Planetary Came looss and beaters fell into food
I went to YouTube and there are several Mixer repair videos that go through step by step. Four ounces of food sate grease is also required as the grease must be changed. This appears to be a a common problem. One issue that I discovered is that the old planetary had an Oring in the shaft The replacement parts do not. They must have changed the design so please make sure that food safe grease is used.

Stripped Gear Mixer would not mix
I have replaced so much on this mixer I can take it apart in my sleep. # speed controllers and now 2 gears. just wish we still had the 40 year old mixer we had, never half as many problems. New are not made like the old.

The mixer started making a loud knocking noise
Unscrew the top and remove it , 4 more screws to remove the top of gear box , wipe out the old grease , lift the gears , but to remove the center gear you need a special narrow tip plier to remove the snap ring . Changed the center gear , apply new food grade grease and with reverse order putting back all remaining parts . Worked fine .

Speed switch bad and Initially thought new part was wrong!
At first thought part was incorrect as the electrical connection tabs on the circuit board were not inline as the existing part. However, upon closer examination I realized that the same quantity of tabs existed on the new part and although not inline, were clearly marked the same as the original part. Unit was easily replaced and is operating just like new.

Bad speed control
Thank goodness for YouTube. Pretty much followed the process of taking it out. Was easy, but having a video made it a bit simpler.
