Using The Pasta Machine - Weston 01-0601-W User Manual

USING THE PASTA MACHINE

NOTE: Only run the Pasta Machine for 15
minutes at a time. This will ensure the motor
does not overheat and remains in good working
condition.
1. Prepare the dough of your choice. Several
recipes are suggested in the "Recipe" section of
this booklet.
NOTE: Avoid using salt in your dough, as this will
damage the machine.
2. Place the Pasta Machine on a flat, dry, stable
surface.
3. Open the Safety Cover. Make sure the Power
Switch is 'O' off. Figures 4 & 5
4. Connect to power source.
5. Close the Safety Cover.
NOTE: The Pasta Machine will not operate
with the Safety Cover opened. It must be closed
before the unit will work.
6. Cut the dough into fist-size pieces.
7. Set the Adjustment Knob to '1'. To do this,
pull the Adjustment Knob out and rotate it until '1'
lines up with the indicator mark on the housing.
Release the Adjustment Knob so it rests against
the housing. '1' setting is the widest setting.

11. Gently push the dough between the Smooth
Rollers, keeping fingers clear of the Smooth
Rollers, until it begins to feed through. The
Smooth Rollers will pull the dough through the
machine. The dough will emerge from the back
side of the Pasta Machine. Place your hand under
the dough as it emerges from the Smooth Rollers
to guide it through the unit. Figure 7

times.
