Maintenance Tips

• Clean immediately after use: Disassemble all parts (canister, plunger, funnels, gears) and wash with hot soapy water to prevent meat residue buildup.
• Dry thoroughly after washing: Air-dry all metal parts completely to prevent rust and contamination.
• Lubricate moving parts (food-grade only): Apply H1/H3 food-safe lubricant to shaft, gears, and pressure components before use for smooth operation.
• Inspect seals and piston regularly: Check gasket integrity to maintain pressure and avoid leakage during stuffing.
• Check funnels before each use: Ensure stuffing tubes (13–40 mm) are clean and not blocked or dented.
• Secure to stable surface: Clamp or fix unit firmly to prevent movement during cranking and ensure safe operation.
• Avoid overloading (7 lb capacity max): Prevents gear strain and ensures consistent stuffing performance.
• Store disassembled in dry area: Extends lifespan and reduces corrosion risk between uses.
• Handle gears carefully: Do not force crank; use smooth motion to protect dual-speed steel gear system.
