Hello, fellow Req -Teqies.

Had my 590 for about a year now and when it was working, it was awesome.

Pretty sure some pellets got wet and created a helluva jam. Gonna tear into it soon, fix it and get back to smoking!

If you don't mind, let us know what you find.
Good luck!
 
Yes, would love to know how they got wet. I have mine on a large covered porch and cover them when not in use. That being said I live in Georgia where the humidity can get up there.
Does anyone take their pellets out or just leave in.
 
I live in Charleston S.C. where the humidity is unbearable at times.

I keep it covered with a Rec Tec cover.

Cleared out all the pellets and as much of the jammed debris as possible. Still a no go.

Gonna have to take the auger out. I can hear it trying to turn but the jam is massive.

I think because of the extreme humidity, I will be removing the pellets after every cook.

Any tutorials on how to get the auger out??
 
Try Youtube. I had to replace the fan on my RT-680 a few years back and a part of that job was removing the auger and found several Youtube vids that walked you through the process. As you can imagine there isn't a lot of room to work but it wasn't a horrible job.
