Will a Kitchenaid Pro 500 work in a foreign country with trans.?

Will a Kitchenaid Pro 500 (KSM500) work in a foreign country with an appropriately sized 240V/110V transformer? The power frequency of the AC system will be 50Hz instead of 60Hz. Thanks.

Hi, This is not normally a difficult question. Normally the answer would be - Yes no problem. I have taken every kind of appliance overseas. But this particular model has an electronic speed control and finding out the exact details of the electronic clocking is a problem. My best guess is that it will work just fine but at a slightly slower speed like any other 60Hz appliance. Oh and by the way you're gonna need a pretty big transformer this thing pulls 325 watts so you should go to at least a 400 watt transformer for doughs and heavy batter. The thing you could do to find other folks experience is to go to the kitchenaid forum or military wifes forum online and ask if anybody has taken one of these overseas. Good Luck!

My ksm500 would not start

Hiya,

I am sorry to hear you are having problems with your machine.

It could be that your motor brushes have worn down too much or are not in the correct way. I have added a help link below which will show you how to remove and replace your motor brushes:

I have recovered my kitchenaid pro 500 mixer that was stolen, but the serial numbers have been removed. is there any other place to look

The sticker is the only number that they have here in NZ. I don't know how they operate in your country but here if it is registered we can just ask the distributor for the serial number of the products that we have registered under our name. Our database is searchable by customer name or serial number.

Hi JBKRIEGER, Happy New Year! Yes you can download both your Owners Instruction Manual and Parts List Manual from the KA website at: (http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/page/home).
Click on Customer Care>Locate Manuals& Guides> and enter the 6 character model number and then select the appropriate files under Owners Manual for your Instruction and Recipe manual and the file under Parts List for your parts list manual.
The Parts List manual provides an exploded view for the disassembly and reassembly of your mixer, along with all the part names and numbers. (Definitely check to see it this matches your mixer). You may not need it now, but if your mixer is out of warranty and you want to attempt to troubleshoot and fix your mixer yourself if something goes wrong with your mixer, you’ll definitely need that parts list manual.
Good luck with your KA mixer, Howard, Burke, VA.

I've the 325 watts its 110V kitchen aid and I

You will need a 'step-down' transformer with a rating of at least 500 watts (~500 VA), a primary designed for 220 Volts and a secondary rated at 110-115 Volts. This type will have four terminals or leads and isolates the input from the output.
There is a non-isolating type called an 'autotransformer' which has one winding with a tap (total of three terminals) roughly in the middle. I use this type for certain devices but it is not as safe as the first-described type.
If you are living in a foreign country that uses the ~220 Volt standard, you can sometimes get one on 'semipermanent' loan from the local utility.
