PASTADRIVE MOTOR
Pastadrive is the motor for Atlas 150 that helps you prepare home-made pasta. The bayonet fitting guarantees quick and simplified coupling of the motor and allows the machine to be used on any flat surface without being clamped down.
Pastadrive has an ergonomic shape that facilitates grip and is robust and sturdy, thereby guaranteeing perfect stability during use.
A functional and practical accessory that keeps home-made food tasting genuine.
Health
Atlas 150 exclusively uses rollers made of anodised aluminium alloy and combs and scrapers made of polymeric resin. These materials guarantee the absence of metal dust particles, which are harmful to health.
Functionality
The easy-to-grip crank makes it easier to knead, and the adjustment knob with 10 clear positions ensures immediate pasta thickness selection.
Stability
Atlas 150 is stable and sturdy thanks to its easy-to-fix clamp and rubber screwed feet, thus reducing work time and ensuring excellent results right from the start.
Cleaning
The surfaces of Atlas 150 can easily be cleaned with a cloth and maintenance is simplified by the presence of removable polymeric resin combs. Atlas 150 is not dishwasher safe!
Flavour enhancement
The anodised aluminium rollers feature an imperceptibly rough surface. The pasta comes out porous and binds more easily with the condiments used.
Versatility
In addition to the accessory provided for fettuccine and tagliolini, there are 13 extra accessories available for just as many different types of pasta.

Pasta dough
INGREDIENTS:
- 250g soft-wheat “00” flour
- 250g durum wheat flour (semolina)
- 5 whole eggs and water up to a total of 250g
Pour the flour into a bowl, then the eggs and water in the middle.
Beat the eggs and water with a fork and mix thoroughly with the flour. Do not add salt!
Knead the dough with your hands until it is completely smooth and consistent. If the dough is too dry, add some water; if it is too sticky, add some flour. Perfect dough should never stick to your fingers.
Remove the dough from the bowl and place it on a table, lightly dusted with flour.
If necessary, continue kneading the dough by hand and break it up into little pieces.
How to prepare pasta sheets with Atlas 150
Set the adjustment knob of the machine to number 0, so that the two smooth rollers are fully open. Feed a ball of dough through the rollers and turn the crank clockwise.
Lightly dust both sides of the pasta sheet with flour and fold it in half. Feed the pasta sheet through the smooth rollers again, for 5-6 times until the pasta sheet is long and regular in shape.
Cut the pasta sheet in two and dust each piece lightly with flour on both sides.
Set the adjustment knob to 1 and pass the pasta sheet through just once; then, set the adjustment knob to 2 and pass the pasta sheet through once more; then, set the adjustment knob to 3, and so on until you reach the desired thickness (the recommended thickness setting is no. 6 for fettuccine and no. 7 for tagliolini).
Cut the pasta sheet crosswise into pieces about 25cm long and dust them lightly with flour again.
How to cut fettuccine or tagliolini
Insert the crank into one of the holes in the cutting rollers and, as you turn it, feed in the pasta sheet to obtain the intended type of pasta. Pick up the pasta with the special stick and transfer it to the Tacapasta.
The pasta dries in about 5-6 hours, depending on the temperature and humidity and can then be stored in suitable kitchen containers.
Tips
- Mix soft-wheat and durum wheat flour for tastier pasta;
- do not use cold eggs straight out of the refrigerator;
- clean the rollers of the machine by feeding a little dough between them;
- preserve the home-made dried pasta for no more than 1 month;
- you can freeze freshly cut pasta, but always consume it within 1 month;
- Do not add salt to home-made pasta dough. In Italy we add salt to the boiling water!
Care and maintenance
Only a few precautions are required for Atlas 150 to last a long time.
Never wash the machine with water or in the dishwasher!
Use a brush and a wooden stick to clean the machine after use. To ensure thorough cleaning, the roller combs can be removed:
- push the comb-holder sideways (round part made of steel);
- lift the comb-holder on one side and take it out of its seat;
- stick one end of the comb-holder in the hole of the anti-friction resin comb;
- lift the steel rod and extract the comb from its seat;
- reassemble the combs by repeating the steps described above in reverse order.
Remove the cutting part of the machine by lifting it with your hands, making it slide in the special guides. Assemble the accessories on the machine by repeating this operation in reverse order. If necessary, lubricate the ends of the cutting rollers with Vaseline oil.
