The Dutchess BMIH-18 Manual Dough Divider

The Dutchess BMIH Dough Divider is simple to operate, and very accurate. The removable divider head assemblies can be cleaned daily in minutes, either by hand washing, or by placing into a dish or pan washer. Instructions for removal of the divider assembly are found inside this manual. Removal takes only seconds, and without the need for tools

This Dough Divider will divide a single large piece of dough into either 18 equal pieces, the weight of each piece being determined by the weight of the large piece placed into the pan initially, and the head assembly being utilized..

Dough dividing proceedure:

A simple formula for determining the size of the initial piece of dough is to decide what each piece of dough should weigh. Multiply this weight by 18 then divide by 16 (ounces), and you will have the weight (in pounds) of the initial piece of dough needed to be placed into the pan.

Example:
Each piece needs to weigh 4 ounces.
4 ounces x 18 (pieces) = 72 ounces
72 (ounces) ÷ 16 (ounces) = 4.5 lbs.

In this case the initial piece of dough needed to be placed into the pan is 4.5 Lbs.

Operating Instructions:

Step 1: Place the large dough piece to be divided into a lightly dusted Pan then place the Pan into the Machine. Note: Before placing the Pan into the Machine, press the dough by hand so it completely covers the bottom of the Pan.

Step 2: After placing the Pan into the Machine, pull down on the Handle and exert a firm pressure for 3-4 seconds to uniformly flatten the dough inside the Pan.

Step 3: Slightly relax the pressure on the Operating Handle and push down on the Trip Lever to release the Cutting Knives from the Head Assembly. Next, push the Operating Handle all the way down, and the Knives will cut the dough into evenly divided pieces.

Raise the Operating Handle to the start position, remove the Pan and dump out the divided dough pieces. You are ready to repeat the procedure.

Tip: For sticky dough products, line the bottom of the Pan with a circular piece of parchment paper. The paper can be used repeatedly
