How do I know if my sandwich is too thick to go through
the machine?
You will feel a resistance and find it difficult to turn the handle.
If this happens, back out the sandwich and remove some layers.
�
My machine looks great, how do I keep it clean?
You can use a microfibre cloth to keep the daily dust off or a
slightly damp cloth to remove any marks.
�
My cutting plate is starting to warp – will this affect its
cutting ability?
No, but the warping is inevitable. There are ways to extend the life
of your cutting plate; flip it over each time you use it and front to
back. Also, if at all possible, don’t always cut in the centre. You will
know it’s time to replace it when it no longer makes clean cuts.
