Purchased 2 vintage Sunbeam Mixmaster Model 10 and Model 12. Both run but a strong chemical/burning smell is emitted. Has anyone serviced one of these machines and if so what type of grease / oil did you use. thank you
Is this a good question?

What if a Sunbeam Mixmaster leaks oil from the beaters but runs smooth and sounds great otherwise?

Thanks for having posted this. I ordered one of the Sunbeam Mixmaster manuals for the models MMA, 1-8B, etc. from this website and the manual is incredible.

@terryasks Mixmaster grease is no longer available, but a good grade of high temperature automotive wheel bearing grease will work. Use only the best oil you can find, 'turbine oil' or Slick50™ engine treatment will work well. Great information from here.

We service all vintage Mixmaster models at nelsonezy.com. We use Benalene 930-2 grease, but you can use any amber wheel bearing grease.
