Hinge pin that stabilizes head on base came out.
2. Slipped the pin out and replaced it with the new one.
3. Note: it is easier if you gently lay the mixer on its side as you have to match the hole on the head to those on the base.
4. It slipped out without any force and the new one only required a gentle tap with a rubber mallet.
