FURTHER TO MY MESSAGE ABOUT EXTRACTING AND TYPES
OF EQUIPMENT USED.
I forgot to mention speeds involved.
On the manual, it's up to the operator on how
fast or slow he wants to turn the crank, to prevent
blowouts.
On the motorized, the switch has gradations between
slow and fast. The choice is yours.
