You will need a 'step-down' transformer with a rating of at least 500 watts (~500 VA), a primary designed for 220 Volts and a secondary rated at 110-115 Volts.
This type will have four terminals or leads and isolates the input from the output.
There is a non-isolating type called an 'autotransformer' which has one winding with a tap (total of three terminals) roughly in the middle.
I use this type for certain devices but it is not as safe as the first-described type.
If you are living in a foreign country that uses the ~220 Volt standard, you can sometimes get one on 'semipermanent' loan from the local utility.

I am having problems with my k5ss kitchenaid mixer. The problem happens when i tryed to even mix butter and sugar the paddle would not rotate under a load. It works fine with without any products in the bowl but as soon as i try to mix anything it just stops mixing. It does not smoke or heat up at all. All of the different speeds do work.

K5A 30 year old mixer will only operate at lowest five speeds. stays at speed 5 as control is moved upwards to ten. Over the past several years it wouldn't operate at speed 9 or 10, and just recently it gave up speeds 6, 7 and 8. Is it clogged with flour and powdered sugar?

My KitchenAid mixer does not turn off. I'm sure it has something to do with the switch which does not stay in the off position. Who can I get to fix this?
