Spoon stuck in garbage disposal
Hello. Can anyone please give me advice on how to remove my spoon from the garbage disposal? It's a small spoon that has beads wrapped around it with metal wiring and it's stuck to the blade. I think the metal wire might be wrapped around the blade. I'm not 100% sure, but I am to get a good grib of the spoon to pull, but it won't come out.
Please help. Thanks so much! |

If the grinder blade is jammed, use the allen wrench tool to release the spoon. Insert the tool in the socket under the disposal and twist. If it is still jammed, you may be able to insert a pair of long handled pliers down to grab the spoon. If all else fails, drop the disposal and pry the spoon out.

FIRST THING... unplug the disposal... the outlet and plug should be under the sink... rarely are they hard wired to the circuitry... It will most likely be eisiest if you simply drop the disposal by unscrewing the metal holding ring located between the bottom of the sink and the unit itself... once that is done it will give you total accessibility to the blades to un-jam... I say this from experience... it's easy to figure out how to do it... and it gets easier each time... LOLOL

Please help! Our garbage disposal would not turn on, but just made a humming sound. So I took an Allen wrench and inserted it into the hole at the very bottom of the unit and turned the wrench. This freed up the unit... and it would be operational now, but the Allen wrench got stuck in the bottom...
I have a 3/4 PRO garbage disposal. It stopped working due to spoon caught between the blades. My husband was able to remove the spoon. He reset the button but nothing happens.. does this mean the grinder is gone for good? Money is tight nowadays, I hope somebody can tell me what to do.. thanks
I have never had a problem running my garbage disposal before until I replaced it with a bigger and better one. Now my disposal backs up, and when I run the disposal, it backs up into the adjoining sink! Please help! Hi Mom, Sounds like you have a clog in the lateral, (horizontal ) pipe in...
