5. OPERATION
5.1. First of all, you should only pour dry ingredients such as flour and herbs into the mixing
container (liquid will not be added until later).
5.2. Place the mixing container lid on the mixing container (see the “Assembly” chapter, steps 10-12).
5.3. Move the round function switch to the MIX (mixing/kneading) position.
5.4. Move the square On/Off switch to the MIX (mixing/kneading)
position to start the kneading process.
5.5. Slowly pour liquid (water, vegetable juice or an egg-water mixture)
through the long slot on the left-hand side of the mixing container lid
to add it to the other ingredients. Make sure that the liquid does not
overflow and mixes evenly with the other ingredients.
5.6. If you have added too much liquid, you may need to add a little bit
of flour through the slots on the right-hand side of the mixing container
lid until the dough has the right consistency.
5.7. Depending on the quantity, the kneading of the dough may take around 5-10 minutes.
Switch off the device by moving the square On/Off switch to the OFF position as soon as the
ingredients have been processed to form a smooth, malleable dough (see also the “Tips for
Optimum Pasta” chapter).
5.8. Allow the dough to rest for approx. 30 minutes.
5.9. Then move the round function switch to the EXT (extruding) position.
5.10. You should then move the square On/Off switch to the EXT (extruding) position in order to
start the process of extruding the pasta dough.
• Make sure that the openings of the respective pasta attachment do not become blocked during
the extrusion of the pasta dough! In this case, use the On/Off switch to switch the device to the
OFF position and then remove the blockage. Never insert objects into the openings of the pasta
attachments while the device is switched on.
• Always move the On/Off switch first to the OFF position before you move the function switch
to EXT or MIX. The function switches must not be switched over while the kneading spiral is
still rotating!
• Always assemble the device in full before you connect it to the mains power.
You will find details about quantities of ingredients following the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the
“Basic Recipe for Pasta Dough” chapter.
