Customer Questions and Answers for Gear Kit by Whirlpool

The Gear Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool stand mixers. It includes various gears essential for the mixer's drivetrain, which transmits power from the motor to the mixing attachments. These gears are critical for achieving the correct speed and torque necessary for different mixing tasks, from kneading dough to whipping cream. Note: This kit contains the Attachment and Beveled Gears.

Symptoms of a bad Gear Kit include:

• The mixer making grinding or clicking noises during use,
• A noticeable decrease in mixing efficiency or failure to mix at intended speeds,
• The mixer failing to turn on or operate correctly.

Causes of gear kit failure typically involve overloading the mixer beyond its capacity, lack of proper maintenance such as lubrication, or general wear from prolonged use.
