Reply to comment by fondledbydolphins in was handed down my late uncle's 80s stand mixer, still works like a dream by Wavestormed

How should I go about doing this without fucking up the mixer?

There are a surprising number of channels on YouTube that make quality, in-depth tutorials on most models. Give your particular model a quick Google.

Just keep in mind that you should order supplies (lube and any necessary tools prior to opening the machine up).

Also, once you open it - keep in mind it may stay open for a few weeks if you end up needing to order replacement gears / other parts.

I would also point out that if you don't feel comfortable doing the maintenance yourself, which is totally okay, there might be someone near you who services these mixers.
