A machine for dispensing curds into cheese moulds, characterised in that the fairing (5), which carries the perforated tubes or drainage columns (6), is assembled on the bedplate (1) of the machine with the possibility of vertical displacement and lateral tilting, with the peculiarity that the perforated tubes (6) are removable, for the changing of the same, via the lower end of the fairing (5), after the raising and lateral tilting of the same. The fairing, which is susceptible to be tilted through an angle comprised of between 30° and 90°, features lateral coaxial shafts (8) which may slide along vertical guides (9) on the bedplate (1), being drawn by respective cylinders (10) established between the bedplate (1) and the aforementioned shafts (8). A cog wheel (12) is keyed into at least one of the shafts; this cog wheel turns together with said shaft and locks into a rack (13) installed on the bedplate (1) by means of an auxiliary support (14) in such a way that the upward/downward movement caused by the cylinders (10) to the fairing (5) causes simultaneously a lateral tilting movement of the same, its lower end being made to project outwards, in a position of direct accessibility to the perforated tubes (6) which are arranged in its interior.
