Hi,

Do you know if it is possible to convert Kitchenaid Artisan stand mixer to 240v, has anyone looked inside or know if i should change something.

Does raplacing the fan mean that the fan itself (when broken) can be ordered? So just the white plastic round part. If so, could someone please give me a reference number? Would be highly appreciated.
