2. CLEARANCES:
3. SET UP: The oven must be installed in a well-ventilated area.
Your oven is packed standing on its back. Leave it on its back while unpacking. The skid may be left under the
oven for convenience in further handling. Unpack carefully to avoid damage to the oven. If concealed damage is
found, follow the instructions detailed in Section 1.
Keep the area around the oven free and clear of combustible materials. Do not store any materials on top of or
under any oven. The provision of an adequate air supply to your oven for ventilation and proper gas combustion is
essential. As a minimum, observe the clearances detailed in Section 2. Provide adequate ventilation and make up
air in accordance with local codes.
Fit the flue diverter supplied (See fig.1) into the hole located at top near the left rear of the oven and secure with
screws for installing the oven under a ventilation hood. For Direct Venting, Optional Draft Hood (Fig. 2) must be
placed into the hole. Direct Venting not available for European Community Countries. Local inspectors and
ventilation specialists should be consulted to make sure that the installation of the hood conforms to the local
codes and requirements (See fig. 3). In UK ventilation requirements as detailed in BS 5440 should be followed.

Access to the bottom front door and left side control panel is required
for day to day operation of the oven and for servicing. Make sure that
these areas are kept unobstructed for easy access.
A. ASSEMBLING THE STAND:
Legs are shipped in a separate carton complete with mounting bolts.
a) Bolt four legs to the four of the stand using the supplied 3/8-16
x ¾ bolts, flat washers, and lock washers. (See fig. 4).
b) Bolt side braces and rear brace to legs using supplied 3/8-16 x
¾ bolts, lock washer, and flat washer. (See fig. 5).
c) Using proper lifting equipment, lower the oven from its back to
its bottom. Lift the unit and set on stand. (See fig.6).
d) Move the oven to its final location keeping the minimum clearances from the back of the oven to the wall.
This clearance is necessary for safe operation and to provide proper air-flow to the burner chamber.
B. INSTALLATION WITH CASTERS (OPTIONAL):
Four Casters (two with wheel brakes) and the mounting hardware is packed and included in the shipment if
ordered. Install casters with wheel brakes on the front of the unit. Stands with casters have a front
brace as well as a rear brace.
NOTE: Installation should be made with a connector that complies with the latest edition of the Standard for
Connectors for Movable Gas Appliances ANSI Z21.69 in the USA (CAN CGA-6.16 in Canada) and a quick
disconnect device that complies with the latest edition of the Standard for Quick Disconnect Devices for use with
gas fuel ANSI Z21.41 in the USA (CAN CGA 1-6.9 in Canada) and adequate means must be provided to limit the
movement of the appliance without depending on the connector and any quick disconnect device or its associated
piping.
The restraint should be attached to the rear legs of the oven on which casters are mounted. lf disconnection of the
restraint is necessary to move the oven for servicing needs; the restraint should be reconnected after the
appliance has been returned to its originally installed position.
4. PIZZA DECK:
(a) Remove all packing material, samples, shims, etc. from the baking chamber leaving the two metal hearth
liner sheets on the baking chamber floor. Make sure that the two metal hearth liner sheets cover the entire
bottom of the chamber.

material is heavy, and fragile, and should be handled carefully.
