ATTACHING THE PASTA ROLLER AND CUTTERS
Before first use To avoid damage, do not wash or immerse attachments in water or other liquid. Do not wash in dishwasher.
NOTE: These attachments are designed to be used with pasta dough only. To avoid damaging your Pasta Roller, do not cut or roll anything other than pasta.
- Turn Stand Mixer off and unplug.
- For Stand Mixers with a hinged attachment hub cover: Flip up to open.
For Stand Mixers with a removable attachment hub cover: Turn the attachment knob counterclockwise to remove attachment hub cover - Insert attachment shaft housing into the attachment hub, making certain the power shaft fits into the square hub socket. If necessary, rotate the Pasta Roller or Cutter back and forth. The pin on the attachment housing fits into the notch of the hub rim when in the proper position.
- Tighten the Stand Mixer attachment hub knob until the attachment is completely secured to the Stand Mixer.
MAKING PASTA
IMPORTANT: When using the Pasta Roller and Cutters, do not wear ties, scarves, loose clothing or long necklaces; gather long hair with a clasp.
- Prepare pasta dough. Cut dough into sections that fit in the Pasta Roller.
- Pull the Pasta roller adjustment knob straight out and turn to setting 1. Release the knob, making certain the pin on the Pasta roller housing engages the opening on the back of the adjustment knob, allowing the knob to fit flush against the roller housing.
- Turn Stand Mixer to speed 2. Feed flattened dough into rollers to knead. Fold dough in half and roll again. Repeat 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.
- Feed dough through rollers to further flatten the sheet of dough. Change the roller to setting 3, and repeat the rolling process. Continue to increase roller setting until desired thickness is reached. Do not fold the dough during this step.
- To make noodles, exchange the Pasta Roller for the Cutter of your choice. Feed the flattened sheets of dough through the cutter. See the “Roller settings chart” to determine the correct thickness for each type of pasta.
DISASSEMBLING THE PASTA ROLLER AND CUTTERS
- Turn Stand Mixer off and unplug.
- Remove the Pasta Roller or Cutter from the Stand Mixer.
IMPORTANT: After removing the Pasta Roller or Cutter from the Stand Mixer, be sure to clean any dried dough. See “Care and Cleaning” for details.
OPTIONAL: If desired, attach the next Pasta Roller or Cutter, using the directions in the “Attaching the Pasta Roller and Cutters” section.
NOTE: Allow Stand Mixer to rest for at least 1 hour after extruding 2 consecutive pasta dough recipes. - After finishing with the Pasta Roller and Cutters replace the hub cover and tighten the attachment knob on the Stand Mixer.
