Tips for Perfect Pasta
• Good pasta dough is firm and leathery
to touch, but also pliable. It should not
stick to your fingers or crumble and fall
apart. Many factors, such as humidity,
brand of flour used, and size of eggs,
ENGLISH
may affect dough consistency. To test
for correct dough consistency, pinch a
small amount of dough together after
mixing with the flat beater. If the dough
stays together without sticking to your
fingers, it should work well. It may be
necessary to add a small amount of
flour or water to reach correct dough
consistency.
• Divide sheets of rolled pasta into halves
or thirds before cutting into fettuccine,
spaghetti, or linguine fini, as they
can become quite long and difficult
to manage.
• Some hand separation may be necessary
when cutting wheat or spinach dough
with the fettuccine or spaghetti cutter.
The small pieces of wheat bran and
spinach are difficult to cut.
WARNING
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not let foods that contain
perishable ingredients such as
eggs, dairy products, and meats
remain unrefrigerated for more
than one hour.
Doing so can result in food
poisoning or sickness.
• Pasta can be cooked just after cutting.
It can also be dried or frozen for future
use. To dry, lay strands of pasta in a
single layer on a towel or drying rack,
and air dry for no more than 1 hour.
Store dried pasta in an airtight container
in the refrigerator. To freeze, let pasta
air dry for no more than 1 hour and
freeze in an airtight container. It is not
necessary to separate strands of pasta
before freezing, just dust with flour and
form into “nests.”

Using the Pasta Sheet Roller
and Pasta Cutters
1. Prepare pasta dough (see “Tips for
Perfect Pasta.”) Cut dough into pieces
3
about
/8" (1 cm) thick. Flatten each
piece slightly.
2. Set adjustment knob on Pasta Sheet
Roller at 1 by pulling the knob straight
out and turning to setting 1. Release
knob, making certain pin on roller
housing engages opening on the back
of the knob, allowing the knob to fit
flush to the roller housing.
O
ENGLISH
4. Move adjustment knob to setting 2.
Feed dough through rollers to further
flatten. Change to setting 3 and
feed dough through rollers again.
Continue to increase roller setting until
desired dough thickness is reached.
See “Suggested Roller Settings” to
determine the correct thickness for
each type of pasta. Do not fold dough
on setting 2 or higher.
3. Turn mixer to Speed 2 or 4. Feed
flattened piece of dough into rollers
to knead. Fold dough in half and roll
again. Repeat folding and kneading
process several times, until dough is
smooth and pliable and covers the
width of the roller. Lightly dust pasta
with flour while rolling and cutting to
aid in drying and separation. Knead
and fold each piece of dough in the
same manner.
5. To make Angel-Hair or thick egg
noodles, exchange Pasta Sheet Roller
for Pasta Cutter attachment. Feed
flattened sheets of dough through
cutter. Cut pasta can be cooked
immediately or frozen or dried for later
use. See “Tips for Perfect Pasta” for
information on freezing and drying.
NOTE: After you finish using your Pasta Sheet
Roller and Pasta Cutter attachments, replace
hub cover and tighten attachment knob.
7
Cleaning the Pasta Sheet Roller
and Pasta Cutters
To clean Pasta Sheet Roller and Pasta Cutter
attachments, let parts air dry for 1 hr and
then remove any dried dough using the
ENGLISH
Cleaning Brush. If dried dough cannot be
removed, try hand-tapping the attachment.
A toothpick can be used if necessary. Do
not use a knife or other sharp object to
remove excess dough. Polish with a soft,
dry cloth and store attachment pieces in a
dry place at room temperature.
Maintenance
Clean properly after use as described above.
We recommend using a light mineral oil to
lubricate the gears periodically. Add a drop
of mineral oil to each of the far corners
of the rollers and/or cutters to lubricate
the gears (4 locations). This can be done
annually or after 50 uses.
NOTE: Do not wash or immerse
attachments in water or other liquid. Do
not wash in dishwasher.
NOTE: Do not run a dish towel or
any other cloth through the rollers to clean
them. Do not insert objects such as knives
or screwdrivers to clean the unit.
