Thanks so much for an easy fix! Gonna make a donation for your help. I think it's only fair to throw a couple bucks your way for saving me a load of cash in the long run.
I appreciate you so much!!
I want to thank you! My KA has been in constant service for me for 33 years, and was at least 20 years old when I bought it from the original owner. I replaced brushes right away, and have re-greased it about every ten years since.
Today your video gave me a chance to have ten full speeds!
OMG dude I can't thank you enough! I've been cooking with my Artisan for years, and it's annoyed me so much because it's "stir" speed always spits anything in it out the sides because it goes so fast. I did your test and it was over 2x as fast as it should be, and the fix was sooo simple! Many thanks from Belgium!
Super happy to help =)
Yeahhh I had the same problem at the same country 😂
The very same reason I'm here lol
My service centre charges $80 just to assess my mixer, servicing is another charge! After watching this video, I’m totally servicing my mixers myself. Thanks a heap from New Zealand!
More than happy to help! If you need any parts we offer everything you may need on our website and we do ship to NZ 😊
@@MrMixer316 definitely need some grease and the grease picks. Thanks again dude!
I work on industrial equipment for a living. This machine surprised me because of its quality. Most of the equipment I take apart, at home, is junk. Disposable garbage that isn't worth rebuilding.
This machine is an exception. Thank you for the videos and the ability to order parts
It's a pleasure to be of service!
Yup. Even though Kitchen Aid mixers aren't quite as skookum as they used to be, they are still far better than the vast majority of "consumer" (I hate that designation) crap on the market.
Your video saved my wife's "Classic" from the scrap heap. She took it to a KitchenAid Certified tech over ten years ago because the lower speeds weren't working. The "Certified" tech "repaired" the mixer and told her he had to bypass the low speed gears. So all this time we thought that the "gearbox" wasn't serviceable. I ran across your speed tuning video, tuned it myself, and had it humming like new in less that 15 minutes. No parts required. Thanks. I now know where to go if I need service or parts.
I bought my pro 600 years ago and only did the dime adjustment with it and put a cover on it! I have numerous attachments that I haven't tried yet. I like learning how to do all the things you show here! I used to work on many appliances for Sears. Washers and dryers, bench power tools, recreation equipment, garage door openers and outdoor grills!
Thank you so much! I just got the 100th anniversary(my Mother-in-law bought it and stored it for two years because I LOVE the color) as a wedding gift and I noticed the stir speed was WAY too fast. When I did the finger gun test, I got 17 rotations instead of 10 in 10 seconds. The adjustment was so much easier that I was expecting and thank you for being so thorough! I have a hard time following verbal directions, so the visual with the verbal explanation was SO helpful. My husband can attest to how excited I got when I fixed the speed! No more flour all over the place when I am on the stir setting!! I have also bought the EverDime + spring and washer bundle for myself and the two mixers my MIL recently bought.
We also had called KitchenAid about the spring and washer being missing, because they still show the spring and washer on the box the mixers come in, and they told us they no longer made them and that they were not necessary. I found your videos on tiktok and it confirmed my suspicion that the spring and washer actually serves and important purpose! Sad ways companies are trying to save pennies now. Any who, thank you again!
❤️ Happy to help! I appreciate you!
Thank you! My start switch did not engage, the stud allowed for a little play, which translated to a too large gap. I slightly bent the copper V profile and now it’s good. Your guide to speed calibration is a gem!
My mixer had been running at 2 from start (no stir) for YEARS. Decided to finally search for a fix, and came across this beautifully simple tutorial. No sending it needed. SO unbelievably grateful for this, even if it is 3 years after it was uploaded.
It's a pleasure to be of assistance!
best videos on UA-cam for Kitchenaid repair! just bought the Artisan mixer last year and it started not working on stir about 8 months later. watched your video on adjusting the speeds and turns out the lock down nuts either came loose or weren't tightened properly. thank you again for the help!
So incredibly welcome, thank your for the feedback! We attempt to produce the highest quality/detailed videos we can! So happy to help!
Thanks bud, my mom passed away 3 years ago, I brought her kitchen aid home, first time using it one of the gears striped, I ordered all the parts from you and everything worked out great, but the speeds weren’t right, so I just watched this video and Buddha bing it’s perfect now, I use this big boy to mix my sausage mixture so I don’t freeze my hands off, it will be so much nicer now. Thanks again bud.
🇮🇹😎🇮🇹
Sorry to hear about your mother, it's our pleasure to help keep her memory alive. I appreciate you
I can't thank you enough for this video. I finally was able to fix an old kitchenaid I inherited and learned a few things along the way! Thanks a million!!!!
You have helped me so much, I never realized how serviceable these things are pretty much completely fixable for the most part
Absolutely, basically nothing on them that can't be fixed!! Happy to help!
Your videos are great. My classic model k45ss made a horrible noise and stopped working. First I changed the worm gear and regreased per your videos. Also changed out the motor brushes. There was a funny looking piece loose inside when I opened the end cap, so I kind of ignored it. Turns out it was a weight from the governor, lol.so I replaced the speed control board and the governor. It was working but still sounded rough, and worse when I replaced the end cap. I saw another video of a guy tightening the nuts on the metal frame behind the control board. In fact, he zapped himself while doing it. Sure enough, those nuts were very loose, almost falling off. I tightened those (while unplugged) and voila, replaced the end cap and much quieter!! You may want to mention this. Thank you so much! I'm a 65 yr old grandma and I loved fixing this even though it was very frustrating also. it was like a puzzle!
Brushes were half way down (compared to what you held up) 10 year old machine with normal use. However they worn non uniformly so I think they were struggling to make good contact. I just sanded them smooth and worked again.
As far as orientation. The brushes are 6x6mm but notched in one of the four corners. Likely to require brand servicing. The notch looked removed in post production. Orientation was not uniform. Shining a light down the tunnel reveal the indentation to avoid. Could probably just bend it out of the way to fit normal brushes.
While at it. I removed the back cover. Our machine is a 220v. Purchased in the US knowing we would take it overseas. From day one the stir speed (number one on mine) would only work half of the time and barely if it had a load. After moving overseas, and no longer needing a transformer, the problem remained. Glad I saw your video. Finished tuning with a digital rpm counter.
You Should consider making a clean 5 tips for maintaining or servicing your KA video. Maybe remove some of the fluff and edit well. Good to your another diy channel
Super motivated to fix this issue with my mixer. I love my KitchenAid - circumstances change and I can’t afford a new one. Since retiring I have time to work on my mixer. Thank you!
Thank you so much 🙏👏👏 This video really helped me. It was exactly what I needed to do to adjust the speed and it was easy. I really appreciate you taking the time to do this video. I have a refurbished machine and I thought it was going to be trashed. God bless you and your family.
This video helped me diagnose the problem with my second-hand Classic mixer. After ordering pin punches and a new speed control board from your website, this video helped me disassemble the mixer so I could access the detached tension spring, swap out a broken board, and tune my new speed board. Once I had the correct pieces, the process took me about an hour. I'm sure any future attempts will go much smoother.Thank you Mr Mixer!
Thanks so much for this video! After I finished re-greasing my Artisan, it wasn't turning on unless the speed was at least 6. I must have messed with these screws at some point. Now it is perfectly calibrated and ready for my next baking adventure.
Thanks a million for the great video. I just gave my Kitchenaid a speed tune-up and it's working like a charm. You're the best!
I am so glad I found your page.. I picked up a free Kitchen-Aid b/c the gears wouldn’t shift. Took it apart and turns out the metal rod inside was plastic and had melted. Will be ordering your metal replacements and will have my dream mixer. YAY!!!
Such a pleasure to be of service! Let me know if you need any assistance!
Soo...fun factoid. The governor balls which move out with centrifugal force to keep the mixer from spinning too fast were used years ago on steam engines. The shaft was oriented up and down so the balls swung outward and release steam pressure preventing catastrophic over revving.
This is where the phrase "balls out" comes from, as in, "We were hauling butt...balls out!"
Oh wow that is a fun fact!
Always wondered where that came from.
I’ve had my kitchenaid for over 10 years, used at least once a week since, and I’ve never had to do anything to it. This helped me with fixing low speeds, thanks so much!!!
Just a million thanks. I'm from Brazil, my KA is imported and I messed up the speed control while degreasing it. Now I can make it like new and my wife will be happier, and not trying to kill me
Happy to help from afar! I appreciate you
Thank you so much! I feel so capable to fix my machine now with your videos. I got the speed set and i also watched your video troubleshooting when your mixer won't turn on and fixed that too. I also took the mixer apart to put new gear grease inside. It runs so much better now!
OMG THANK YOU! This was the perfect video to set my Kitchenaid's speed. I had seen a few videos on doing this but none were as thorough as your video. Turns out, there was no issue with the speed itself, one of wires was half hanging off and you explaining how all the items connect helped me spot it.
10/10, now to go order parts instead of getting my mixer fixed. I was THIS close to just sending it to you, now I can use that money for accessories ;)
Went from no worky, to completely fixed with several of your videos! Thank you!
My pleasure! Love to be of service!
Thank you this worked so well. Our kitchen aid came with basically no stir speed, it was at 15 rotations per 10 seconds. Didn’t even know it was possible to do this. Now I’m going to start watching your other videos to find out what else I can do haha
We have an extensive guide to most repairs, with more coming out in the not too distant future
Thank you very much! Our KitchenAid Pro would continue to run even though handle was in the off position. Just a little corrective adjustment to the speed control board and it's like a brand new mixer.
Thank you for the guidance. I was able to fix my mixer by just turning the screw that held the spring. No more flour storms! Can mix things at the lowest speed now.
Thank you again!
Thank you for your effort. My problem - thanks to you - is fixed. It was not at all hard to do, but the attempt would have been fruitless without your information.
Pleasure to help!
Thank you so mmuuuchh! New to the mixer game. My lever were not touching so I just pushed the bottom part a bit and now its working!!! 🙌🏼
At the end of this video you asked us the question “Do you think I’m stupid”? Well, using a screwdriver without an insulated shaft when adjusting the speed control gets very close to it. I’ve your best interests at heart my friend and you’ve a young family to support, so please take all precautions.
I’ve been an electrical engineer for over 50years and the sparky tingly stuff still scares me to death.
It's rare, but minor electric shocks can disrupt your heartbeat (cardiac arrhythmia) causing no symptoms initially, but weird symptoms and death hours or even days later.
You're risking it anytime you work on live equipment, but at least an insulated screwdriver set would reduce your daily exposure to the risk.
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to fix my machine, thanks to seeing this. My mixer wouldn't stir at the right speed, way too fast. While your video helped me adjust it, the big issue was that the entire board wasn't secure due to one of the two screws/nuts on either side having come out. So it wabbled while running and messed up the speed, of course. When I took off the cap, I found a nut and noticed it was off one of the screws. Once tightened in place, the stir speed was nearly ideal, but again, thanks to your video, I tuned it to what I wanted (I like it slow. Otherwise, flour goes flying). Now it works as good as new, which is amazing size. I bought it back in 2005 and use the mixer several times a month. THANK YOU!!!
My pleasure to be of service! Check out some of our really cool upgrades we offer on our website mrmixer.store ❤️
Thank you for your simple and easy to follow instructions on the speed adjustment.
You’ve literally saved me hours of time and hundreds of dollars with your vids. Very well done and super easy to follow!
It's a pleasure to be of service!
Thanks so much for this video. You saved my kitchenaid, I baught it at a good price, a second hand and I have a speed problem your part at 12min resolve my problem. I haven't any speed at level 1 and at 2 it goes very fast... 😑 So just adjust it and bingo! ❤️ Take care and many thanks from Belgium 🇧🇪
Hey thanks a lot friend! We have an old 84 unit and the speed panel was loose and just needed to be tweaked. Now we have all of our speeds corrected and the 1 gear back! Appreciate it greatly! God bless! John 3:16
Bought from your site thanks to this website. Thanks for contributing to the worlds knowledge base.
Thank you so much for supporting us! We appreciate you! It's a pleasure to help
Thanks man! It helped me a lot, after watching the troubleshooting video. Great work
fantastic review, very helpful, thank you
Thanks so much for your informative videos!
I landed on this video because my wife's grandmother's mixer had no stir speed. Interestingly enough the two nuts and lock washers behind the speed control board were missing. This caused the entire back cover of the machine and speed control board to never remain in place and the speed to constantly change. So 65 cents worth of #10-24 nuts got the 25 year old machine running like new.
I still found your video very helpful with adjusting the speed to factory settings!
We have videos on the bearing bracket as well as the nuts coming loose and how to replace it as it's a common fail point! Glad you were able to figure it out!
@@MrMixer316 that is great to know! Thanks for the great content!
@@MrMixer316 Quick question for you, is it possible the original bearing bracket nuts could have fallen out of the machine at some point? I didn't see any places I thought were small enough for them to fall out but I could be wrong.
@@hornet7288 they can fall out, but it's more likely they are down in the mixer somewhere!
@@MrMixer316 i tried to shake it around some and didnt hear them. Oh well, works like a champ now!
You did get around to presenting the info I was after so big thanx from coastal BC...
Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you again for these amazing videos! Ive just recalibrated by speed control board and its perfect!!
Glad we could help! 😃
Am 82 years old and l’ve done it so easy thank you for your help Chang spread control phase control and carbon brushes no problem thank you
excellent video. Thank you for sharing this
Viewed several of your videos and fixed three different problems, thasnks!
Such a pleasure!
You were such a help to me- thank you!!!!
It is literally such a pleasure to be able to help!
Thank you. You really helped us out!
My pleasure! Glad to help!
Thanks for the helpful video. Our relatively new mixer suddenly only had speeds 1 and 2, all other speeds nothing. After watching a lot of your video I realized the white wire on bottom right of speed board was not connected. Plugged it back in and everything was fine. Also noticed the black and white wires on left side of board were routed such that the wire was pressing hard on adjacent connector, would have been a nice short eventually.
Happy to help! I appreciate you!
Your videos are of great help, unfortunately I'm not a do it yourself person. Thankfully I found this video that showed the complete wall with all your contact information on it. May I suggest you show it at the end of all your videos.
Awesome video. Thanks a bunch! 👍🏼 Adorable Family! 🙏🏼
Awesome help thanks so much!
Thank you for making this video. I have a KitchenAide Classic that belonged to my husband. It hadn’t been used for a couple of years, so I decided to see if it still worked before passing it on to one of the girls. It was making a weird noise & didn’t seem to be seem to be spinning correctly. I was testing it, following a UA-cam Video. Found your video, followed along, and it sounds so much better. Keep up the good work. I’ll be ordering some grease. Can you recommend anything else as preventive maintenance parts? I’d like to order from you. You have a beautiful family😊
Thanks for your helpful videos! I degreased and greased; then I adjusted the speeds. Im not getting anything on speed 8 & 10, but it also just doesn't sound right. I guess I'd describe it little bit like it's grinding.
Loosen the bottom screw on the speed plate a bit and you'll get more speeds, check the nuts that hold the bearing bracket in place they can become loose and make a grindy sound! Don't over tighten them either!
Great vids, thanks !
Outstanding video. My mixer is now a precision machine again. Turns out stir was about double speed.
I have a slight surge on low speeds on an older machine. Speed control board? Thanks for your help, your videos are awesome!!
Covering the shank of the screwdriver with heat shrink tubing will reduce the chance of being electrocuted. The reason you only received a mild shock when you touched a hot component is because your shoes provided insulation preventing the electricity from going through your body to ground. If the shop floor is concrete the situation can be extremely dangerous.
Alright! Excellent Tutorial. Much appreciated!
My pleasure to be of service
This was great! Thank you. I now have a problem where sunbeam mixer will not stay off. Suggestions?
thank you so much! You saved the day :)
Fantastic channel! Thanks for putting in all the effort to make these videos! Found you when I dove into troubleshooting my own mixer. Our Classic Plus (KSM75WH) quit mid-mix several months ago after 16 years of trustworthy service. I've since replaced: brushes, governor, phase control board, and today the new speed control plate (purchased from your site) - still nothing: no movement or sound on any speed setting. Verified power on the speed control board with a multimeter; confirmed the contact lever on the speed control plate is contacting correctly. Any tips or ideas on what to check next?
Thankyou, great explanation and now my mixer is behaving
Happy to help!!
Love this video, best one I’ve found to walk through speed controls for our Kitchenaid mixer.
I replaced the speed control plate on our Custom because of cracked plastic. But now the mixer is always on if plugged in. The copper contact “arm” on the back of the board is always in contact, but I can’t figure out how best to bend/adjust it so it only has contact when the throttle is engaged. Any tips would be awesome!
Thank you , Thank you, Thank you that was the easiest thing to fix useing your knowledge simple adjustment on the board and my wife has all the speeds back.
Hi Mr. Mixer, your videos are just amazing! I've watched almost all of them. Thanks for sharing your knowledge! I just bought a used KitchenAid Artisan mixer and it runs too fast on the stir speed (about 84-90 rpm). However I did follow the instructions and screwed the top 2 screws all the way in and could not reduce the speed at all (the machine actually wasn't able to start at that point as expected). Do you have any ideas of what could be wrong? Note: the bowl has dents in its bottom so probably the previous owner probably used it for some time without having the head at the correct height. Thanks in advance from Brazil.
I have the same problem, but couldn't find the reason yet
So good, thanks for the video!! Any ideas for fixing one where the top two screws are fully tightened and it still spins extremely fast?
Absolutely it's either the spring on the bottom of the speed plate isnt connected, the governor weights are missing or most probable, the phase control board needs swapped! Super easy swap, we offer them on our site!
Thank you so much. I will definitely show my husband and have him figure it out 🥰
Dont wait for your husband! You can do it
Many thanks to you I was able to fix my wifes Kitchen Aide Mixer.
thank you very much!
Yay. Finally the video I need.
Thank you for being here you are appreciated!
Thanks mate!!!
I recently inherited a Artisan model kitchen aid from my mom, its probably a few years old already but most likely seldom used. I noticed that 1 thru 6 go the same speed (probably the speed no.4 should be) and and only speeds up at 8 and 10. I tried adjusting the screws on the speed control plate at the back but there is no change in speed, and i only manage to turn it off and on again with no speed variations using the screws. Any thoughts on this?
Very well shared info. I just need to know if there's a hack so the counterweights won't comeoff flying. Maybe a glue at the back most tip?
If you're talking about the governor, you probably need a new one!
Sir I am a 66 year-old paramedic. I have massage the human heart, I have given people tracheotomy. But what I have never ever been willing to do is try to figure out why this twenty-five-year-old mixer was throwing liquids out of the bowl on speed one. This was an excellent and definitive video and I appreciate the time you took. I am giving this a try this Saturday giving this a try Saturday. One other thing I did notice yesterday that there was like a yellow grease running down in streaks where the spinning head is where you put your attachments on not a lot but a little I was wondering if there are there seals in that head or is that mean it's reaching end-of-life we've had it for 30 years and I know we've never serviced it but we are not heavy users maybe two times a month through our marriage. It is a KitchenAid 6-quart with the Tilt style head like yours.
No seal there.. Its just 'spitting' out grease/oil. If its liquid, the grease has probably broken down(maybe original grease!). Watch his other videos on how to re-grease
I have a professional 550 HD and I was using the dough hook to work some dough and suddenly I saw some smoke coming out of the mixer and it shut off and won't turn back on. Any advice?
Our mixer fell off the counter and hit the floor. Ever since then the speed seems off and the planetary will stop spinning if there is too much resistance from like thick dough. Edit: I think I fixed it all three speed control screws were at different lengths so I evened the top 2 and fine tuned the bottom screw until the mixer returned to proper stirring. Hopefully it works on the next thick batch of dough.
Even if you don't kiss every box (your lips would be parched LOL) the energy is still there
Love your sense of humor
Appreciate the video. I tried adjusting, but stir is still about the same as 2. What do you recommend I look at next?
Replacing the speed plate will likely help!
@@MrMixer316 thank you for the reply. I sent a message to your business page.
You the man bro thanks I want to get some grease but can't find here . Do you ship to nova scotia Canada
I have Artisan 5KSM150. Recently I replaced shift gear using the tutorial from UA-cam.
Now the mixer is working well until it comes to the mixing of thick masses. When the mixer need to deal with dough that is difficult to knead it gets stuck.
What can be the root case and the possible solution? Thank you in advance.
Quick question, the Kitchenaid Professional I'm working on has 5 speeds and I'm running into an issue on speeds 4 and 5. (This would be roughly 8 - 10 on a normal Kitchenaid mixer.) I can't get it to mix as fast as my other Kitchenaid mixer highest setting. So I removed my speed control on my good Kitchenaid mixer that works through all the speeds and put it on my Kitchenaid mixer that was giving me issues. After replacing the speed control I was once again having issues on speeds 4 and 5 (Which would be speeds 8-10) I think it's safe to say it's not the speed control as it works just fine on my good Kitchenaid mixer at full speed.
I'm looking for some insight where I might look next since it's not the speed control. Thanks for the time!
Sweet video! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I tuned my mixer using your video!
My mixer kind of sticks when I'm slowing down the speed.
I'll go from 8 to 6 and the mixer shuts off.
And then from 6-4 itll jump back up to speed. What would you suggest?
It also has a brand new speed control board in it
Pay close attention to what the little tab that drops to make connection when you put it into gear as you switch through those speeds, check and see if the little lever is bent. Check the governor to see if it's broken as well! It could also potentially be an issue with the phase board but not as likely.
@@MrMixer316 have you seen the governors failing?
It's almost looks like the spring isn't strong enough to reset the governor. I sprayed some wd40 on it and it didn't really help
It is spinning tho so it's definitely doing something
@@whereisdave yes they fail on occasion! I've seen them jammed/broken/seized etc
Thank you for your videos! They have given me the confidence to repair my mixer. As I did not have Stir, 2 or 4, I have replaced the speed control board and now have 2 and 4 back but no Stir. The copper plate does not connect and I've tried adjusting all 3 screws. Any other suggestions?
Send me an email mrmixer316@gmail.com
Thank you for the explanation of how my mixer controls it's speed. I have a weird one though. Everything is fine speed wise until it hits 'High' speed. Then, it just slows to a crawl. Speed 8 is fine but 'High' - crawl. Do you have an idea of where to look first to adjust? Subscribed
It could be an issue with the phase board, or your speed plate itself my be bad or slightly bent causing it to lose connection in the higher gear, the only other issue it could be is the governor.
@@MrMixer316 Wow, thanks for the super quick response. I will look into what you suggested. Have a great day!
@@Scaryladyvideos you are very welcome! You as well!
You just saved my wife from buying another one of these for her bakery classes many thanks
Happy to help!
I have an older K45SS (Hobart) that I re-greased. Put it all together and now there is a grinding sound from the rear and it surges. Any ideas?
Thank you!!!
I have K5SS 220v version. What is the correct sparepart number for speed controller? Or is it same part in 120volt version?
Hi! A kitchenaid artisan where the speed only works in full gear/tilt is fixable by just changing a spring?
I love your enthusiasm! I sought help for the problem of the stir speed not turning slow enough. I've watched your video and have tried to do the low speed adjustment but it will not slow down to the 60 rpm or thereabouts. I adjusted the two low speed screws to the point where the motor will not run and then backed it off every so slightly. It then will run but not at ~ 60 rpm. Any thoughts on what else might be keeping the motor from turning at the proper speed?
There are a few things it could be. It could be the spring at the bottom of the speed plate is not connected, it could be a bad phase board that needs replaced or it could be an issue with the governor. I'd check the spring first, then replace the phase board as that is the most common.
@@MrMixer316 Thank you for your prompt reply Mr. Mixer. After I posted my question, I changed the motor brushes and guess what? That solved the problem! I wasn't able to adjust the plate to get it to turn as slow as it should but as soon as I started it after replacing the brushes, it immediately started to turn slower. Maybe you know why that happened but I'm at a loss to figure out why it did. As I'm writing this, my wife is making bread, a cake, and will grind some pork butt a little later on. She uses this machine a lot and now after replacing the gears that stripped, adding some grease, and replacing the brushes; it runs like a champ. Thanks again for your help and maybe you can pass my solution to my problem on to help another person fine-tune their Kitchen Aid mixer.
Another nice video. If the top speed doesn’t work, would that be a tune-up issue or replacing plate issue?
Sometimes you can get it by adjustment, if it still won't work the speed plate may need replaced!
@@MrMixer316 Thank you for the quick reply. PS, cute baby! I guess toddler by now.
I have a KSM90 kitchen aid mixer. It turns on and off with the switch but runs at full speed at all positions. I am taking it apart today to see if the spring is off the speed control plate. Could it be the electronics? Do they make a replacement part for my model, and is it worth it being an older model. Thanks for the videos. I feel better about opening it up.
Absolutely if it isn't the spring then it's 99.9% the phase control board! We offer them on our website and they are super easy to install! www.mrmixer.store/store-2den3/p/ozlwgzfp6h2nud7fz0koriiasoe68u-9c92p-7t3dc
I just replaced the worm gear. Now the mixer doesn’t seem to generate any power (nothing happens) until speed 8. Is this a tuning/speed control problem?
Adjusting the screws didn’t change anything so wanted to consult before ordering any additional replacement parts. Thank you!
Hi there, firstly I'm so happy I came across your UA-cam channel, it's so informative, I've just treated myself to pistachio Artisan which I love, but I've just purchased a orange Artisan from eBay, I'm here in Leeds UK, my eBay purchase is a 110v US import, I've purchased a step up/down inverter from Amazon and the machine works but stir is running at over twice the speed it should be, there doesn't seem to be much difference between first three speeds and it sounds weird, I've followed your video to adjust the speeds and made all adjustments I can but still running far too fast at lower power levels, I've tested the inverter and it's kicking out 122v, I don't know if this could be a problem but I'm sending it back to Amazon and buying a different brand, I'm just wondering if you can shed any light on this, the seller said it had never been used and it certainly looks great with no sign of wear, I'm just wondering if someone may have tried to power it up on UK 240v? But it does have a US plug on it, just wondering if you can help? Many thanks.
Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android
It's possible, it's really hard to say. There are 4-5 things that could be going on with it, even before adding the inverter and power change to the mix
Hey there! Thanks for the super helpful video. I have a Kitchenaid mixer that makes a loud noise when turning off from high speeds. It looks like the governor is vibrating against the speed control module. Is there any adjustment for this? It runs fine otherwise!
That's actually pretty standard, not all mixers do it but a fair amount do, I wouldn't stress it too much! I don't think it justifies changing any parts
@@MrMixer316 thank you so much - I figured it wasn’t anything to worry about but just wanted to make sure. Cheers!
