700/800 Series Food Waste Disposer 3
RELEASING A JAM
Food Waste Disposers can jam under overload or if unsuitable materials are
placed inside. IMC machines are designed to withstand this and no damage will
normally result as the machine will switch itself off. It is necessary to clear the jam
as follows:
723 Disposer
1. Switch off at the mains isolating switch.
2. Take out any bulk waste in the baffle chamber. Rubber gloves are
recommended
3. Lower the release wrench though the aperture in the baffles and locate
between the hexagonal boss on the centre of the rotor and the vane of the
rotor. Exert pressure in both directions until the jammed material releases.
4. Remove the release wrench
5. Switch on at the mains isolating switch.
6. Press the START button and continue disposal.
725, 726 and 800 Series Disposers
1. Switch off at the mains isolating switch.
2. Remove the baffle by unscrewing the interlock knob and lifting off.
3. Take out any bulk waste in the disposal chamber. Rubber gloves are
recommended. If the item which blocked the disposer is apparent, remove it.
4. Place the hexagon socket of the release wrench over the central hexagonal
boss on the rotor and lever backwards and forwards until the jammed
material releases. Remove the release wrench and pull out the material.
5. Replace the wrench and ensure that the rotor is totally free throughout its full
rotation. Remove the release wrench.
6. Replace the baffle, screwing the interlock knob fully home.
7. Switch on at the mains isolating switch.
8. Press the START button and continue disposal.
