GREASE

I opened the mixer and determined that the worm gear had failed, as designed, to save the other gears. There was also oil separated from the grease and it needed replaced. The Transmission case gasket was damaged and must have been from the time it was built. I removed the grease with putty knife and kept I on a plastic plate until the parts came in (to determine the amount needed when I replaced it.) I used the punch to remove the two pins needed with light tap from hammer. I left the mixer in pieces on the counter until the parts arrived. I replaced the gear and all other parts and placed fresh grease in the mixer. I had to adjust the beater, too. I had removed one of the bushings by mistake. When mixer was back together it would not start. IT TOOK SOME TIME BUT I FOUND ANOTHER WEB SITE THAT EXPLAINED HOW TO REPLACE THE BUSHING. TAKE A FLASHLIGHT AND LOOK INTO THE SQUARE BRUSH HOLDER. THERE IS A DETANT IN THE HOLDER. THE SHAVED SIDE OF THE BRUSH NEEDS TO SLIP PAST THE DETENT TO BE ABLE TO TOUCH THE AMATURE. Once that was done, it worked great. Very smooth with new gear and grease.

Took the cover off of the transmission and replaced gears, pin and gasket and added new grease.

Watched the video several times. Once I received the parts, I watched it again to see specific sections. Repair was easy when I knew what to expect. It would help if the video could be in sections, so you would not have to watch the entire beginning in order to see later instructions. Also found the parts manual on line and ordering of parts was very easy and processed correctly by your company. Really appreciated your help.

When installing the transmission housing I cant seem to get the two end bushing and ball bearing thrust washer all back in on the worm gear
