and Pasta Cutters

ENGLISH

To clean Pasta Sheet Roller and Pasta Cutter attachments, let parts air dry for 1 hr and then remove any dried dough using the Cleaning Brush. If dried dough cannot be removed, try hand-tapping the attachment. A toothpick can be used if necessary. Do not use a knife or other sharp object to remove excess dough. Polish with a soft, dry cloth and store attachment pieces in a dry place at room temperature.

NOTE: Do not run a dish towel or

any other cloth through the rollers to clean them. Do not insert objects such as knives or screwdrivers to clean the unit.
