Missing the adjustment screw for the dough hook.

I am trying to use my dough hook but it is scraping the bottom of the bowl, When I look down in the dough hook hole there is no screw.  I cannot find this part on the site anywhere.

  • I just got my mixer. I do have the screw in the dough hook hole. Is it correct to assume the spring beneath the screw?  I just want to make sure it’s not supposed to go somewhere else because I didn‘t see a spring anywhere.  Thanks!

  • Hi Paula, Yes, if the screw is down in the dough hook hole then the spring is also there. Every machine should arrive with the spring/screw in place but sometimes due to the vibration of the ocean freight, these parts can fall out and must be installed by the consumer. But it sounds like your machine is perfect.

  • Hello,

    sorry, but yes, the screw is supposed to be attached in the factory, not loose in the box.

    Thread the spring over the screw and screw it down into the hole at the bottom. Adjust until the hook sits right above the bottom of the bowl without scratching.

  • I just ran the machine the for the first time. No screw was inside the arm hole so I searched on line and learned that it might have fallen out.   I found the spring and screw in the box, luckily.  Maybe a piece of tape over the hole for shipping would help.  I thought this was an upgrade,  lol.

  • Hi David, thank you for your comments and glad you were able to locate the spring and screw for the dough hook hole. Thankfully this issue has been resolved at the factory but we are still working through the thousands of machines that were produced and shipped to the US. Due to ocean freight transit time and inventory rotation with our retailers, we will most likely continue to run into the loose spring/screw issue for several more months.

  • No screw or spring with ours, went through all the packing materials. Can we get a replacement? Or is it something we can go get at the hardware store? The family is coming for Thanksgiving and I was hoping to make bread and rolls while they are here.
