Start by locating the agitator assembly–a critical piece responsible for distributing material evenly. If your machine fails to discharge granules correctly, a worn agitator (typically metal or heavy-duty plastic) is often the culprit. Check for cracks, bent teeth, or excessive wear where it contacts the hopper’s interior. Replacement agitators should match the original’s length and tooth spacing; deviations can lead to uneven coverage or jamming.
