The thumb screw plastic came off
Open the package with the new screw and it looked like the screw was wider. I tried it to see if it goes in and as long as you screw it straight in, there was no problem.

Beater was peeling and chipped; thumb screw was worn & loose to the point it would fall out
It only involves reinserting the beater . And the thumb-screw was falling out so I cleaned the area and replaced the thumb screw. Very simple and easily done.

The Coating On My Flat Beater Had Chipped; Did Not Think It Was Safe Continue Using.
It was actually not a repair problem; just a replacement of a part. I ordered it one day and the next day the part was here. I have never had such a quick turn around in anything I have ordered. Thank you!!!!

Broken worm gear
Knob fell out of the front of the mixer into the bowl and jammed the beater. This caused the motor to strip the plastic worm gear. Open unit to investigate and found about 4 teeth missing out of the worm gear. Ordered a replacement. Installed the new gear once received in about 30 minutes. Wife is now happy again. Just need to make sure you pack enough gease into the new gear before reassembling the unit.

Fast speed on every setting. No control of speeds.
I removed the cover off the back of the mixer. Carefully remove the cardboard gasket around the outside edge. Unlock the nuts that hold the two adjusting screws. Count the turns to remove each screw in order to keep the right adjustment. Pull the plate away enough to remove the control board. There is one long and one short wire that gets plugged into each side of the plate. Watch the location of each wire to make the right connection. Reattach the screws to the proper position. Then install the gasket and rear cover. Check for proper operation.
