SOURCE: I have a Kenwood Model

Try rubbing the mixer with isopropyl alcohol, this can solve and remove many plastic materials.

Walgreens Apothecary Isopropyl Alcohol 91% 16oz

If that does not work , contact Kenwood here, this is not a common problem.

SOURCE: K-beater is stuck on our Kenwood Chef and we can't remove it

I couldn't remove the K-Beater as when I tried to turn it the whole mechanism turned with it. I couldn't even remove the splashguard! I was going to take it to the Kenwood factory (a few miles from home) but then I thought I'd give it one more go and this is what I did...

1. Next to where the K-Beater attaches in the middle of the circular plate is a lug with a pointed-shape bolt on the end. Remove this with a spanner and the beater plus gear cog can be removed.
   
2. Place some mole grips or wide pliers on a worktop and sit the cogged gear in to it and grip so that it won't turn.
3. Now you should be able to remove the K-Beater!

Here's how to fix the stuck implement problem:

The implements each have adjustable heights. to adjust the height you need to loosen the bolt at the top with a 14mm spanner. If the bolt was loose when it was being used then it can get too short and not leave enough clearance between the bolt and the machine in order to push up and turn to release the implement. If this happens take the open ended spanner, grasp the implement and rotate the spanner clockwise (when looking up at the machine from below. Once the nut is loose rotate the implement until there is enough clearance to remove it normally.
