If a spoon or other piece of silverware falls into your garbage disposal and gets wedged between the impellers, you can safely remove it by following strict safety protocols. Callout type="warning" title="Electrical Safety Warning": Unplug the garbage disposal or turn off the main wall circuit breaker immediately before putting any tools near the drain. Never place your bare hands inside the grinding chamber. Use a pair of long-handled kitchen tongs or pliers to grip the spoon and pull it straight up and out. Verification: Insert a hex wrench into the bottom motor socket to ensure the flywheel spins freely without binding.
