REPAIRS TO BOWL LIFT ASSEMBLIES ON
BOWL LIFT MODELS
A.
The bowl lift models of KitchenAid mixers have
a different type of bowl and are different in size.
On the tilt head models, the bowl is held stationary
by mechanical means at the bottom of the mixer
pedestal; whereas, on bowl lift models, the bowl
support slides up and down gibs on the column.
B.
Should the mixer be tipped over or knocked off
the table or counter, the unit’s bowl support
assembly may be broken. To repair it, it will be
necessary to replace the bowl support.
C.
To replace the bowl support, remove the four
5/16”-18 x 3/4” round Phillips head screws (Fig. 84)
and lift the column and base assembly off the bottom
cover (Fig. 85). KSMC50 models use 5/16”- 18 x3/4”
hex head screws.
Fig. 84 Four round Phillips head screws must be removed to
replace the bowl support assembly.
D.
With the bowl lift assembly on the bench, lay it
on its back and then remove the four 5/16”-18 x 3/4”
round head screws (Fig.# 86) from the base and set
the base aside.
E.
Remove the two #10-24x1/2” flat head screws
from the bowl support (Fig. 87) and slide the bowl
support down and off the column (Fig. 88).
F.
Examine the bowl lift arm. This part is held on the
bowl lift handle with a tapered pin.
If the arm is cracked at the pin hole, replace it.
If there is any fault with the column, replace it at
this time.
