Do you sell replacement beaters for stand mixers

Yes. Go to the manufacturers site who makes your mixer. You should be able to find them there. Or if you still have the manufacturers booklet, they normally have a page for replacement parts in that booklet.

How do I determine if the motor is burned out on my HB standup mixer model 84580?

call an electrician
it could be a thermal protection switch , start/run capacitor or dead motor
if it is a motor it is cheaper to get a new one and if you want it use it outside it's capacity then get a bigger replacement motor
for example if the current motor is 1 hp or 750 watts get a 2 hp or 1500 watts

MY kitchen Aide mixer was running alittle rough /loud and now has stop completely. It is approx 24 years old and has never had any problems. It is hard to find a local repair [place. any suggestions

Two things you can do for a 24-year old machine:

1. Replace both motor brushes (Black large plastic Caps on each side
of the Moto Housing). Without these, the motor wouldn't even run.
2. Replace the Worm Gear (the cause of the Rough Loud noises)

Download a copy of the Repair Part List from Kitchenaid.com for
your model KSM90.

Also don't forget to tighten all the screws inside the mixers and use
fresh Kitchenaid Grade Food Grease for all the gears.

I have a sunbeam mixmaster from an Aunt that is at least 30 years old and it recently just stopped working. I assume that the motor is blown. Is it possible or worth it to fix it ?

Hi,
If the motor is blown it will most likely cost more to repair or replace the motor than buying a new mixer. However, It could be a break in the electrical cord or at the plug. Is there a 'burnt' smell in the mixer? If not, have the electrical cord checked by someone in the know before purchasing a new mixer.

Please don't hesitate to ask me should you need any more info.


Best wishes,
Graeme.

Just replaced the worm gear and cleaned out old grease adding clean new grease. Plugged the machine in and it will not run at all. The machine had been working but not well since I had stripped the worm...

Hi PEGNGEORGE. I can understand your frustration after getting all that work done for the gear and grease replacement just to find that it won’t run. Makes you want to scream. But before screaming, let's see what might be causing problems.
If your machine is not getting power to the motor, and you’re confident that the motor was not damaged by the stripped worm gear, which necessitated the replacement in the first place, then there are a few things that we can look at.
The easiest to check are the motor’s brushes. During your disassembly, did you remove either or both of the motor’s brushes (from the side of the mixer’s head)? If yes, then you need to check their alignment on the armatures’ commutator. The concave contact face should be resting completely on the comutator. If you've turned it 90 degrees too much, it wont' seat properly and you'll get no 'juice' to the electric motor so it won't start.
If the answer is no, and you said the mixer worked, but not well after the worm gear stripped, that would lead me to suspect the problem most likely will be with your speed control assembly.
Since you’ve already replaced the stripped worm gear, I imagine you have your mixer’s Parts List manual on hand, but if you don’t, you can download a PDF version from the KA website: http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/page/home.
Click on Customer Care>Locate Manuals & Guides> Enter the 6 character model number, in your case use K45SSW, and select the file listed under Parts List (1), K45SSWH0.pdf (341.41 KB). Check to ensure it matches your mixer model.
Turn to pages 6 & 7, titled: Motor And Control Parts, which provides an exploded view for the disassembly and reassembly of your mixer’s electrical components, along with all the parts. You’ll want to focus on Illus. No. 25, Control Plate Assembly.
First inspect around the control plate assembly to ensure all the wire connections are OK. It's possible a connection has come loose. Unfortunately the whole controller assembly is fabricated on a little PC board which was not meant to be 'home fixed', and my 'expertise' ends there. A local small appliance repair shop should be able to determine if the controller assembly is functioning properly or not, or you can just order replacement parts without the testing.
As far as parts go, here are four potential vendors in no particular order: RepairClinic.com; mendingshed.com; searspartsdirect.com; partstore.com. Prices for the same part can vary widely between vendors, so do your comparison shopping.
You may already know about the website links below when you replaced your worm gear, but it’s always good to keep these sites in your ‘toolbox’. Here are some links to several excellent websites that detail the disassembling/reassembly of a KA Mixer.
Between these three websites and their excellent pictures and descriptions and your Parts List manual, you should now be able to completely disassemble and reassemble your mixer.
Good luck and have fun. I hope this helps. Howard, Burke, VA

Mixer leaked come oil

This kind of unit are lubricated with grase paste. If the unit stays inactive for a long time, or if the motor and gears are overheating the grease paste gets melted into thin oil, and that will cause the leak.
The oil leak is usually coming from the gear box inside the appliance.
To fix the problem the unit must be taken apart, and cleaned. After this step, there is need to spread again the grease, using special foodsafe grease paste.
Disassemblying the gear box is not that easy, you will need previous experience and a gear puller to do the job properly and safely.
This appliances are also held with security screws to prevent the users from taking apart the unit, and can only be disassembled using a Security screwdriver tip.

The grease can be purchased here, check at the bottom of the page: Kenwood chef food mixer Grease.
