5. Operation
This manual sausage stuffer is designed for ease of use, featuring a two-speed system and a tiltable barrel for efficient sausage production.
- Load Meat: Tilt the stainless steel barrel and fill it with your prepared meat mixture. The 11LBS/5L capacity allows for making a significant amount of sausage at once.
- Attach Casing: Carefully slide your chosen sausage casing over the selected stuffing tube.
- Adjust Speed: The stuffer offers two adjustable speeds. Use the Fast Speed for quickly raising and lowering the piston when loading or unloading. Switch to Slow Speed for precise and controlled stuffing, ensuring firm and full sausages.
- Stuffing Process: Begin cranking the handle. The piston will press the meat mixture through the stuffing tube into the casing. The double air release valve on the piston helps to evenly expel excess air, reducing air bubbles and preventing casing rupture.
- Minimize Waste: The short elbow design of the discharge outlet helps to reduce meat fillings left in the tube, minimizing waste. A manual piston is also included for this purpose.
