Suppose your son dropped your drum and it rolled down into a lake. #%&&&&( After that and a few choice words, is there a way to remove the spring loaded feeder assembly so you can get all the crud out. It appears to me to that you must use magic to dismantle it for cleaning behind the spring feeder assembly???? Thanks, Dwight

    Do not attempt to take the spring loaded feeder apart. It is riveted and you would most likely seriously damage it. Instead get some "Gun Scrubber" made by Birchwood Casey and spray vigorously behind the spring cover. Really soak it. It dries very fast and will remove all the gunk without damaging your expensive drum.
