Motor run s a little rough and weak in first gear.

Thats called a sacraficial gear because its brass which is a soft metal.This gear takes most of the strain but i think either a spacer is missing or the gears arent meshing correctly.The transmission assembly the shaft next to it make sure all the spacers/washers are there.Goto hobartcorp.com you will find an exploded parts breakdown.

Can you be more specific?Does 1st gear run? are you overloading it?

Check that the gear on the shaft that the clutch gear engages with does nort have a sheared key.

I'd say you're most likely overloading the mixer. This mixer, and others similar in size, are frequently overloaded by people making pizza dough. If you are making dough, keep in mind the A-200's capacity is 9 lb. of 40% A.R. pizza dough, mixed for 5 minutes maximum. If you need to mix longer, the batch must be cut down even smaller, but I don't even know if you're mixing dough.
Try running the mixer unloaded (i.e. nothing in the bowl) for ten minutes or more and see if it gets hot. If it still gets hot, the motor's start circuit (varies depending upon age of the A-200; Hobart used numerous motors in the A-200 over the years, incorporating different starting circuits) most likely has problems. If it doesn't get hot when operating unloaded, then you're probably overheating the mixer by overloading it.

Knowing the model number of your mixer will be helpful in trying to locate an assembly diagram, and part info to better assist you. Please provide the model number.
General Suggestions
As you may be aware your mixer has a safety feature that disables functionality if the unit gets to hot due to overloading. If this may be a factor and you haven't already, unplug the mixer and let it rest for at least an hour and then try it again.
You mentioned that the motor is working but the attachments don't turn. Some mixers are equipped with an mechanism that will only allow drive from the motor to engage if the attachments are firmly locked in place. The problem may be here.
If the unit was overloaded, it is possible that the plastic gears were damaged. Unless I can locate an assembly diagram of your specific model I will be unable to give you more detailed information.
If you feel comfortable with a trial and error approach you could carefully disassemble the mixer for closer examination. Most mixers housings are held together by 4 or so screws. Be careful when separating the housing halves as some parts may disconnect, or detach. If you open it slowly and pay close attention you should be able to see how things are assembled, and understand how they are going to come apart. Make notes for reassembly.
If you find that the gears are damaged, you will most likely have to contact the manufacturer to locate replacement parts.
