Setup und Installation
- Kompatibilitätsprüfung: The Marcato Atlas Drive Motor is compatible with Marcato pasta machines that have small holes on the side where the hand crank would normally attach. This includes models such as the Atlas 150 and Atlas 180.
- Positioning the Pasta Machine: Place your compatible Marcato pasta machine on a stable, flat surface. The motor's design allows the machine to be perfectly balanced without needing to be clamped down, offering flexibility in placement.
- Attaching the Motor:
- Locate the drive shaft on the motor and align it with the corresponding opening on your pasta machine.
- Gently push the motor onto the machine until it snaps securely into place. The two pins on the motor will connect to the machine, allowing the motor to turn the rollers.

Bedienungsanleitung

- AUS: The central position turns the motor off.
- IMPULS: Push and hold the switch to this position for momentary operation. The motor will run only while the switch is held.
