Gear-worm teeth stripped, teeth on pinion shaft worn to sharp edge and case gasket dried out. Not bad for a 20 yr. old mixer.

Looked at the mixer schematic form your website,which made it easy for me to take it apart. Once it was apart & all the grease removed I disassembled & cleaned all the drive parts. Saw what was warn, ordered the parts from you. Three days later received the parts, everything fit perfect. Added grease,assembled the mixer and it ran perfect , good for another 20 yrs. Thank you for making it so easy to repair an old mixer in just over two hours. Rolf

worn worm-gear replacement

Repairing/replacing worm-gear (FSP part# W10112253) for a KitchenAid Stand Mixer model number K5SS. First: I am writing this story because all the videos or repair articles I’ve viewed are either misleading or incorrect in that they do not include older K5SS models. 1. These older models from the mid 1960’s or even earlier have four very large #4 chrome plated Phillips Head Screws holding the mixer base to the motor assembly and NOT four small machine screws (one with a lock-washer) as seen on other repair videos. In addition, the stand is composed of two separate pieces with the bottom half being held together with another four identical #4 chrome plated Phillips Head Screws. The upper four holding the stand to the motor housing (I used a manual impact driver to loosen the very stubborn, #4 Phillips screws) must be removed so as to access the four smaller Phillips machine screws (no lock-washers found here, best buy at least four #10, split, before reassembly) 2. Lastly, you will need two pin punches however the recommended smaller 3/32 inch is still too large to remove the pin in the tower assembly. You will need one size smaller or a #4 pin punch instead. These older Kitchen Aid mixers were built with very tight tolerances. Please be patient and take your time removing the pins. Good Luck……. Jim

stripped worm gear

i disassembled the mixer until i could remove the worm gear; is in a housing that that includes another gear and shaft. make sure you have a magnetic tray to put parts in as you work or you will spend more time looking for parts than reassembling the mixer. once you have the gear housing out you will need a small diameter punch to drive out the pin that holds the gears in the housing(i used a 5/32 transfer punch.) make sure you punch the pin out where it will be caught or you will need to order that part because you will not find it. after knocking the pin out it is just a matter of removing the old gear, putting the new one in, and reversing the steps and getting everything reassembled.

I removed the spring loaded brush screw on the side of my mixer and lost it the next day. I found a schematic of this part on your website and ordered the four pieces that make up the brush screw(?). They arrived in just a few days and I referred back to the schematic to put it together. I then popped it in my mixer, screwed it down, plug ged her in and away we go! Easiest repair I’ve ever done! I’m a 70 year old retired lady and not very handy, but this was an easy fix! Thank you, PartSelect!

bowel would come out of screwcap when making dough for pasta

  • Robert from AURORA, CO

The repair was easy only requiring a phillips head screw driver to remove the old screw cap. The new screw cap fit snuggly and required a little downward pressure from my hand to seat it. Then I simply tightened the screws. Good as new for this 30+ year old mixer. My wife loves this mixer that was given to her by her Aunt. Glad we co uld keep it going.
