Thank you for purchasing the Bloemhof BM42 Boule Moulder. We invite you to read the
instructions in order to obtain maximum performance, safety, and satisfaction from this
outstanding unit.
The Bloemhof BM42 Boule Moulder is specifically developed to handle the most difficult dough
with up to 15% protein flour as well as traditional artisan breads. The advanced hand moulding
action produces a superior oven jump and a seamless finish.
Our Boule Moulder eliminates the tedious task of hand moulding of medium to large rounds and
with the infinite control settings, all types of dough can be moulded to your complete satisfaction.
Weight range for this machine is from 7 ounce to 4 pounds and up to 1,000 Boules of 36 oz. can
be made in one hour.
The Bloemhof BM42 Boule Moulder features:
Variable speed cone rotation
Variable speed kneading action
Adjustable stroke settings
Heavy duty motor and drive system
Sanitary construction
It should be noted that this machine controls and works the dough pieces through rotation,
kneading, stroke and a time interval. Separate electronic controls and gear motors have been
incorporated for cone rotation and for cone kneading. Cone stroke can also be quickly varied by
adjusting the stroke adjustment knob. This versatility gives you complete control on how much or
how little you work your dough for consistent quality results.
The FDA approved surfaces are clean, durable and will not absorb oils or dough ingredients. A
full scraper system prevents dough buildup and makes cleaning simple.
The Bloemhof BM42 Boule Moulder will be a welcome addition to your shop, since it was
designed to reduce the labor intensive and tedious moulding operations and produce the finest
quality products.
The instructions are in general because of personal preference with regards to dough
consistency, bread types and most important, formulae.

the tub bottom. The underside of the scraper must be kept clean to prevent foreign
particles from embedding in the plastic scraper and damaging the tub bottom. Clean
with a plastic scraper only do not use a metal scraper or any another sharp
object.
4. TUB
The tub forms the outer moulding surface. Dough loading is on the right side of the
tub exit. Clean the tub daily with a plastic scraper. Clean with a plastic scraper
only do not use a metal scraper or any another sharp object.

d. All 8 knobs should be tightened in sequence. In other words, start at the catch tray end
and work around the cone tightening each knob slightly. Once completed, repeat
procedure starting at the first knob by the catch tray and tighten securely. Do not use a

5. C
ONE KNOBS
There are six cone knobs that hold the cone in position. Before starting the Boule
Moulder, quickly check to make sure all knobs are securely fastened. A knocking
sound may emanate from the machine if the cone knobs are not secure.
6. STROKE CLAMP KNOB
The stroke clamp knob secures the setting of the stroke adjustment. Before starting Boule
Moulder, make sure that this knob, which is located at the very top of the cone, is securely
fastened. Hand tighten only.
7. STROKE ADJUSTMENT WHEEL
The stroke setting is the range the cone will swing from side to side. This setting will
determine how intense the dough piece is being squeezed in-between the tub and
the cone. This setting will be determined by the formulation, weight range and
tightness required of the product being moulded.
To make this adjustment, loosen the stroke clamp knob on the top of the machine,
and adjust the wheel to a higher or lower number. The higher the number, the larger
the stroke and more intense the squeeze in-between the tub and cone.
8. CATCH PLATE
The catch tray is hinged and can be positioned in the loading position by lifting the
catch tray and positioning the holding bar underneath the catch tray. The catch tray
can be positioned in the storage position by lifting the catch tray and lowering the
holding bar.
9. LOCKING CASTERS
The locking casters are provided to stabilize the Boule Moulder during operations.
Place the unit on a level surface then press the black brake mechanism down on all
four casters. NOTE: Before moving the machine to a new location, make sure
all casters are unlocked.
10. FOOT PADS (When supplied)
