this might help... the whisk has a slightly larger whole then the other attachments. it is also inset. there is a washer that holds the spring on. if that is slightly off or bent it won't sit in the Whisks inset right. look a little closer to that and the spring. if there happened to be dried on food that could be the slight difference that can prevent it from staying one. Hope this helps!!!
Did you find a way of getting the peg aligned that worked ok, I've got exactly the same issue with my grundig? I can't work out how it's got 'turned' out of sync? :( boohoo
I took a small crowbar, and put the curved end up inside the whisk, and hammered the other end lightly. After about 20 taps, the peg was lined up with the sideways opening so I could twist it off. When I got it off, it looked like there was either flour inside the part where the whisk attaches, or some light corrosion was going on. Either way, I'm going to put a little grease in there so it doesn't happen again.
We had this same issue with our KitchenAid Mixer. Whether it is the whisk attachment or the paddle, the problem is that stuff (most likely sugar based) got into the attachment connection area and dried. It seems like a little sugar couldn't possibly glue the attachments to the stand mixer, but it does.
The solution is to turn the mixer on it's side and pour a kettle or two of boiling water on the section that joins the mixer to the attachments. Pour slowly to allow boiling water to penetrate grooves. Wiggle a little, pour more water, repeat... that should allow you to get it off.
In the future make sure to soak the attachments in boiling water every once and a while to allow all the gook to loose. And let it fully dry before reattaching to mixer.
