APD30 and APD40 SERIES PIZZA DOUGH PRESSER
1、Installation
1.1 Remove the protection film , avoid contact with utensils that can damage the surfaces , check
that machine is not damaged. Please contact with the manufacturer if it is damaged.
1.2 The machine must be installed in dry ,adequate ventilation and lighting environment condition.
Position the machine on a flat and firm place ; you can put it on a workbench whose height fits
you(about 700-900 mm) , and leave a space around it of 150 mm for easier usage and cleaning.
1.3 Connect the machine to the electric net by an electric technical personnel. It is suggest that
using copper wires (at least 2.5 mm
2
) for the electric wires. It is important to have a good ground
system and a protection switch (5-10A).
1.4 It is necessary for safety to check the cable carefully and verify it is not damaged before put
the plug to the receptacle. The receptacle must be easily accessible ,must not require any kind of
movement. The cable from the machine to the receptacle must not be pulled tightly , also do not
rest the machine on the cable.
Note : The machine has been installed and tested by technical personal before leaving the factory ,
and it is a qualified production. It is not allowed to disassemble or modify the machine without the
permission of the manufacturer , or we do not pay if any loss.
2、Operation
2.1 The machine has the following control devices on the front panel:
A--Red button to stop the machine
B--Green button to start the machine
2.2 Functional test
After having plugged the feeding cable in the electric net , the machine is ready for the functional
test. To start:press the green button , the machine starts working. To stop:press the red button , the
machine will stop working.Start the machine without loading , let it run for one minute and make
sure it is functioning perfectly.
2.3 Before every work-cycle , always make sure the machine is perfectly clean , in particular those
surfaces that get in touch with the dough. If necessary clean the machine.
Warning:Take sundries and hands away from the rollers before turn on the machine!
2.4 Operation for the shaping of round disks
2.4.1 After turning on the machine , you can put the small dough(20-500g) which have ferment
previously (at least 4 to 6 hours) , squash the sides slightly and put some dry flouron it so it can
easily go through the upper rollers. (Pict.1)
2.4.2 When the dough comes out from the upper roller , you will see thin dough,with an oval
shape.You can turn the dough to 90ºplace by hand rapidly , and ready for the next trial to through
the lowest rollers.Out of these rollers it will have a disk shape , this shape is not perfect so it needs
the finishing touches by hand. Pict.2
2.5 Usage for the shaping of rectangles , squares , and others.
The methods are the same as the point 2.4 . If you want to obtain different shaping dough , you
can cut the dough to the approximate shape , for example squares , rectangle etc. with a knife or a
special tool , before introducing the small dough in opening of the highest cover. Then introduce
the dough in opening of the highest cover and let it through the roller. You can choose it as
following: A)let the dough only through the highest rollers. B)let the dough through both the
highest rollers and the lowest rollers. C)let the dough through the highest roller , then turn the
dough 90ºplace by hand rapidly , and let it through the lowest rollers.
2.6 How to regulate the thickness
Regulating the machine can only be recommended as there are different characteristics of : the
dough , the weight , the thickness , the size and the shape of the disk. Therefore the correct
regulating of the machine must be made by experience. The machine is provided with a medium
size regulation for the shapes of pizza. To obtain different thickness of dough , you may regulate
as following : A) Turn off the machine.
B) Regulate the width between the highest rollers. Pull the black knot in order to release the lever ,
and then turn the lever to a proper position. Clockwise is to reduce the thickness , anti-clockwise is
to increase the thickness. (Pict.3)
EX : the width between the upper rollers is twice to the one between the lower rollers.
