TUFF GUT FOOD GRINDER
The Tuff Gut’s revolutionary external-motor design surpasses all electric-drive food disposal units, by putting its drive motor on the side and out from under the grind chamber. This eliminates expensive motor
burn-outs due to water damage, which has been a major problem with other brands of food grinders. The
Tuff Gut food grinder uses a standard TEFC motor, and has continually proven it is THE TOUGHEST YOU
CAN BUY.
