My KitchenAid Artisan was having some serious troubles for the past few weeks. Overheating to the point where I had to put an ice pack on it to finish a batch of marshmallows because it was getting disconcertingly hot. I opened it up and found that the accessory drive gear attachment hub (quite the mouthful!) part #9705130 required a lot of force to turn. All the other gears seem in perfectly good condition. I decided to take out the gear and consider replacement after a good inspection, but I can't get it out. As far as I can tell based on the schematics and looking closely at it, there is no retaining clip or pin or anything holding it in place. But after prying with a screwdriver, and then using a light hammer and a punch when that failed, I have only managed to move it about 3/16 inch. Does anyone know how to take out this gear? I am about to take a clamp and an engineers hammer and knock it out of there, but wanted to make sure I wasn't going to damage anything first.
The fix for that is a new gear and replacement housing (the whole painted top part) The bush is unfortunately not available as a spare part.

There should be screws to tighten. Or maybe the pin holding the gearhead on is missing, tho that is unlikely.

I would give the "accept" to bestdarngood , if I were you..He has given the bets and complete solution there...That should work, if it doesnt. the the only recourse is a service center..

When you are able to remove the paddle, feel the opposite side of the spindle. It should be smooth. The pin should not stick out the back at all. Carefully, tap it in until it is even with the spindle. That will fix you up, unless the pin itself is also damaged. If so, get a small file and remove any burrs from where the paddle mounts.

go to any local hardware store Ace tell them you need retaing ring pliers to remove you c clip if you cant find try your automotive stores like autozone, advanced autoparts they should have retaing clip remover.you should also get some gear oil while your there for the gears sounds like you dont have any oil int the gears.heres an image to help you out.

It appears that retaining ring (7) has snapped. It is the retaining ring which attaches to the drive shaft. Here is the parts diagram:

From it you can see how to remove the case cover and access the gear train. You may have to replace the shaft if its groove is worn allowing the retaining ring to slip off.

Turns out you can just tap this part out with a hammer. If it's not stuck like mine. I tapped mine out, and it came out with a piece of the sleeve that it should comfortably fit inside still attached to the gear. I guess it was VERY siezed up. Unfortunately, this KA mixer might be sold for parts. Not sure I want to bother fixing it.
