I just picked up the same mixer and am going to clean it up as well. Not taking it all apart though. That gear has a lot of play and very little wear I think on purpose. 1/2 hp motor is big enough. The original frame has been added on to with longer legs and the wheels. These mixers were supposed to sit in a truck bed so that base frame was much shorter.
Hey thanks for watching my first video of the rebuild! Haven’t had the time to get the rest of it completed, my real jobs keep getting in the way 🙁 but hopefully soon! It’s going to be a great addition to my tool chest!
Why didn't you come WITH a motor cover to keep it dry from the elements

I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the project. I'm still really excited I got one as well to add to my tool collection.
