7.2 Working with the machine
Qualified persons older than 16 years may only operate the divider rounder.
• Turn the power on
• Adjust volume control bar (Indications shown in
table 1) to the position to the weight of dough
• Place the dough piece in the middle of the
rounding plate and flatten it by hand.
If the dough is very stiff it is usefull to
flatten the dough by a dough roller.
In case of sticky dough it is advisable to
flour the dough and rounding plate lightly.
• Place the plate correct onto the moulding table
(see chapter 5.1)
Inserting the rounding plate improperly
can cause damage to the machine.
The following table gives a rough indication of the correct position of the volume control bar, for the
model up to 2, 3 as well 4 kg (4.4, 6.6 and 8,8 lbs) dough (see chapter 1 “Product information”).
Table 1
Remarks:
The position of this bar determines how far the dividing head jumps back before rounding. In this way the volume of the
rounding chambers can be determined. Therefore this position is related to the weight of the dough piece that should be
divided.
As the correct setting depends on the dough consistency, it is a question of experience.
When the volume of the rounding chambers is too small, the dough pieces will be damaged. When the volume is too big,
they will not be sufficiently rounded.
