Troubleshooting
To avoid problems with your Pasta Maker, read all the notes, cautions and instructions in this manual
prior to calling the service department.
Problem Possible cause/solution
Appliance stop while Mixing or extruding If the appliance stops while mixing or extruding,
hold the mixing container against the back wall
until the appliance does not stop anymore. There
is an interlock switch which turns off the motor
should the container or lid not be fitted correctly,
you can solve the problem if stop occurred in the
MIX mode by stopping the appliance, lifting the
Lid and removing any pasta dough stuck under
the Lid, Refit and close the Lid properly and
continue.
Appliance won’t start Be sure it is plugged in, switched on, lid is securely
Latched and mixing container is pushed back
against the wall of the appliance base.
Delay starting Depending on the model there may be a 1
second delay feature. If so, our appliance will
start after one second of switch on.
Slow or no extruding pasta Dough needs to be the correct consistency. Refer
to “How To Use Appliance” section for instruction.
Set the Die in very hot water for a minute prior
to making pasta. You can always correct your
extruded pasta by putting it back into the Mixing
Container and starting over before it dries out.
Can’t remove locking ring
Switch to Mix for a few seconds, This will relieve
pressure on the Locking Ring and Die. Use the
Lock ring Spanner to help unscrew the Locking
Ring.
Appliance noise
Noise equals power, But loud clunks are not
normal, stop and be sure your appliance is
assembled correctly. Also, please clean your
appliance thoroughly.
Friction-steam from the Die Some hot steam escaping from the Pasta Die is
normal during use and is caused by the friction
heat from the pasta being extruded through the
Die. Don’t touch Dies when hot during and after
extruded.

your extrusion chamber . This indicates that the
extrusion chamber is not clean and there may
be excess flour on it, It must be removed from the
locking area, container and extrusion chamber.

appliance , stopping Auger shaft from being
engaged all the way.
