HOBART A-200 MIXER- FIRST GEAR NOT WORKING
Hi, your mixer was manufactured in 1947. Hobart does not make public their service manuals. It sounds like the diving key is not engaging first gear with the spinning shaft. This is the ticking sound you hear/feel. This could be because of a broken spring in the mechanism that moves this key in and out, or the key itself has become so worn that it will no longer engage the first gear. The unit needs to be opened up to remove all old grease and oil, including the planetary. The condition of the grease in your description of the planetary, is a good indicator of the condition of the grease in the trans. Your unit probably needs an overhaul due to it's advanced age and grease state. Unplug the unit. You can gently remove the two circular metal dust covers underneath the top cover. With a good flashlight you can view the overall quality of the grease and the level of it. In an ideal world the grease should fill the entire cavity and no oil should be visible. Replacement grease should be Shell Darina EP-2 or Chevron ALC EP-2. You'll need 4-14 OZ. tubes of either type to do the job. The Spec. # for your unit is 3943 Look for drawing # PL-985 Once the cover is off the trans., it's relatively easy to get to the diving key once you remove first gear (the large round gear on top). Remove what you need in sequence, and replace in sequence. If you have a digital camera, take lots of dissasembly pics. When you are done, test in all gears by turning the motor cooling fins with your fingers in the normal direction of the motor rotation. Do not plug the unit back in until you've tested all speeds manually. Good luck! ricardok45

HL 600 timer board I think
Sorry so late but the reason you need the kit is because the potentiometer (the knob that selects the time) is no longer part of the timer board.You need the pot,and board.I'm a hobart tech,if any other questions let me know.

Hobart A-200 First Gear is Having Trouble
If the mixers are older the dive key shaft,spring or key are broken,if they are newer the key is sheared.Also check the nuts near the beater shaft and make sure there not too tight.

HOW OLD IS MY MIXER
The Hobart A-200 is an 80's product. These first came on the market around 1985. There is no way to date the one you have without examining it.
The best estimate is 25-30 years old.

A Hobart A200 stand mixer that I cannot get the dough hook off of?
Try and get some CRC into the top where the hook joins the shaft. You need to be rocking it back & forth to try and get movement. Gradually the movement will increase if your strong men are strong enough and have stamina as well. Once you get it off clean up the shaft with a wire brush. Clean out the hole in the dough hook with the proper size drill, you don't want to make the hole bigger, just cleaner. It will be a build up of flour in there, it packs hard and shrinks the hole, almost unbelievable but true.
