Hello Linda,
Well, despite the fact that durability is part of the marketing hype
on these types of blenders, they do fail with hard use. I've had two
different Vitamixes experience broken drive shafts under relatively
light duty. I suspect that the instructions are written that way to
prompt you to put the machine under less stress in order to limit the
mechanical failure possibilities during the warranty period. If
there is a lifetime warranty I suspect they are trying to forestall
the failure event so the statistics look better.
