20 Most Recent Kenwood KM400 / KM410 Chef Classic Stand Mixer Questions & Answers

I couldn't remove the K-Beater as when I tried to turn it the whole mechanism turned with it. I couldn't even remove the splashguard! I was going to take it to the Kenwood factory (a few miles from home) but then I thought I'd give it one more go and this is what I did...

1. Next to where the K-Beater attaches in the middle of the circular plate is a lug with a pointed-shape bolt on the end. Remove this with a spanner and the beater plus gear cog can be removed.
2. Place some mole grips or wide pliers on a worktop and sit the cogged gear in to it and grip so that it won't turn.
3. Now you should be able to remove the K-Beater!

Perhaps someone can suggest how to stop it happening again. I haven't attached anything since but will update this post if I have any other helpful tips.

Hi, the new style tools do not fit old style mixers, yours probably had the small circlip on the shaft, the new ones dont have this, and it's this what held your tool in place

Hi, Can you please send me copy of A701A service manual. My email address is [email protected] Thanks

I think you should contact a service rather than opening and cleaning your device for you to be sure that your device will be fixed correctly...

I have read on other posts that it is the nut at the top of the beater that is causing the problem. You need to rotate it downwards toward the beater in order to have sufficient room to push and rotate the beater out. This didn't work for me, nor did attempting to remove the whole plate by undoing the lug beside the beater insert. Now that I have worn the lug and the nut I cannot get it repaired at a Kenwood service specialist as I have attempted the repair myself.My advice is to go straight to a professional. Whatever they charge it will be cheaper than being stuck with a machine you can only use some of the time and have to replace!

Hi, this is the drive pinion, have a look on ebay ukRegards
