PASTA MACHINE ASSEMBLY
Before using the Pasta Machine, clean all parts as outlined in the “Cleaning Instructions”
in this booklet.
1. Insert the metal hexagon end of the Auger Housing into the opening of the Pasta
Machine Body and into the metal hexagon opening inside the back of the Body (figure F).
2. Insert the “+” end of the
Auger inside of the Auger Housing. Align the “+” of the
Auger with the “+” inside the Auger Housing. Make sure the Auger is fully seated
inside the Auger Housing.
3. Align the Auger Lock up with the channels inside the Body, on each side of the
Auger Housing. Slide the Auger Lock into the channels, locking the Auger Housing
into place.
4. Place the Pasta Disc of choice, metal side facing outwards, into the Front Ring
Nut. There are 4 tabs on the Pasta Disc the need to align with 4 notches on the Auger
Housing. NOTE: Each Pasta Disc is made of two pieces. Be sure the plastic portion
is lined up with the metal portion of the Pasta Disc.
5. By turning the Front Ring Nut in a clockwise direction, screw the Front Ring Nut
onto the Auger Housing. Make sure the Front Ring Nut is snug, but do not overtighten.
NEVER use the Ring Nut Wrench to tighten the Front Ring Nut, damage to the
machine may occur.
6. Optional: Place the unused Pasta Discs into the Disc Rack and place into the
brackets on the top of the Auger Housing (figure G).
7. Align the funnel hole in the Pasta Lid with the
opening on the Auger Housing. Gently snap the
Pasta Lid onto the Pasta Machine Body (figure I).
8. Insert the end of the
Handle into the “Slow”
(for pasta making) (“Fast” (for mixing dough)) drive
on the back of the Body (figure H).

MAKING PASTA
1. Turn the Handle clockwise while feeding
a piece of dough through the Pasta Lid and
into the Auger.
2. At a consistent pace, keep turning the
Handle.
3. The pasta will begin to
extrude out of the Pasta Disc.
Once the pasta reaches the
desired length, cut the pasta off of the Pasta
Disc using the Cutter Spatula (figure L).
4. Repeat this process for the remaining
dough.
5. Lay the cut pasta on a cheesecloth or
non-stick surface and let it dry for about an
hour.
If making pasta to store, extra drying time
is needed.
