KitchenAid Blender Rubber Coupler, 9704230 with Removal Tool - Best Price
Brand new KitchenAid rubber blender coupler and removal tool.
Fits models: KSB3 and KSB5
Below are the instructions for repairing the coupler/clutch/coupling on the KitchenAid blenders:
The blender's rubber coupling is designed to break if the blender is under strain. This will often happen if the food being chopped is too hard or being chopped at too higher speed. The part failing prevents the motor from more severe damage.The coupler/clutch has six rubber teeth which grip the underside of the blade in the blending jug. The clutch is secured to the blender spindle (which is made of steel) with a reverse aluminum thread. i.e. you turn clockwise to undo it which is the opposite to normal.There are two ways to remove the old clutch.
Reviews of Kitchenaid Blender Rubber Coupler 9704230 With Removal Tool
Fast and easy repair
Rating by : J., 
I read several of the reviews of the coupler. After close observation of my own blender, I realized I would not be able to remove the torn coupler without a special tool, which I didn't know was available. Then I came upon this set of tool and coupler, which I immediately ordered, with my fingers crossed hoping it would work out. After a quick delivery (in my mailbox in 5 days, including a weekend), I opened the package. The directions that come with the coupler do not explain how to use special tool. However, it was pretty easy to figure out: Use the tool to hold the knob in place on which the coupler is attached (without the tool, the knob will turn in the same direction as the loosening direction). Use a plier to turn the coupler clockwise, while using the tool to hold the knob still, thus preventing the knob from turning as you loosen it. Note, the coupler must be loosened by turning it righty-loosey, opposite of the usual righty-tighty. For me, this could not be done without the pliers. But with the pliers, it came loose in 10 seconds. Once loosened, I unscrewed the old coupler and screwed on the new coupler. On a scale of 1-5 in difficulty, I would give this a 1.5.
Removal tool was absolutely necessary.

When my husband and I ordered the replacement rubber coupler for our Kitchenaid blender, I wanted to order the removal tool as well. He took the guy's advice in the other review and did not order it. After working on my blender for nearly half an hour attempting to remove the coupler according to the directions, he had a blister on his finger, had chisled little bits of metal off my blender base, was in a terrible mood, and he still couldn't remove it. I tried too, following the instructions closely, to no avail. We ordered the removal tool combo the next day and when it arrived, had the coupler off and replaced in less than a minute. The blender works perfectly once again. I wish I had ordered the removal tool in the first place.
get it cheaper from the supplier

I know Amazon buys from suppliers and they usually sell items for less but in this case I went directly to the suppliers website and got 2 of the couplers
and the tool for the same price. Actually I think the shipping was cheaper and I will get it faster that Amazon shipping.
