Customer Questions and Answers for 1/2Hp Continuous Feed Disposer-Noncorded by Ge

Hello Ken, Most disposals have a hex headed tool that comes with it when new. There is a hex fitting in the center of the unit on the bottom. It is actually the end of the motor shaft. This should never be tampered with while power is available to the disposer. If the motor starts spinning with the wrench in place it can seriously injure you or anyone in the room. This is used to turn the motor and blade assembly and is commonly used to remove silverware, bones, etc., from the blade assembly.
