There is probably oil in the cylinder. Remove spark plug drain oil and fuel and get carb cleaner spray in to cylinder wait five mins and empty out. Refill crank case with oil and clean spark plug. Fill gas tank note it might smoke for about 10 to 15 mins as it burns off remaining oil.
i have a belle 110v cement mixer just over a year old.Everytime i use it ,it switches itself off after mixing 2 barrows of concrete but it will run perfectly for hours when empty.(tryed this out on Monday)So therefore it only switches itself off when loaded.
Gets very hot quickly.
Yup, gotta have lubricant. That oil started out as grease. It is food grade grease and most appliance psrts places have it.The motor itself should be oil free. The grease is for the gears.:)
Use food grade grease and you may have to split the motor housing.The grease is for the gearing in the head. At an Appliance parts store That's where to get some. :-)
Leaking of oil in a stand mixer is not necessarily indicative of a large problem.
Kitchenaid stand mixers are overpacked with oil to last the lifetime of the motor. If the motor sits idle for some time (is not used), the oil may begin to drip from the gears and settle. Oil leakage may primarily be seen from around the beater shaft or planetary action.
A stand mixer can lose up to a 1/4 cup of oil before it needs to be serviced.
It is recommended to run the mixer on speed 10 for 2 minutes in order to redistribute oil back into the motor. In order to prevent future occurences, this is recommended to be done every 3 weeks if mixer is not being used.
