5KP2670-3 KitchenAid Mixer - Instructions

My husband removed screws and took top off mixer. Then he took out the gears and cleaned them from all the grease. After he did that he could see the gears that were all worn. We went on line ordered the new gears and in a couple of days the parts were here and he put them back in and greased it all again and put the top and screws back in place. Mixer sounds much quieter. Thank you.

followed directions given, removed all the old grease .did a short test run , then replaced with new grease. the reason the gear was striped was my fault mixing too much bread at one time. we have a coffee house and use the mixer every day.

Could not get it properly installed. Had to take to a repair center for completion.

Easy thanks to your instructions

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.

Removed old housing, pulled spring clip, slide on new gear and replaced clip. Put on new gasket and housing. Replaced outer cover. Done.

so easy to remove the switch. I first marked the wires, 1-2-3-4 and then removed them from the old switch. removed the old switch and replaced with the new one and plugged in the wires as per markings. tried it out before replacing the top and it works perfectly. no longer timid about effecting repairs on my own. the diagrams on the website were a great help. this is a great company to do business with. part was here in 3 days.
