution, try immersing the shaft in hot, or even boiling, water nearly up to the top of the metal shaft. CAUTION - DON'T BURN YOURSELF! Let it stand in the water for a few hours, and then try turning the shaft by hand (with the machine unplugged, of course). This could be repeated a number of times. You may also be able to unscrew the blade guard after this treatment, bear in mind it has a left hand thread, so if you are looking at it from the bottom, turn it clockwise to loosen. Be careful not to lose any seals or springs when it comes off.

If this doesn't work, support the Bamix upside down, and pour a small amount of WD-40 into the blade guard, so that it pools around the end of the shaft. Leave to stand, and the oil should slowly seep into the bearings, dissolving the food residues. Again, try this a few times.

If neither of these work, the Bamix will need to be dismantled to clean the shaft and bearings. This is really beyond the scope of this forum and requires some experience of this type of work.

The B blade is the one to use - the B blade is the one with the "holes" in it.

That wonderful little stick is all you need, I sure love mine! Make sure your Mixing cup is larger than the one supplied and remember to pump up and down vigorously as you blend. Keep swirling the bottom to make sure everything got picked up and blended. You can also make powdered salt,(great for french fries) powdered sugar, Dried garlic can be made into your own freshest garlic powder (great for spaghetti and pizza). peanut butter, apple butter and Whipped cream. I also use mine to make a crazy Jello only treat that tastes like sherbet, ice cream and Jello just by blending Jello and Ice cubes. Then I chill right away after pouring it into small 3 inch glasses.
