Mixer beater bar would slip under pressure

It is very easy repair. first you take off the cover then take off the gear box cover. After you remove snap ring the gears slide off. The hardest part is cleaning off all the old grease so you don't have slivers of metal from bad parts ruining the new parts. Just put together in reverse order. If you use the mixer a lot, and mix dough or things heavy you'll be doing this more than once. To make it last longer use on low speed, maybe #2.

I removed the top shroud to access the motor and gearbox. I removed the top of the gearbox and replaced both broken gears plus the snap ring that held the drive gear in place.

Take your time and look at the drawings online and print out to reference as you make repairs. I replaced all the gears since the main drive gear was sheared. Mixer works good as new.
