HOW TO ATTACH THE NOODLE CUTTING HEAD
Notice the track on each end of the cutting head. These 2 tracks
interlock with 2 tracks on the dough rolling base unit, notice that
you interlock & slide the tracks together at an angle. Don’t slide
the cutting head on too tight. If the head sticks and is too hard to
remove, tap it lightly from underneath with a wooden object,
taking care not to damage any parts.

GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH YUOR PASTA MACHINES
Using the enclosed clamp, fasten the machin onto the counter’s
edge or table. Fit the handle into the ole on the machine. Notice
that when the handle turns, it passes below the edge of the table.
The machine will have some excess oil from the factory to protect
the machine before it reaches you. Remove the excess oil before
using the machine for the first time as follows:
Wipe all surfaces clean, using only a clean, dry cloth.
Pass a piece of dough through the rollers several times.
Also pass it through both noodle cutters. Let the dough contact the
edges of the rollers & cutters where machine oil can accumulate.
Throw this dough away when finished.
Lightly sprinkle some flour on the rollers & cutters. Use a dry brush

dough into a mound shape and cover with a damp towel.
Important: let the dough rest for at least 10/15 minutes. This allows
the ingredients to further blend together. Cut the dough into slices
that are about 1/4 thick. Always keep that portion of dough that
you are not using under the damp towel so that it does not dry
out.

HOW TO CUT THE FLAT DOUGH SHEETS INTO NOODLES
If your sheet is too long to easily handle, you may first cut it with a
knife. Place the sheets that you are not using on a flat floured sur-
face.
Now remove the hand crank from the roller drive-hole and inset it
into 1 of the 2 cutter drive hole. Turning the handle very slowly, get
the dough strip started between the cutting rollers. Turn the handle
slowly and gently guide the dough strip in the palm of your hand
as you pass the rest of the dough strip through the cutters.

dough strip with a little flour and then fold it in half. If the dough
strips seems too moist, continue this process several times: dust
with flour, fold, and pass through the rollers.
Now set the regulator knob down to position 2 and pass the
dough through. Repeat this process several times until you have
rolled the dough strip down to your desired thickness. In other
words, after position 2 you may step down to, position 3 and then
position 4. Or, you may skip a position and go from 2 to 4. This
repeated process of rolling down the dough strip is actually part
of the final kneading process and is important for making pasta.
Anyway, pasta making is an art and with a little experience you
will soon become expert.
