This was in a box with a pasta maker, but I'm not sure it has anything to do with making pasta. Or does it? Those grey segmented rollers are rubber and they turn when you turn that handle. Thanks for any help solving this!
Me thinks you are a fire hazard and they are really trying to kill you. I would carry a fire blanket everywhere to reduce your lethalness
Looking at all of the other answers, I will tell you that you best ones are changing the batteries, cleaning the unit and last is an electric impulse. The electric impulse can be from a light fixture using a CFL or fluorescent tubes. These can trigger a smoke or CO2 device. The recommended distance from these fixtures is 3 feet but that does not always solve the problem. Average life on thes devices is 5 years. With all the above you can check for fluorescent interference, check the age ( there is a date code on each unit).
