Cleaning paddle mixers...the easy way!

[doug boardley]

this is what I use to give mine a quick wash in between mixes

Knocking the hell out of a paddle it then it has vibration which in turn rattles the life out of bearings in the mixing tool..

Never had a mixer with bearing problems and I always tap the adhesive off when dry.

Same here... Had my Dewalt mixer for six years and still works as well now as it did the day I bought it.

I take the whisk of before I tap it with my pin hammer, rinse between mixes.

Word of warning....this happened to me once, over months/years of wear on large Rubi paddle the bottom 'ring' wore through during mixing. It spun out and opened into a massive sharp spike, ripped through the bucket and through side of my boot!! Luckily missed my foot.
I never steady any bucket with my feet anymore!

But surley if it's worn that bad and being used then it needs to be replaced..

 

[Brindle]

agreed, but it was well cleaned etc, had just worn thin near the bottom, something to look out for
