Resolvió el problema, las aspas no hay originales, sería lindo tener en original

バイタミックスTNC5200 ほぼ毎日10年以上使っていて、コンテナを買い替えたので ドライブソケットも交換しました。 比べるとやはり摩耗しています。 交換して安定感が増した気がします。 付属の金具でネジを緩めて上に引いて外し、 （ネジを外してしまわないように注意です。本体の中に入り込んで一苦労でした） 新しいドライブソケットのネジを緩めてはめ込み、ネジを締めます。 ネジ穴を塞ぐゴムも付属していました。

I ordered this 10 years ago, having had a Vitamix blender for 5 years at the time. I like to be prepared! Anyway, after continued daily use, I finally needed it today. There was an awful smoky burning smell coming from the existing drive socket but with the replacement in place it's all good to go again. It took about 10 minutes to do the job. Note that you need a blob of silicone sealant to finish the job.

If you have a Vita-Mix Blender (mine is a Commercial Grade "VM0115A" T&G (touch and go) 2 Blending Station Part Number 34013) and need a replacement Drive Socket then this is your part! This socket works on all "Commercial" Grade Blenders, except the Food Processor "Vitamix XL". If you have a "Home" Grade (non-Commercial) model then you'll have to call Vitamix at 1-800-848-2649 to see if this is the right part for your Blender. I can find it around $10 at several places on the internet but the shipping charges were so high it's actually cheaper to order it here at Amazon. Especially if you get the Free Shipping option for an order over $25, or have Prime. I bought 2 so I have a spare and got Free Shipping. The Allen wrench comes with the part so there's no other tools needed. Takes 5 minutes to switch out the part. Instructions come with the part too. A word of advice to those that have never replaced these Drive Sockets before: get a second part because it is very easy to over tighten the set screw when initially installing the new part to the shaft. Also note that the alignment (angle) of the screw is slightly tipped upwards so if you are having a hard time getting the Allen wrench to line up to the Allen set screw just make sure this plastic Drive Sockets raised alignment arrow is first lined up to the opening in the blender housing (run your finger over the sockets outer edge if you're having a hard time seeing the arrow). Then very lightly turn the Allen wrench clockwise until it stops. DO NOT CONTINUE TIGHTENING THE SCREW because you can very easily strip out the threads of the plastic socket housing. Once it's stripped out the socket won't stay on the shaft. That's why I buy 2. I don't like the design that allows the part to strip out so easily but I guess that's why so many people need this part. Once it's tight, back off the screw 1/4 counter-clockwise turn and try to hand pull the Drive Socket up off the shaft. If the Socket stays in place then it's tightened correctly. Now turn it on to make sure it doesn't vibrate wildly. If it does vibrate you'll need to loosen up the screw and rotate the socket 90 degrees and retighten it again (don't forget the 1/4 counter-clockwise adjustment). Repeat as necessary. That's it- you're all ready to go. Margarita anyone? Update Nov.9,2014: If your looking for the part number of this socket Vitamix calls it part number 000891 (some places just refer it as "891") which gets you Qty 1. P/N 0155546 will get you Qty 2 (which I highly recommend since these will last about a year before they go bad), and P/N 015547 which will get you 5 pieces.
