Hi Juliet, I'm trying to source the manual from Kenwood. If you provide me with your e-mail address I can pass it on to you, Fixya doesn't seem to have the facility to attach documents to solutions.
Hi REINO66,
I suspect you (speed) Control Plate Assembly has gone bad and needs to be
replaced. The good news
is that this can be fixed quite easily (OK, maybe with a little effort) by
yourself if you are a DITY type person, feel adventurous, and your mixer is not under warranty.However, before you start to disassemble your
mixer, be sure you have the Parts List manual on hand.If you're lacking one, you can download a PDF
version from the KA website: http://www.kitchenaid.com/flash.cmd?/#/page/home.
Click
on Customer Care>Locate Manuals &
Guides> Enter the 6 character model number, in your case use K45SSW, and
select the file listed under Parts List
(1), K45SSWH0.pdf (341.41 KB).Check
to ensure it matches your mixer model. Turn
to pages 6 & 7, titled: Motor And Control Parts, which provides an exploded
view for the disassembly and reassembly of your mixer’s electrical components,
along with all the parts.Find Illus. No.
25, Control Plate Assembly, Part No. 240904-2, which is the part that needs to
be replaced. As
far as parts go, here are four potential vendors in no particular order:
RepairClinic.com; mendingshed.com; searspartsdirect.com; partstore.com.Prices for the same part can vary widely
between vendors, so do your comparison shopping. Here
are some links to several excellent websites that detail the
disassembling/reassembly of a KA Mixer.
Between
these three websites and their excellent pictures and descriptions and your
Parts List manual, you should now be able replace your Control Plate Assembly. Good luck and have
fun. I hope this helps. Howard, Burke,
VA

if you r using it for dough use the roller and scraper it works much better. But if u want to use the dough hook the holes in the middle is where the knob and stick in the arm go into to hold the hook inplace and it also goes in the hole on the side near the scraper hope this helps
I just found my old invoice where I had sent my DLX to be repaired a few years ago. (I had not put in enough moisture and it walked off the (rickety) table I had set it on...)
I need to send it back again and hence my search for the info. The gentleman I sent it to was Mordechai Roth at Magic Mill Corp in Monsey, NY (10952) This occurred back in 2000, I can't believe I saved the receipt...
Phone number is 914-368-2532 (If it's still good) I am calling tomorrow to see about sending mine in... Hope you find yours...
