Hobart N50 vintage copper bowl insert not fitting?

January 10, 2013 - 5:52am -- ratatouille

So the N50 finally arrived back from MixedUpJake, after having a full motor rewind and everything... ( long story.. more on that later)

 

and for some reason, the Copper insert bowl i bought off ebay doesn't fit in the bowl.

 

The bowl fits the mixer perfectly.

 

Is there a 'different' bowl this is meant for?  a 5.5 qt bowl???

 

 

sorry, i don't know where else to put this...

Hobart D300 gear problem

December 25, 2012 - 1:42pm -- MNBäcker

Hi all.

Thought I'd throw this out here:

When turning on the mixer (an older 30-qt Hobart), the motor runs fine, but most of the time, first gear runs either very slowly or not at all. When I turn it off, switch it into second gear and then back into first (without turning it on), then switching it back on in first gear, it works fine. Is that a problem with the shifter? How do I get to the shifter - can I reach it from the control panel, or do I have to go through the top?

Any help would be appreciated.

Buying a used 30qt Hobart Mixer

June 4, 2012 - 9:48am -- MNBäcker

I'm looking at getting a 30qt Hobart mixer. I found one on Cragslist here - pics look good; it was manufactured in '83 (which, I guess, is still fine for a Hobart).

I'm planning on driving over an hour on Wednesday to look at it before committing - do you guys have anything in particular I should look for? Other than the obvious, such as giving it a good grab and look for "play" (or more exactly the lack tereof), and to run it in the different speeds?

Does anybody know where I could get a Manual for a 29-year-old mixer?

Thanks in advance,

Stephan
