period of approx. 2 hours should be maintained so that the motor can cool down. A
motor that is too warm can negatively affect the pasta making and the pasta itself.

When you want to use the flat pasta mould (no. 99) for making dough sheets: make
sure that the small pin for dividing the dough sheet is pointing upwards in the out-
let opening. This will make opening the dough sleeve easier. With the adjustable
flat pasta mould, you will get a thicker dough sheet by tightening the screw and a
thinner dough sheet by loosening the screw.
