Waltons 11# Sausage Stuffer
-
I just bought the Waltons 11 # 2 speed sausage stuffer. Great machine. My old.stuffer would slightly ratchet as you applied forward pressure. I was using yours on the first crank and as I was appling pressure I stopped and let go of the handle. The handle flew back about a 1/2 of a turn and hit me in the hand. Ouch!!!. I have learned since then to back it down a 1/2 of a turn and never let go. I was told from someone who just bought one also that his doesn’t do that? So I am asking you is mine working correctly or is it suppose to ratchet or have something to keep the handle from flying backwards? Please let me know. Thanks. I still love the stuffer.

What were you stuffing? What size horn?
I’ve never had a ratcheting stuffer but on my 11 lb. stuffer I do get some backlash on the 10 mm tube, but not anything I felt uncomfortable with -
I dont have a problem now. It was the first time that I was using it. I was just wondering if it was missing something or is that normal?

Yes, that’s normal. Like Joe Hell said, it’s easy to get used to. I quickly learned to ease off the handle a little, instead of just letting it go abruptly.

If you let the mousetrap slap you only once you’re a fast learner but if you let it get you the second time there’s not much sympathy. Lol. Mine does the same.

Nord how true.

don’t release the pressure until the product stops flowing

I’ve had it happen to me as well but I can always tell when it is going to do it, if something is taking a lot of effort to stuff then I know to back it off easy for a turn or so. You might check to see if you air release valve is functioning properly.
