Foot Switch 110V

This foot switch can be used to turn your meat grinder (or other machines) on and off, allowing operator free use of hands. Especially useful when stuffing sausage. Ruggedly constructed for long life with full steel housing, nonskid base pad, and textured traction pad. Comes with 8' cord and 3 prong series-plug, prewired. Just plug it in and go (the plug on the end of the foot switch's cord is inserted into 110 volt wall receptacle, then the meat grinder plug is piggybacked into the footswitch plug. So no wiring is required). Switch is momentary type, meaning that power is supplied to meat grinder cord while pedal is held down and power is cut off when pedal is released. Rated 15 amps maximum. This switch has proven its durability with years of trouble-free service.

Great purchase
By Gerry M., FL on 1/03/2016 Verified Buyer

The T-Bird is exceptionally solid. At 88 pounds of stainless steel and muscle it's a heck of a grinder, chewing up anything and everything I've been able to throw down it's throat.

We haven't had it a long time yet, but no problems to date. It's easy to use, components seem very solid and cleanup is easy.

Even more than we expected
By Don V. in AZ on 2/27/2016 Verified Buyer

This grinder is a beast that hasn't met it's match and I don't expect it to! The only thing better has been Pleasant Hill's service... untouchable.
