    I'll never cease to be surprised by the life and death emergencies that crop up on here at this time of night.

    You can download a manual from the Kenwood site. It will cost you £1.50 though. The grease should be food grade grease. Kenwood sell that too for £9.99 a tube. You may be able to source something similar locally.
  • thanks for your help i looked at the kenwood website to down load the manual but could not find the manual for my model , could you guide me to to site where you can get the manual for £1.50 many thanks :T

    https://www.kenwoodchefservice.com - this isn't an official Kenwood site, but is very good, it's part of https://www.kenwoodchefrestore.co.uk which is a great source of spares and service items.

    Are you sure it isn't meant to be noisy? I have a recent Kenwood Chef, and it is very noisy.

    Where did you get the mixer? My mum had one, probably 20 years old or more, but my sister snaffled it.

    They're all noisy, even when they were brand new.
