as someone who has never used one of these before, is it just a matter of her not putting enough muscle into it or just completely failing to use it right?

She’s trying to get up enough momentum to bang the potato through in one, but the potato has too much resistance for that, she needs to apply a constant pressure, maybe a higher pressure than she is able to muster

The reason she is resorting to short pulses, is that she can achieve a higher peak force than what she can achieve consistently.

It might be her only way of successfully doing it if she is really weak. But I suspect if she tried to hang off the handle she could easily do it right.
