The new plug worked for us for one season, then the plucker crapped out again. Tried replacing the capacitor but so far no luck. We have 36 chickens to process next week and probably going to hand-pluck😩
I loaned mine out… big mistake. The air intake cover itself was full of feathers when it was returned, but I didn’t know until I went to use it weeks later. I cleaned it out, the motor will hum, but not turn. Any ideas how I can repair it? The motor cost as much as a new machine. 😢
bummer, hard to say. wonder if it got all wet and rusted together. maybe try hammer tapping any spinning parts that may have rusted. free turn the drum wheel. just guessing here.
