Product Information
Full details
The Schneider 5-wheel dough cutter is an essential tool for professional bakers and home enthusiasts who require precise, uniform dough strips for pastries and pastas. Its standout benefit is the expandable frame that allows for consistent spacing, saving significant time during batch preparation. One notable caveat is that its robust stainless steel construction requires careful handling to avoid finger contact with the sharp cutting wheels during adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your cutter, loosen the frame mechanism and slide the wheels to your preferred spacing, then lock the frame tightly to prevent shifting during use. The tool is compatible with most standard pastry and pasta doughs. To ensure longevity, place the cutter in the top rack of your dishwasher after use to remove flour and residue. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers that could dull the blade edges. When stored, keep the unit in a dry place to prevent moisture buildup within the adjustment joints, and consider using a blade guard if storing in a drawer with other utensils.
