Hello bakers!
Someone can tell you to lubricate the stirrer shaft
or not. And if necessary, with what?
The shaft started to rotate very hard!

If the instructions say to lubricate, then it is necessary, if not, then to the service. The mixer unit, if I'm not mistaken, is difficult to disassemble at home!

I lubricated with liquid silicone grease.
A few months ago.
Works.

: oA more details? Is it food grade grease? What's on the label and where is it sold? Can I see a photo?

(Said "A", say "B")
what is it for?

The grease is not food grade.
To be honest, I have never seen food technical lubricants (natural vegetable and animal fats do not count: as a lubricant, they have a number of disadvantages).
Bought on the technical market. Transparent pharmacy bottle with a rubber stopper. Most likely, the packaging is local. Different viscosity options for lubrication were sold, up to grease. The price was approximately 5 UAH per bottle. I used the most liquid one.
I can take a photo, but I don't think it will add any important information.

Here's another similar topic:

Yes, so that there is no ambiguity: he lubricated the shaft not from the inside of the bucket, but from the outside; it took literally a couple of drops.

This is to the fact that the information was not enough, is now becoming clear. Could you write how the bucket is disassembled? Although I have a different model of the stove, I think the designs should not be different.
On my bucket, on the underside, the "butterfly" that turns the blade shaft is fixed with a spring washer. Along the way, you need to remove it, then remove the "butterfly" and then access to the shaft will open? And from the inside, from the bucket, you can't do the same? I haven't tormented the bucket yet, but if I have to, I would like to do it in preparation. Sometimes after baking, the shaft turns tight, so this question interests me.

It is better to use special grease for high temperatures https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=2789.0

Yes exactly. After removing the spring washer, remove the "butterfly".
But as for the disassembly, the process is described in detail on the first page by the link that I indicated in the previous post.

Interesting topic, I think yes, silicone grease can help here ...
However, there is one more consideration.
Once I had a chance to lubricate the chain that rotates the cradles in baking ovens, we used the Molykote D 321 R antifriction coating, it hardened quite quickly and was well suited for metal + metal materials, withstood heavy loads and hot temperatures.

Actually, I am thinking whether it can be useful for the shaft too ... However, even if not, there will certainly be something suitable in Molykote products.

I have an LG stove. After 2.5 years of almost daily baking, the stirrer shaft suddenly stopped turning. Poured water into a mold and left for several hours. The result is zero, just a little easier to turn the shaft by hand. Then he poured hot water into the mold and literally a few minutes later the shaft was released and it began to rotate like new. I don't know for how long, but I hope that if after each baking, or at least every other time, the mold is washed from carbon deposits, then there will be no problems.

In vain hopes! After the next bake, the shaft is tightly jammed!

Friends! I tried to give literally a teaspoon of sunflower oil to the mixer shaft before each batch and there were no problems.

The agitator shaft is the most vulnerable part of the stove. The sealing shaft seal is afraid of abrasives, sugar, salt and ages in a year or two. Fluid flows under the gland and the assembly collapses quickly. Prevention-cleanliness. Immediately after baking, wash with a toothbrush, pull slightly towards you and turn. Dry adhered never turn. Before baking, always put a tablespoon of vegetable oil on the stirrer shaft. Service life 1-2 years when working every other day. Lubrication. Top of the bucket. Silicone grease is thick as light sour cream. Draw 1 ml of half a syringe into a syringe. With a toothpick, move the rubber seal away from the shaft and inject all the grease into the hole with a syringe. Wipe off excess. Bottom of the bucket. Remove the washer and rotator disc. Shaking the shaft to the sides and up to drip any non-liquid grease from their auto boxes. Leave on for 2-3 hours with oil drops. All the lubricants are below and will never reach the bread before the node is destroyed. If there is a backlash wobble of the shaft, repair or replace the bucket. The best stoves are where the shaft is mounted on a width bearing and closed with an oil seal. Works up to 5 years.

Hello everyone, I didn't figure out about PMS-200 silicone oil, it can be used in contact with food, I wanted to lubricate both shafts, they have different tubes and volumes, some of them say they are not suitable for use with food, I read the topic about bucket repair, there is a volume of 20 ml pms-200 advised, is it okay? 🔗 Nowhere is it written what can be used in contact with food
sazalexter
wingio In addition to silicone or Teflon, nothing will fit there, alas, we smear with what is available, it is generally harmful to live ...
