NOTE: The Smooth Rollers complete the
kneading process. As you continue to pass
the dough through the Smooth Rollers, it will
become smooth, shiny and elastic. If it sticks to
the Smooth Rollers, dust the dough with flour
and repeat step 10.
If the dough seems to be too dry put it back into
a bowl or on a pastry board, and add several
drops of water. Knead the dough a few times by
hand to distribute the moisture evenly. Be sure
to turn the Pasta Machine to "O" off when not in
use.
13. Once you have passed the dough through
the Smooth Rollers 2-3 times at the widest
setting '1', turn off the Pasta Machine. Adjust
the knob to setting '2' and pass the dough
through the Smooth Rollers again. Continue
adjusting to higher settings and pass the
dough through the Smooth Rollers until it is
about 1/16" (1.6 cm) thick sheets.
NOTE: The settings may vary according to
the kind of dough, stiffness of the dough, and
the temperature and humidity in the room.
14. With the dough to its desired thickness,
turn the Pasta Machine to 'O' off.
15. Determine which type of pasta you are
making, a Spaghetti or Fettuccini. Place one
Sliding Safety Guard over the Smooth Rollers
and the other over the Cutter that will not be in
use. Figure 8
16. Turn the Power Switch to 'II' slow. Feed
the dough between the Cutter until it begins to
feed through. The Cutter 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 Cutter to guide it through the unit. Figure 9
17. Hang the pasta on a drying rack or lay it
flat on a pastry board. The pasta will dry faster
if it is spread out. Figure 10
18. Follow the recipe for cooking once the
pasta has dried.
