KitchenAid Food Mixers - Answered Questions & Fixed Issues

It uses a food approved oil.

The trim ring news to be ta]ed in place with a plastic-face mallet. This type of mallet does not (if used properly) Mar the surface it striks. Hold the trim ring in place while tapping it in place. It often takes patience to get it right. The ring is properly in place when there is no place where you can insert a fingernail between it and the mixer body all around the ring.

The bevel gear sits above the worm-follower gear. I think you mean the drive attachment gear.I think I have the same, or similar problem. I ground a piece of meat that stopped it from working. The drive-attachment-gear turns if I push it in, but then it pops out. I am still trying to figure out what part is causing the issue - the drive attachment gear, or maybe even the worm follower gear.

From what I know about these and industrial Hobart mixers is that where drive gears are on a shaft they are held by a shear pin that goes right through the gear and the shaft. They are made to shear if the grinder or planetary head is strained. It shears the pin instead of damaging the motor or shredding gears. When they do shear, there is often enough friction to turn the attachment, but not enough force under load. I see two shear pins in this diagram 19/8 and part 14/8. The diagram also show the orientation of bevel gears. https://www.google.com/search?q=olympus+s924+manual A Moulinex Coffee Mill might be a better solution for grinding wheat. ..

Don't forget if it is new it is under manufacturer warranty. Make the beater isn't too low and fouling, because the bowl is set too high? Try to lock with no beater.

Possibly one screw for up and one for down, working on a see-saw mechanism.

It's perfectly save to use a power converter from 220v to 110V. The 50Hz Frequenz will let the Motor spin 20% slower. So it'll last forever. I use a KSM90 from the US in Germany for more than 25 years. It runs great and the gears inside it look like new.

Food grade grease is what Kitchen Aid put into the gearbox originally. They do supply it as a spare part if you cannot find it as a non Kitchen Aid part.

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to category. The speed lever is electronic. Videos and the part in the link. https://www.google.com/search?q=Kitchenaid+Professional+6+mixer+speed+lever+stuck ..

I had this same problem as well.  The beater was stuck like glue to the rotating arm, and it would not budge with any amount of pressure.  I tried the cooking spray and it did nothing.  But today I put a rag in hot/boiling water and then carefully wrapped it around the top of the beater.  I let it sit for 10 minutes. Then I put the rag in hot water again and repeated the process for about another 5 minutes.  When this was done, I covered the beater in a towel (to protect it) and forcefully tapped (ok... I pounded) it with the flat side of my meat tenderizer (it was all I had...you could use a mallet or hammer).  It took a little bit of work because I had to hammer it from the bottom, then the side, then the top to get the little spoke guided through the shaft.  But it did finally come off.  After cleaning with hot water, I put the beater on again and noticed that it was still a little hard to get on/off.  So, I put a little bit of veg. oil on it, and it seems to be better.  Going forward, I will be sure to clean the top of the beater & arm after each use and then coat it with a little oil to keep from sticking.  Best of luck!

Question edited to merge two posts into one. Question moved from Bicycles to a Mixer category. Cook's Essentials are just a selling outlet. If they are made by KitchenAid, the parts are here. https://www.google.com/search?q=sm248+mixer+parts+diagram&rlz=1C1QJDB_enCA643CA644&sxsrf=APq-WBs51HXoZlPLYBLIw_gKnjgfGad8KA:1648169680903&tbm=isch&source=iu&ictx=1&vet=1&fir=DhOj2KWUlvCfrM%252CFfRS9X8xH2smWM%252C_%253B4p2nJc0NLMKldM%252CctSN28jen8ypHM%252C_%253BF0H6qfXGDGQVSM%252CC7MQoH756G-MhM%252C_%253Bs3F9rQVPzUcH1M%252CctSN28jen8ypHM%252C_%253Bnez7wt-_ahPSgM%252CctSN28jen8ypHM%252C_%253BOS34jyqe-yoRFM%252CCBIKR3MgQLowzM%252C_%253BkVsIk829pBXxYM%252CC7MQoH756G-MhM%252C_%253B2hp_Cv5EwD6aaM%252CeW2uCVoysM48mM%252C_%253BwotkLvrkHQ9ATM%252C_j-OBlIxq8-IxM%252C_%253BzHKS5wGek-rN4M%252CgM2Kzmx_lL3zwM%252C_&usg=AI4_-kRZUhyRx50AK5j1Ea0PeLLW2V0MLQ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiojPDChuD2AhVUHs0KHXgZB4gQ9QF6BAgFEAE#imgrc=DhOj2KWUlvCfrM ..

Panko are made with a special non-fermented bread that has no crust. You can however make good breadcrumbs with old hard bread and if you want it to be like Panko, pulse it and leave the crumbs coarse. I am a trade chef and use Panko a lot. Panko (???) is a type of flaky bread crumbs used in Japanese cuisine as a crunchy coating for fried foods, such as tonkatsu. Panko is made from bread baked by electrical current, which yields a bread without a crust, and then grinding the bread to create fine slivers of crumb.[1] It has a crisper, airier texture than most types of breading found in Western cuisine and maintains its texture baked or deep fried, resulting in a lighter coating.[2] Outside Japan, its use is becoming more popular in both Asian and non-Asian dishes. It is often used on seafood and is often available in Asian markets, speciality stores, and, increasingly, in many large supermarkets. Panko is produced worldwide, particularly in Asian countries, including Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, China, and Vietnam.

Before you swap it out, get a can of electrical contact cleaner and spray the track and contacts.

You probably just need a new Shear Pin. This is just a small steel pin like a nail that goes through the gear and the drive shaft. If the strain on the final drive exceeds specs, the pin shears through and thereby saves damage to the gears and motor. Google make model parts diagram https://www.ereplacementparts.com/kitchenaid-4ksm150psbw0-artisan-tilt-head-stand-mixer-parts-c-114958_114959_115458.html This is one of the Shear Pins. They just call it 'pin, retaining'. https://www.ereplacementparts.com/shear-pin-retaining-pin-p-621981.html ..

See following video. Fast forward to 7:30 and it shows the on/off contact. Around a minute earlier it shows the the speed lever, spring, and link.

It may need new carbon brushes in the motor, but whether you can get them is another matter. Phone their service department. You may also have lubrication issues that is slowing it down.SALTON CANADACustomer Service Department 81A Brunswick Dollard-des-Ormeaux Quebec, Canada H9B 2J5Website: www.salton.comManual, just because I found ithttps://www.salton.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/KM-386-IB-ENweb.pdfhttps://www.google.com/search?q=salton+km386+replacement+carbon+brushes..
