Operation
Cut the dough, pushing the dividing handle to the right; when this operation is performed, the blade will be
released: lower the handle further, as far as it will go, to ensure that the dough has been completely cut.
5. To start forming, slightly lower the forming handle. The moulding operation continues as long as the handle
is down. The optimum forming time is established by experience and depends on the consistency of the
dough.
6. When the rounding phase is finished, return the forming handle to neutral position (wait until the forming
plate stops), then raise also the pressure handle and return it to neutral position.
7. Extract the forming plate with the rounded pieces.
USEFUL ADVICE
To obtain a good product, proceed as follows:
• Do NOT put flour on the shaping plate.
• Be sure the dough has the right pre-leavening time.
• Place the dough (the dough must stay inside the plate imprints).
• If the dough is sticky, put flour on the dough.
The following information will help you obtain the best possible results.
The pieces of dough are not the same weight?
• Ensure the piece of dough is positioned at the centre of the plate and is slightly pressed by hand. The
dough must stay inside the plate imprints.
• Be sure the dough has the right pre-leavening time (depending on the dough, but fifteen minutes is
normally enough).
• If the outer pieces are smaller than the inner ones, you need to increase the pressing time.
• If the outer pieces are bigger than the inner ones, you need to decrease the pressing time.
The pieces of dough are not completely shaped or have an irregular surface?
• Increase or decrease the shaping chamber.
• Increase or decrease the rounding time.
• The dough will have a more even shape.
The pieces of dough have not got a smooth surface?
• Increase or decrease the shaping chamber.
• Increase or decrease the rounding time.
• Check the weight of the dough to cut complies with the capacity of the machine.
• You are advised to correctly insert the shaping plate inside the machine because incorrect insertion of the
plate could seriously damage the machine.
• Check the rotation direction of the shaping plate, otherwise the machine will not work. If necessary, invert
two phases of the current socket.
• With a medium consistency dough, the machine can produce pieces of dough varying in weight by 3-4%.
