TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING
The machine, pallet-mounted at origin, is shipped enclosed in appropriate packaging and strapped to the
wooden pallet itself. Apart from the machine, you can nd the operating instructions and the conformity
declaration to the EC 89/392 directive. The accessories furnished and the cutting groups must be put inside
the packing case, suitably wrapped and protected. When unloading the machine from the transport vehicle, lift
at the points marked on the packaging using suitable equipment. Unless you need to check the contents, you
are recommended not to open the packaging until the moment of installation. After opening the case, remove
packaging, straps, packaging and polystyrene strips. Dispose of this material according to the regulations
in force. Lift the machine and place on the installation site and take-away the support pallet, using a hoist of
appropriate capacity.
The lifting and positioning of the machine must be carried out by at least two people.
To position the machine denitively or when moving it for cleaning insert the tip of the lever in its proper hole
(Fig.18) fully equipped with wheels; thereafter, pull the lever downwards in order to lift the machine to a forward
position (Fig.19). At this point the machine is ready to be moved and can easily be put in its nal position. Make
sure that the manoeuvring board is horizontal and compact. To move the machine, lean on it in order to push
it, while remembering always to keep the lever pressed downwards and make sure that there are no obstacles
or impediments along the way that may prevent the normal rotation of the wheels. At the end, carefully release
the lifting lever and check that the machine is rmly established on its four foot-supports.

Installation
INSTALLATION, CONNECTION AND SET-UP
Install and use the machine in a room that can be efciently ventilated, and where the oor is smooth and
compact and easy to clean.
WARNING: While the machine is operating, in order to obtain a product with the right thickness
and humidity, avoid air currents which will cause precocious drying of the product together with its
deterioration.
To assure machine stability, make sure that the wheels and feet are well positioned on the oor. Otherwise,
thicken the front feet, by helping yourself with the lifting lever.
WARNING: This thickening operation must be carried out by at least two people.
Position the machine in the desired place with a free back space of around 50 centimeters and a side space of
70-80 centimeters in order to guarantee easy use of the machine and its cleaning (Fig.20). When continuous
loading is foreseen, provide space for the mixer, elevator or manual loading as well. Check that the voltage
of the machine which is written on the identication label matches the one foreseen by the system on your
premises. Attach the right plug to the machine power cable in order to make the electrical connection to the
system.
WARNING: Have the plug tted to the power supply by qualied personnel. Take the necessary
precautions to prevent the cable from being crimped or damaged.
INSTALLING THE CUTTING GROUPS
Both cutting groups must be installed. Unscrew the handwheel (Fig.21 A) with the plastic-moulded washer
(Fig.21 B), set up the group and block it with the handwheel, positioning the washer correctly. Insert the feeding
plug (Fig.22 A and B) to the group in the right machine outlet, note that the feeding tension are various and it is,
therefore, not necessary to modify the plugs (Fig.22).
CONNECTION TO THE WATER SYSTEM
The machine comes equipped with a cooling system of the extrusion sleeve; to connect the machine to the
water system (Fig.23) install the sending tube (Fig.23 B), (when it is non-existant: use a tap, possibly with
screw-control) to the outer part of the machine, in order to regulate the water ow. The exit-ow tube (Fig.23
A) must allow free water discharge. We recommend that the water pressure inside the machine, does not
exceed the 1.0 - 1.5 bar. To connect the external parts, use a exible tube with an inside diameter of 13 mm,
safely xed by a metal band with a screw that can be closed with a screw-driver or key (Fig.24). After inserting
the plug into the electrical socket the machine is ready to be used, after checking that all the elements of the
machine are operating correctly.

Installation
Operation
CONTROL OF THE INSTALLATION
NOTE: Every drive is voluntarily run by the start button
Turn the general switch to position “1” (Fig.25 A) and check the following:
• Make sure that the mixer is rotating counter-clockwise, facing the front of the machine, when the switch
(Fig.26) is placed on the “mix” position , (the Archimedean screw also turns counter-clockwise) (Fig.26
A). In the “0” position all of the machine’s elements should be still; in the drawplate position , the mixer
turns clockwise, the Archimedean screw should turn the same way (check from the cover slits).
• Check the efciency of the double safety device on the cover. The device sets off two micro-switches; one
is controlled by the lever on the cover (Fig.28 A), inside the bar hole; and the other from the cover itself
(Fig.28 B). To verify, check that the internal micro-switch starts to intervene only when the rod has not yet
left the bar itself; you should hear the cover-microswitch click when the cover is loosened 10-15 mm.
• For functioning of push-buttons and ashing lights.
• The knife in its working position should be turning clockwise (Fig.27).
• The correct connection of the water cooling system, should include checking for eventual water leaks
(Fig.24).
If the machine or some of its parts breakdown, call your local authorised dealer or concessionaire for
repairs.
Only after making sure that the machine is completely clean, especially all the parts which are directly in
contact with the product (extrusion sleeve, Archimedean screw, pool, mixer, drawplate, knife, guards, control
system; if it is necessary, use some warm water; see CLEANING) you can carry out the requested operations
in order to have the desired dough.
After having turned the machine off:
• Position the main switch on “0” (Fig.1 A) and check the correct set-up of the Archimedean screw, making
sure that the cylinder part is sustained by the dragging shaft.
• Then make sure that the plastic cap (Fig.2 A) which replaces the drawplate is correctly positioned and the
ring nut (Fig.2 B) is well-screwed on.
• Finally block the mixer in its place, thanks to the head-knob (Fig.2 C).
Lift the pool cover or hopper (Fig.3 B), by pulling the hooking lever (Fig.3 A), and always put in the pre-
established ingredients in the following sequence: our and then, after closing the cap, all the other liquid
elements. In order to obtain the right dough, you need to create the precise ratio between the weight of the
our and the weight of the liquid part; in order to obtain a very good product, the our has to contain a humidity
percentage of no more than 15%; this allows the addition of water equal to 33% or up to
35% of the our’s weight.
If you are using ours with different humidity contents, please change the quantity of the liquid in the opposite

9
Operation
ratio. Moreover, in order to better use the machine, the product inside the pool has to be higher than at a
minimum level which coincides more or less with the position of the mixer axle.
USEFUL ADVICE IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A GOOD DOUGH
Any kind of our can be used (bran or bran our). The dough can be kneaded only with eggs or with a mix
of water and eggs. Water can be partially replaced by spinach or well cut vegetables in order to obtain green
noodles. Because the our’s humidity changes according to the kind used, the environment and the place
where it is stocked, the quantities indicated have to be adapted to the kind of our which is used, lowering or
increasing the quantity of water. The dough is the right one when, at the end of kneading process, it is as big
as coffee beans. If the lumps form in the our you have poured in too much liquid. In this case, before turning
the switch FROM KNEADING (Fig.4 A) TO DRAWING (Fig.4 B) you will have to add some more our and
knead a little longer. If the our does not form a ball and is too oury, add some more water. For the dough for
the sheet of pasta which is to be re-kneaded, use “00” our and add two eggs per kilo of our (maximum). With
these quantities you will obtain a very stretchy dough which is easy to knead.
QUANTITIES IN ORDER TO OBTAIN A GOOD DOUGH
• Supposed weight of an egg: 50 grams.
• If you take 1 egg away you need to add 50 grams of water.
• To obtain a good dough: 1 kg of our + 350 grams of humidity-liquid.
Close the cover or the hopper, position the general switch to “1” (Fig.5 A) and put the selector on position
(Fig.6 A). Push the start button (Fig.6 B). Add the liquid part pouring it gradually but as quickly as possible
through the small hole in the cover. At the end of the kneading operation, which should take around 10
minutes, make sure the product has the right thickness and should look like coffee beans (check through the
small holes of the cover). Turn the machine off by switching the selector to “0” (Fig.6 A).
INSTALLATION OF THE DRAWPLATE AND START-UP OF PRODUCTION
Make sure the machine is switched off.
Withdraw the drawplate and the lter requested from the container lled with water where it was put after
its last use. Thoroughly rinse with plenty of running, warm water, in order to have the piece at the right
temperature (see CLEANING). Dry it with a soft cloth. Unscrew the blocking ring nuts (Fig.7 A) and carefully
clean the internal part including the edging. Take the plastic cap off (Fig.7 B). Set up the lter and the hopper
while taking good care of the Archimedean screw frame at the center of the lter disk and drawplate (Fig.9 A
and B). Close the metal ring with the help of the wrench supplied (Fig.8 A) and check that all the pieces are in
the right places and not axially moved (see correct setting up procedure of the Archimedean screw). In order
to start production, position the selector on the position (Fig.6 A) and push the start button (Fig.6 B). The
initial product coming out of the machine has an unacceptable appearance; this is the reason why it has to be
eliminated. After a short time (a couple of minutes) the product coming out is acceptable, the colour goes from
whitish to yellow and it has a greater consistency.
In order to cut the pasta to the desired length it is necessary to set up the cutting device, made up of motor and
knife, chosen from those available.

10
Operation
CUTTING GROUP
The cutting group is chosen on the basis of the length of the pasta to be cut.
LONG-TYPE PASTA
Use group 1 with knife with alternative movement. Release the xed handwheel (Fig.10 A) and wheel the
group (Fig.10 B) until reaching the edge of the guide slit, the knife (Fig.10 C) must be at about the same height
as the drawplate axle). Block the handwheel in the new position.
NOTE: Make sure that group 2 (Fig.10 D) which controls the rotating knife is in the stop position.
WARNING: The group position is signalled by a safety microswitch which prevents the functioning of
the knife, if the group is not inserted in its correct functioning position.
Position the selector (Fig.11 A) on position 1 and regulate the potentiometer (Fig.11 B) to the number desired,
bearing in mind that the numbers indicate the interval shown in seconds x 2, which pass between one cut and
another.
SHORT-TYPE PASTA
Use group 2 (Fig.12 A) with rotating knife. Make sure that the control group 1 (Fig.12 B) is not in the functioning
position, in order to avoid interference between the two groups. Prepare the group, by simply mounting the
knife (Fig.12 C) on the control shaft (the knife must not be blocked in the shaft) while it is in the stop position.
Position the cutting group (Fig.12 A) after having released the handwheel (Fig.13 A) in front of the drawplate
(Fig.12 D), paying attention that the knife (Fig.12 C) moves axially towards the motor and adheres well to the
drawplate (Fig.12 D). To complete this operation, facilitate the movement of the knife by helping yourself, with
your hands, closing the knife tang between two ngers (Fig.12).
NOTE: This group is also controlled by a micro-switch that does not allow the knife to function in a
different position from the one illustrated above.
NOTE: Remember to position the cutting group protection correctly.
Block the handwheel (Fig.13 A) and the selector on position 2 (Fig.11 A) and regulate the knife speed
according to the desired pasta length, by turning the speed-control knob (Fig.11 D). The speed increases
steadily from 0 to maximum, the numbers go from 0 to 10. If the product is quite wet and tends to be sticky, it is
best to dry the surface in any case, by switching on the fan (Fig.14 A).
COOLING SYSTEM OF THE EXTRUSION SLEEVE
The machine is equipped with a cooling device of the extrusion sleeve that can be on, while bearing in mind
some functioning parameters: Mixture consistency and room temperature. Open the regulating tap before
beginning this operation.
NOTE: If the product is kneaded at an excessive temperature, it tends to change colour and/or blanch
slightly.

11
Operation
Maintenance
The system functions automatically and maintains the same temperature shown on the extrusion sleeve.
FUNCTIONING OF THE DISPLAY CONTROL (FIG.15 C) AND TEMPERATURE SETTING
When the machine is turned on, the display button ashes for a few seconds and, therefore, shows the
momentary temperature on the extrusion sleeve. To see the last temperature selected, press button “SET”
(Fig.15 A) once. If you want to vary the sleeve control temperature, press the button “SET” and at the
same time button “UP” or “DOWN” (Fig.15 B) depending on whether you want to increase or decrease the
controlled temperature, until you see the desired temperature appear on the display unit. Release the pressed
button, the system memorizes the new temperature, even if the machine is turned off. After a few seconds,
the temperature shown on the sleeve will appear on the display unit. The feeler, positioned on the inside of
the extrusion sleeve shows the temperature taken continuously and while comparing its value with the one
dened, controls the opening and closing of the electrovalve which checks the water for cooling.
At the end of this operation:
• Stop the machine by positioning the pushbutton to start KNEADING/DRAWING and the other control
buttons on the “0” position.
• Rotate the cutting group to the stop position (Fig.8).
• Put the selector on the mixture position for 10-15 seconds in order to eliminate the pressure on the
drawplate caused by the product.
• Return the switch to “0”.
• Turn off the machine pressing the general switch (Fig.1 A).
• Disassemble and wash the movable parts and clean the machine (see CLEANING).
• Turn off the water tap.
CLEANING
Warning: For healthy and hygienic processing of food products, be sure to keep your machine and the
surrounding environment clean.
DANGER: Always cut off the power supply before cleaning.
You have to properly clean all the elements which are in contact with the product (Fig.29) protection cover,
pool , mixer, Archimedean screw, drawplate, lter, ring nut and knife, when the product is still soft.
The moving parts have to be disassembled as follows:
• Mixer: make sure the external shovel is in the upper vertical position (Fig.29 A) (only this position allows
the disassembling of the piece). Disassemble the mixer by unscrewing the external movable support until
releasing the mixer; unthread the shaft from its place and at the same time, rotate the external pin towards
the top. If you want to assemble the piece follow these instructions vice versa. Line the central point of the
shaft with the peg of the moving support (Fig.34 A); thereafter, screw the support, but without blocking it.

12
Maintenance
• Metal ring, drawplate and lter: unscrew the metal ring with the appropriate wrench (Fig.30 A) being careful
not to let any pieces fall, since the metal ring is moved from its place, the product and parts still weigh a few
kilos and can easily slip from your hands, causing damage both to people or to the pieces themselves.
• Archimedean screw: after disassembling the ring nut, the drawplate and the lter, the Archimedean screw
can easily be taken off the machine by pushing its spiral from the internal end.
COVER AND POOL CLEANING
Eliminate the dough residue and be sure to thoroughly clean the most remote-access pieces: connections of
the Archimedean screw (Fig.31 B) and mixer (Fig.31 A) movements, extrusion sleeve, pool internal parts and
cover grid. Use some warm water in order to eliminate the residual product and then rinse; dry the surfaces
with the help of blotting paper and disinfectant, with a soft cloth dipped in odourless disinfectant.
WARNING: Never use non-nutritional, abrasive or corrosive chemicals to clean. Also never use coarse
or abrasive objects such as steel wool, abrasive sponges and so on.
To clean the internal and external parts of the machine:
• Remove power supply plug from power mains socket.
• Clean coated surfaces with soft cloth and disinfect with alcohol.
• For the inside parts of the machine, take off the bigger back panel (Fig.33 A) and carry out the cleaning
of the machine, bearing in mind the grease and dust, that are sometimes present; when nished, replace
panel.
CLEANING OF MIXER, ARCHIMEDEAN SCREW, METAL RING, FILTER, DRAWPLATE
AND KNIVES
WARNING: The alternative knife must not be taken apart: remove product left overs with a soft brush.
Eliminate the dough residue and wash the pieces with water; you may use a soft brush or a plastic pallet knife.
These elements can be thoroughly washed in a dishwasher. Rinse and dry the mixer, the Archimedean screw,
the metal ring and the knife and reassemble them on the machine. The drawplate and lter must be kept in a
container placed in water for the entire period in which they are not being used. For reasons of hygiene, please
change the water every day.
WARNING: Clean the surface below the machine daily, if necessary, temporarily move the machine
from its usual working position.
MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: Remember that all maintenance operations are dangerous if you do not rst disconnect the
power supply plug from the power mains.
The machine parts requiring maintenance are the following: the Archimedean screw reducer, the upright push-
bearing support, the movable mixer support, the sliding chains and belts. Disassemble the bigger back panel
(Fig.33 A) upright.

13
Maintenance
MIXER SUPPORT (FIG.34)
Use registered fats for foods (USDA-H1) (in case of requirement contact your local dealer); perform
maintenance daily.
PUSH-BEARING SUPPORT (FIG.35 A) AND CHAIN (FIG.36 A)
Use mineral grease type SAE MR3; maintenance needs to be carried out every six months. When controlling,
grease the chains with as much oil as required.
REDUCER FOR EXTRUSION SHAFT (FIG.37)
Change oil after the rst 500 - 1000 functioning hours, letting the carter oil drain out completely from the cap
(Fig.37 A), afterwards, change the oil every 2000 working hours. To check level, see transparent cap positioned
on the left-hand side of the pan (Fig.37 B). Pour the oil through the oil ller cap (Fig.37 C).
BELT STRETCHING
When performing the above mentioned maintenance or when the machine is not working properly, (loss of
rounds) check the correct stretching of the transmission belt (Fig.36 B). For this reason, disassemble the
left-hand side panel (Fig.36 C) from the machine and make sure that the belt is tight enough. If necessary,
use the regulating system, by moving the motor and therefore, putting tension on the belt, without of course
exaggerating. When nished, reset the panel.
Never use the machine with any missing, disassembled or open guards and shields.
If servicing operations require repairs to the electrical system and/or replacement of bearings or
mechanical components, call an expert technician or your local dealer.
