KG25H7XSL (Silver) KitchenAid Mixer - Instructions

removed the cover as stated in the e-mail and followed their recommendations on how to do the repair, the hardest part was removing the retainer clip, job went smoothly. thanks

Removed top cover, remove snap-ring on shaft, slide top gear and worm gear off. Clean all the grease out and clean parts. Installed new worm gear and parts. Repacked with new grease, careful not to much, leaving room for expansion.

I put the beater in the mixer when I wanted to make a cake. I wouldn't call it a repair. The most amazing thing was that it arrived the day after I called and ordered it!

Open the package with the new screw and it looked like the screw was wider. I tried it to see if it goes in and as long as you screw it straight in, there was no problem.

It took longer to remove from the box, Less than 10 seconds to install, push on shaft and quarter turn, that's it simple, now back to making homemade Marsh mellow covered in chocolate. New whip is sturdy and strong.

took old off and new fit right in saved me over $300.00 for new mixer !

This is Cindy, the person who ordered the part for Nancy. She was absolutely thrilled that she got it the very next day! She thought I had paid extra for overnight delivery! She is so pleased she doesn't have to listen to the noise the other wire whip was making when turned on. Cindy

Easy repair that replaced the variable speed switch. The broken switch only ran at high speed. To replace the mixer would cost at least $500. The new switch was $45 and was an easy install. I marked the four electrical leads with a Sharpie and loosened the two screws holding the switch. The repair was super easy. It was like heling an old friend recover from an illness.

I replaced my kitchen Aid mixer beaters. I bought two replacement beaters. They fit perfectly

took off the strap band around mixer, took off the cover (4 screws, took off gear cover (4 screws) took off the retaining ring(used pliers and screwdriver) took off upper gear, took out retaining pin, took off lower gear (becareful to grab the planetary assembly as it will fall out after you take out the retaining pin) cleaned out all of the gear grease (the teeth that were missing were in it. replaced the planetary assembly, lower gear and retaining pin. replaced the upper gear, replaced the retaining ring (used screwdriver and hammer. you have to spread the ring with end of screw driver so it will fit on the shaft then tap lightly with screwdriver and hammer to get it down to the keyway for the ring.) replaced the gear grease with NEW grease, reaplaced the gear cover, replaced the mixer cover, replaced the strap band and plugged it in to test it. IT was quieter than before and works great. i spent less than $30 to repair my 10 year old, out of warranty, Kitchen Aid Mixer. much better than the $32.00 to ship it to factory repair shop and get an estimate to repair. I needed it to make a cake for my nephews wedding. I had my parts in 2 DAYS!!! it was a great experience over all.

The transmission housing was cracked and one of the bearings was broken. I replaced both of them, but the mixer really didn't sound any better. So I replaced the gears in the transmission, and while that was better it still wasn't correct. I am going to replace the other bearing and the planetary shaft and see it that aligns everything a bit better. I believe the problem is the way the gear on the end of the motor shaft is working with the worm gear, the bearings are not keeping the correct spacing. Hopefully, the new one in the rear will fix the problem.

Removed the cover. Removed the gear assembly cover.. Extracted the C clip with a tool. Removed the bevel gear. Pushed out the dowel pin. Used rubber mallet to push the shaft off the worm gear. Replaced the washer and the worm gear. Used a 1/2" diameter PVC, 3" long over the shaft and on the gear to push back the shaft through the gear with rubber mallet. Pushed back the dowel pin. Reinstalled the C clip. Replaced broken hub bevel gear. Added more grease. Placed the gear cover with 4 screws just tight enough to hold the cover but still allows movement. Turned the mixer to the lowest speed. Allow the cover to self adjust so that the gears have the smoothest sound. Tightened the screws while while maintaining the smooth sound. Turned off the power. Replaced the cover.

Remove Beaty band, one screw. Remove four screws holding top. Remove worm gear, by simply lifting it out. Removed all grease. Repacked with fresh grease. Take out gear case/ transmission bearing, clear all old grease, repack with new grease. Install into new gear case housing. Assemble, and Repack new worm gear and front and rear worm gear bearings, utilize old washers (2), and one small ball bearing washer. Rotate worn gear and bushing to spread the new grease throughout the gears. Replace top cover, four screws . Replace beauty ring, one screw. Run unit for 20 to 30 seconds, under no load to distribute the new grease. Works like a charm. 45 minutes to one hour. To complete.

Great experience. Reasonable cost. Quick delivery. Would certainly use PartSelect again

I tried to use the broken mixer paddle for almost a year before I checked out the part broken on line. I easily found the part, and it arrived within a week--and fit perfectly! Thank you for making it so easy to do on line!
