The handle for raising/lowering the bowl will not lock in place. The bowl drops to the bottom position and doesn't lock there either. How do you fix that?

The flat coated beater has worn off the coating why and how to fix it
Hi ARADAM, you don’t provide the model number or say if you have a ‘tilt-head’ or a ‘bowl-lift' mixer, which would helpful, but you can easily download a PDF version of your Owners Manual from the KA website at: (http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/page/home).
Click on Customer Care>Locate Manuals& Guides> and enter the 6 character model number and select a file listed under Owners Manuals and save that file to your PC. You’ll need to have Adobe Reader to be able to open it. Turn to Page 11 and you will find the instructions for adjusting the mixer head height. I have extracted the instructions below:
Beater to Bowl Clearance
Your mixer is adjusted at the factory so that the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, clearance.
Tilt-Head models
• Unplug mixer.
• Lift motor head.

Mixing blade gets hung up at same spot on each turn
Hi SUSAN. From the symptoms you describe, it sounds like your mixer has a ‘Bowl to Beater Clearance’ issue. That should be pretty simple to fix. But even before we go there, check to make sure your mixing bowl is seating properly in the Bowl Support yolk and ‘snaps’ into place against the Bowl Spring Latch. My wife’s had that happen to her a few times. She thought the bowl was seated tightly, but it wasn’t and she experienced the same problem as you.
If your bowl is seating properly, the next thing to look at is your Beater to Bowl Clearance. The instructions are located in your Owners Instructions manual that came with your mixer. If your lacking one, you can easily download a PDF version of your Owners Manual from the KA website at: (http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/page/home).
Click on Customer Care>Locate Manuals& Guides> and enter the 6 character model number (in your case, use KT2651 )and select the last file listed that appear under Owners Manuals (44): KT2651XWW3.pdf (2974.69 KB) and save that file to your PC. You’ll need to have Adobe Reader to be able to open it. Turn to Page 10 and you will find the instructions for adjusting the mixer head height.
Beater to Bowl Clearance
Your mixer is adjusted at the factory so that the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, clearance.
Beater to Bowl Clearance:
Your Stand Mixer is adjusted at the factory so the flat beater just clears the bottom of the bowl. If, for any reason, the flat beater hits the bottom of the bowl or is too far away from the bowl, you can correct the clearance easily.
1. Unplug Stand Mixer.
2. Place bowl lift handle in down position.
3. Attach flat beater.
1e54f21.jpg

4. Adjust so flat beater just clears bottom surface of bowl when in lifted position by turning screw (A) clockwise to raise the bowl and counterclockwise to lower the bowl. Just a slight turn is all that is required: the screw will not rotate more than 1⁄4 turn (90 degrees) in either direction. (The full range of adjustment is 1⁄2 turn, or 180 degrees.)
5. Place bowl lift handle in up position to check clearance.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 if necessary.

NOTE: When properly adjusted, the flat beater will not strike on the bottom or side of the bowl. If the flat beater or the wire whip is so close that it strikes the bottom of the bowl, coating may wear off the beater or wires on whip may wear.
Good luck and have fun. I hope this helps. Howard, Burke, VA

Can you lengthen the beater by loosing a screw?
Hi, KLOEHR, your beater will not lengthen by losing a screw. However, if you lost your Beater to Bowl Clearance adjustment screw, then it might appear that your beater had ‘grown’ because now the beater may be touching the bottom of your mixing bowl, where previously it had not. Simply said, the beater didn’t grow the mixer head drooped.
