Tried the “dime test” and still cannot adjust beater down as set screw will not move any further right.
I had this problem too. All the videos say to adjust th screw 1/4 turn to the right to lower the beater until it barely moves a dime 1/2" with each pass of the beater. I figured out if turn screw to the right as instructed, it made the dime test worse. The screw barely turned an 1/8th of a turn and wouldn’t turn any further. So I turned the screw to the LEFT a little at a time… and ta-dah. Dime test passed. :)
My adjustment screw turns to either 3 o’clock or 9 o’clock and neither way makes any movement up or down with my beater. It still won’t come towards the bottom of the bowl. The time doesn’t move!
So I’ve had a bowl clearance issue after accidentally dropping a half cup measure in. I noticed there’s some play in the bracket that holds the “arms” that hold the bowl. I stuffed some paper behind that bracket and it holds it more up, enough to pass the dime test.
