Operating Instructions

Preparing Dough

Ensure your pasta dough is well-kneaded and rested according to your recipe. The dough should be firm but pliable, not too sticky or too dry.

Rolling Lasagna Sheets

  1. Set the dough thickness adjustment dial to the widest setting (e.g., 3 mm).
  2. Flatten a piece of dough by hand and feed it through the smooth rollers while turning the hand crank.
  3. Fold the dough in half, dust lightly with flour if sticky, and pass it through the rollers again. Repeat this process several times, gradually reducing the thickness setting until you reach your desired lasagna sheet thickness (adjustable from 0.2 mm to 3 mm).

Cutting Tagliatelle and Tagliolini

  1. Once you have rolled your dough to the desired thickness for tagliatelle or tagliolini, feed the pasta sheet through the appropriate cutting rollers.
  2. Turn the hand crank to cut the pasta into uniform strands.
  3. Collect the freshly cut pasta and dust with flour to prevent sticking.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper cleaning ensures the longevity and hygiene of your pasta machine.

  • After each use, remove any remaining dough or flour residues immediately.
  • Use a dry cloth or a soft brush to clean the rollers and cutting mechanisms.
  • Do not use water or abrasive cleaners on the machine, as this can damage the metal components and internal mechanisms.
  • The machine is not dishwasher safe.
  • For stubborn dried dough, allow it to dry completely and then carefully scrape it off with a wooden or plastic tool.
  • Store the machine in a dry place.

Troubleshooting

Dough sticking to rollers:

Ensure dough is properly floured. The dough may be too moist; add a little more flour to the dough mixture.

Uneven pasta sheets:

Ensure dough is evenly flattened before feeding into rollers. Gradually reduce thickness settings, rather than making large jumps.

Machine not stable:

Re-tighten the table clamp. Ensure the surface is flat and sturdy.
