Setup

To set up your Reginette Single Cutter Attachment:

1. Ensure your Imperia pasta machine is securely mounted to a stable work surface.
2. Locate the accessory slot on your pasta machine.
3. Carefully insert the Reginette Single Cutter Attachment into the slot, ensuring it is firmly seated.
4. Attach the handle to the designated opening on the cutter attachment.

Operating Instructions

Follow these steps to make reginette pasta:

1. Prepare your pasta dough according to your recipe and flatten it into sheets using the main pasta machine rollers. Ensure the dough sheets are of appropriate thickness for cutting.
2. Lightly dust the dough sheet with flour to prevent sticking.
3. Feed one end of the dough sheet into the opening of the Reginette Single Cutter Attachment.
4. Turn the handle slowly and steadily to guide the dough through the cutting rollers. The attachment will cut the dough into 12 mm wide reginette strips.
5. Collect the cut pasta and place it on a pasta drying rack or a lightly floured surface to prevent sticking before cooking.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your attachment.

• Cleaning: After each use, allow any residual dough to dry on the rollers. Use a stiff brush or a wooden skewer to remove dried dough and flour from the cutting rollers and crevices. Do not use water or wet cloths, as this can cause rust.
• Dishwasher Safety: This attachment is not dishwasher safe. Washing with water or in a dishwasher will damage the carbon steel components and lead to rust.
• Storage: Store the attachment in a dry place, away from moisture, to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Reginette Single Cutter Attachment, consider the following:

• Dough sticking to rollers: Ensure the dough is properly floured and not too sticky or wet. Adjust the flour content or allow the dough to rest longer.
• Uneven cutting: Verify that the dough sheet is fed evenly into the attachment and that the handle is turned at a consistent speed.
• Attachment not fitting securely: Double-check that the attachment is fully inserted into the main pasta machine's slot and that no obstructions are present.
