How to Fix KitchenAid Tilt Head Not Staying Locked
This has been an issue plaguing the tilt head style of mixers for years now. You add your ingredients, lower the head and lock it, then it just slips out sending ingredients flying all over the place. In this video we go over some of the reasons why this happens and how to fix it so you never have to worry about it again.
We'll be walking you through step by step on how to disassemble your mixer and replace your old lock lever with a new one. We have a full kit with everything you'll need in order to complete this project. We also sell each part individually if you only need a certain part.
Lock lever kit: www.mrmixer.store/store-2den3/p/lock-lever-kit
We hope this video helps those of you out there that have been living with this issue for years. Since KitchenAid hasn't decided to make an easy fix for this issue, we went ahead and did it for them.
If you need any parts/upgrades/repairs on your mixer or are looking to pick one up, make sure to check out our site! We also accept mixers shipped in for repairs!

    Mr Mixer… in your professional opinion what you think about this KA model; ksm50pwh. I have a friend that is considering giving it to me but not sure if it will cause problems for me since it was produced in the 2003 time frame… worried about using to make dough if the gears or motor will be able to handle it.

    I wish I could show you how mine came brand new, it was gifted to me and sent from a major online retailer. One of the arms was sticking out of the box because it had gotten thrashed in shipping and they didn't have any real packing around the midsection of the box. I can get the bowl on fine but it's always had a wobble as well as one spot in the bowl that even a scraper leaves a couple millimeters of product on the wall of the bowl. Since it was gifted and the retailer had no brick and mortar shops I had no idea how to go about returning it. Its held up okay but we knew we may have to replace it at some point.

    5:11 No, the metal cutout indentation is a catch. It prevents a worn out carbon brush from going in too far and damaging the armature on the electric motor. If the notch wasn't there, the worn out carbon brush would jump out of the holder and the spring would grind the armature.

They didn't even bother to write Deluxe on the band it's just blank or that would normally be. The quar bowl on the Tilthead can be useful for certain type of cakes where the batter expands like angel cake just gives you a little more room to work with.
