Top 20 Kenwood KM300 Chef Stand Mixer Questions & Answers

The planetary gear housing is filled with grease. Seeing oil come out would indicate that grease has started to or has completely broken down. Take the planetary apart (One nut and a clip), clean out the old grease and liberally repack with a food grade grease something like PTFE Super Lube .

1) remove the front power outlet of the mixer head. 2) look for a notch in either the top edge or the bottom edge of the casting. (hole)3) Guide Pin on 9xx accessories is at the top of the connecting shaft. 4) if notch and pin point in the same direction, accessory will usually fit (9xx acc's point up and 7xx acc's point down)

Having done it the hard way (!) it is dead easy. All you need is a small screwdriver or similar, approx 2mm by 1mm in cross section. Looking from outside the mixer, where the power lead enters the main body, between the rectangular lead casing and the socket it enters, there is a small rectangular cutout (top right). Push your screwdriver in around 15mm, and then withdraw the lead housing with it - the screwdriver pushes the latch aside, hence you need to remove both as one! With luck, and a wiggle or two, that should be it.

HI.The thread to where tghe nut is attached might been loose.You can actually have it repaired by putting adhesive.Before you tight the screw put adhesive to the thread and tight the nut slowly.In this way the nut will be permanently engaged/fix and it will not easily loosen when the paddle moves.The other way is to replace the thread and nut as well.Thankyou for choosing FIXYA.

I am having this problem - I know it's a twist and twist off thing of course as I've used it many times. But now twisting it off is not working and I need to wash it!!! Can't believe this of all things has gone wrong, never mind anything electronic!

hi the lock nut on the shaft may have been loose allowing the shaft to screw into the dough hook you hve to unscrew the hook out of the shaft then unwind the nut down so you can release the shaft. other problems can occur if the retaining clip has unseated and jammed itself into the planet hub. this is more difficult and a kenwood agent would be consulted see www.kenwood.co.uk for nearest agent.

WHEN A KENWOOD CHEF STOPS RUNNING THE FIRST THING TO TRY (PROVIDING IT HAS NOT SMOKED FIRST) IS TO TURN THE TWO SCREWS CLOCKWISE THAT FIT ON CORNER OF MOTOR. SMALL SCREWDRIVER THROUGH PLASTIC COVER WILL DO IT AS THESE ARE A FINE TUNER AND CAN SOME TIMES VIBRATE LOOSE

I live in the US and have an old Kenwood KM230 Mixer that I absolutely love. Unfortunately I can not locate a replacement for the spashguard that has now cracked. The old splashguard item # 27215/31227 is the replacement spashguard....any solutions

for both attachments to fall out the planet hub must be worn out. check that there is a spring clip in the groove of the beaters. if you have had it repaired recently it may be running backwards which woluld eject the attachments.

Try Ebay for parts, and the links below, they sell parts and service machines.
