Don\u2019t worry, it\u2019s a common issue that just means your mixer could use a little maintenance. Here\u2019s how to troubleshoot and fix a KitchenAid mixer leaking grease so it stays clean, quiet, and running like new.<\/span>\n\nWe recommend consulting your manufacturer's documentation or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> contact us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with any questions.<\/span><\/em>\r\n\r\n[lwptoc numeration=\"none\"]\r\n<p style=\"font-size:14.5px;margin:14px 0;font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,sans-serif\"><a href=\"#app-safety-notes\">Full safety notes below<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Is My KitchenAid Mixer Leaking Grease?<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inside every KitchenAid stand mixer is a set of gears packed with food-safe grease. This grease lubricates the gears, absorbs heat, and ensures smooth operation. Over time, though, the grease can degrade.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s why you\u2019re seeing leaks:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Age and wear: As the mixer ages, the grease can separate into oil and thick solids. The thin oil may seep out around the planetary hub or drip into your bowl.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heat and overuse: If you run your mixer for long periods or overload it, the gearbox gets hot, which can cause the grease to liquefy and leak.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storage: If your mixer sits unused for months, the grease can separate on its own, especially in warm environments.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools and Supplies You\u2019ll Need<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you start, gather the following:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phillips and flathead screwdrivers.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Needle-nose pliers or a small pick.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/whirlpool-grease-w11200218-ap6800088.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Food-safe grease<\/span><\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plastic scraper or putty knife.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean rags or paper towels.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soft brush (optional).<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1: Safety First<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unplug the mixer from the outlet.
