Anybody use the foot switch from Harbor Freight? Is 15 amps heavy enough to run my grinder? Lem Mighty Bite #8. 500/1000 watt peak. Dont want to buy a switch only to overload and burn it up.

Looked at the 1HP Cabelas user manual and their expensive brand of foot petal was 15Amps also, should not be an issue. I'm ordering one also.

The only time I ever really use it is when I am grinding directly into those chub bags.

I love mine for stuffing off the grinder ...if a casing breaks or runs out, I can stop it instantly. No reaching around the back to turn it offLast edited by Smart; 11-16-2018, 10:29 AM.
