CONTROLS 

The controls are used to operate of the Sprizza and produce round, formed pizza dough set to the user’s 
desired thickness and diameter.  Once the Sprizza is set to the desired thickness, the operation will control 
the “pressing/rounding” of the dough and adjusting the planarity of the dough.  The planarity is the forming of 
the desired thickness of the edge (crust) of the pizza. 

ON/OFF Switch    – 

The switch controls the power to the unit and begins the upper roller press plate 
operation.  When the switch is on, the upper rolls begin rotating under the top mat. 

Power Indicator     - 

The indicator light is on when power is attached to the Sprizza.  This indicates that
the unit is ready to be switched on and operated. 

Lifting Lever  

-

Raises the dough ball upward to the forming rollers and presses the dough into
shape.

Planarity Adjustment -  This control determines the radial thickness of the dough.  When the unit is all the 

way to the left (to the right on the SPZ50), the dough will have a wider edge (crust). 
When the control is moved to the right (left on the SPZ50), the dough will have no 
edge (crust).  In this position the pizza dough will be flattened to the edge. 

Thickness Adjustment -  This control determines the spacing between the upper and lower mats.  The    

numerical indicators are reference only and do not represent dimensional values 
(inches, cm or mm). 

OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS 

FIRST ROUGH ADJUSTMENT OF THE DESIRED DOUGH THICKNESS 

This operation is to be carried out when the machine is not running or connected to the 
electrical source.  This adjustment should be performed the first time you use the machine to 
determine the level of thickness for the desired dough portions.  When the optimum 
adjustment is reached, it is not necessary to repeat the procedure. 

When the machine is properly connected to the power supply and the rotation is correct, disconnect 
the power and proceed to a first rough adjustment of the desired thickness.  

General rule of thumb, 

at least an ounce of dough per inch (subject to change)

 depending on the softness of the dough
