So my used mp62 charger just came it the mail today. I wasn't taped off and it now has a packing peanut lodged in the blades. Is it easy to take the blades out? Or should I just leave it in there and let the blower crush it?
is it possible to somehow rotate the pulley by hand?

I did rotate it by hand it was kind of sticking when I turned it one way. It seems to be turning fine now by hand. I'm just worried about the pieces of styrofoam being sucked up into my engine. If it does get sucked up will it just burn up no problem?
dont risk it. shake the @!#$ out of the charger and try and get the foam out of it. then contact the seller and request partial refund. i bought a motorcycle fuel tank on ebay and the seller brought the tank to the ups store and they packed it without covering the fuel fill hole and filled the box with peanut foam. by the time i got it , the tank was 1/2 full of foam. i couldnt get it all out. i was given a partial refund.
the engine may burn the foam but its not worth the risk, it could damage the supercharger bladedsor get stuck in a valve runner or worse.
take some compressed ait to either the inlet or the outlet and blow that ish out....not that hard of a solution..
haha that is what i was thinking but I think its like stuck underneath the blades. I'll try that tonight.
It can't be stuck under the blades, they have zero clearence between the case and each other. If you can get More than 1 full rotation then its not possible for there be any peanuts in it.
