KW714760 Genuine Kenwood Drive Shaft, Replacement Motor Drive Shaft for Kenwood Kitchen Appliances

Kenwood part KW714760 is a genuine drive shaft for Kenwood kitchen appliances. A drive shaft carries the motor's turning force through to the bowl, blade or attachment, so when it wears or snaps the appliance hums away without doing any work. We don't have a model list for KW714760, so look up the parts list for your Kenwood using the model number on its base, or match the number on the old shaft.

Kenwood motor running but nothing turning

Drive shafts take a lot of strain, especially when an appliance is loaded with stiff dough or a heavy mix. Over time the splines or flats that grip the attachment round off, the shaft cracks, or a plastic coupling strips. Telltale signs are a motor that sounds normal while the tool barely moves, grinding or clicking under load, an attachment that wobbles, or a shaft that turns freely by hand without engaging. Replacing the shaft before the part it mates with is damaged keeps the repair simple.

Fitting the drive shaft

Unplug the appliance before you start. Compare the new shaft with the old one end to end, checking the length, the shape of each end and any washers or clips. Note how the old shaft comes out, as some are held by a clip, screw or bayonet fitting. Fit the new shaft the same way, then run the appliance empty before using it with food.
