How do i change the gear on the top of the Vitamix 5200
Remove beaker, remove big black rubber part from top of motor housing. At the back just below the gear you will see a small dob of white silicone, dig it out. That will reveal a gap to allow you to put an allen key in there. Inspect the top flange of the "gear" carefully, there is a nearly invisible arrow or marking in one place. Line that up with the gap at the back, that is where the allen screw is.Undo it and lift the gear off. Read the instructions that come with the new gear.
When turning my Vitamix product on high it runs
It sounds like the motor is overheating, how long will it run with no beaker on it? If still 45 seconds I'd say new motor time. If it runs for 5 or 10 minutes then I would say replace the blade and bearing assembly in the beaker.
Repack bearings
On the Vitamix blender models we have here in NZ it is not possible to repack the bearings, you just purchase a new blade assembly complete with bearings and the driving clutch.
When trying to blend things like frozen fruit or
Frozen elements are generally not recommended for blenders of any brand. They may cause the blade assembly to stop moving completely, or to "bog down," and this may eventually damage the motor. It is recommended that frozen fruits and/or yogurt be thawed when possible before placing into a blender. If this is not a possibility for you, I would use a "pulse" or "chop ice" function to rapidly spin the blades for just a moment. This will chop the contents in smaller, more manageable parts. This should be done before adding other liquid ingredients.

Olabisi. It is better to create your own question rather than tagging a 13 year old question in the area where you ask the OP for further information before committing to an answer.
Stir function runs the blades at a much slower speed to incorporate ingredients slowly.

STIR. To stir ingredients in a blender, start with a low, slow speed and gradually increase it to a medium speed. Blend until ingredients are completely combined.

My B and D BL5000 blender doesn't stop when I press the STOP button. The motor goes when the cord is plugged in. Is this repairable? How? I have looked at the screws to get at it
the lock/unlock button on the Cuisinart Smart Stick CSB-75 blender may not stay locked when pressed in. The solution is to hold the blender in the palm of your dominant hand, press the low or high button and hold, then push and release the lock button on top with a finger on your other hand. The blender motor should start as soon as you push the lock button down and stay running until you release the high or low button.
However, fix.com offers OEM Black and Decker blender parts and accessories, including rubber gaskets, jar bases, measuring cup lid inserts, and blade assemblies. You may want to check if the parts you need are available and replaceable.
If you are unable to repair the blender yourself, you can contact Black and Decker customer service for assistance. They may be able to provide you with additional information on how to repair your blender or direct you to a local repair shop.

What is the best blender for making smoothies with frozen fruit?
This looks Spammy, but the answer is Vitamix.Yogurt or liquid first and fruit on top and let rip!A blender is the only machine in your kitchen that can produce a beverage from chunks of ice and fruit in less than 60 seconds. And no other blender we've tested since 2012 can reliably make silky soups, spoon-thick smoothies, and stable emulsifications like the
Vitamix 5200. Yes, this model is pricey, but we think its powerful motor, nuanced controls, and long-lasting reliability make it worth the investment...
