Remove the rear panel from the upper oven. Install the two-piece stacking common flue (Fig. 3) with
the four screws provided. Replace the upper oven's rear panel.
Connect the piping between the upper and lower oven. Pipe compound must be resistant to the action
of propane gases. The manual gas valve, located behind the small door in the lower front panel, should
remain off until all electrical and gas connections are made and the ovens are ready to be used.
LEVELING
Make sure that the oven racks are level in the final installed position. If the oven is installed on legs,
turn the adjustable feet in or out to level the oven front-to-back and side-to-side. If the oven is installed
on casters, loosen set screws and turn casters in or out to level the oven front-to-back and side-to-side.
Retighten set screws after leveling.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE
APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE AND/OR OTHER LOCAL
ELECTRICAL CODES.
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE
DISCONNECT SWITCH TO INDICATE THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE CIRCUIT.
WARNING: APPLIANCES EQUIPPED WITH FLEXIBLE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY CORD ARE
PROVIDED WITH A THREE-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG. THIS PLUG MUST BE CONNECTED TO
A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RECEPTACLE. IF THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT THE
PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN. DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING
PRONG FROM THE PLUG.
A wiring diagram is located on the inside of the right side panel.
Gas supply connections and any pipe joint compound must be resistant to the action of propane gases.
The oven is provided with a regulator integral to the gas solenoid valve and requires no external
regulator. Location of the gas inlet is at the rear of the oven. Codes require that a gas shutoff valve
must be installed in the gas line ahead of the oven.
Connect the oven(s) to the gas supply after leveling. The gas supply line must be at least the equivalent
3
⁄4"
(1.9 cm) iron pipe. Make sure the pipes are clean and free of obstructions, dirt, or pipe joint
of
compound. The ovens are equipped with fixed burner orifices which match the installation elevation.
– 7 –
Natural gas pressure regulators are preset for 3.5" W.C. (Water Column) (0.9 kPa); propane gas
pressure regulators are preset for 10" W.C.
(2.5 kPa).
WARNING: PRIOR TO LIGHTING, CHECK ALL JOINTS IN THE GAS SUPPLY LINE FOR LEAKS.
USE SOAP AND WATER SOLUTION. DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.
After piping has been checked for leaks, all piping receiving gas should be fully purged to remove air.
TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM
1
When gas supply pressure exceeds
⁄2 psig (3.45 kPa), the oven and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system.
1
When gas supply pressure is
⁄2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the oven should be isolated from the gas supply
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the system.
ADJUSTMENTS
Air Adjustment
Although main burner air is adjusted before shipment, it should be checked at the time of installation.
Excessive air will cause flames to lift off a burner when cold or may cause flash-back during normal
cycling of the oven, particularly when propane gas is used.
Insufficient air will cause flames to burn with a yellow tip and result in carbon accumulation in the flame
chamber and heat exchanger tubes.
Contact your local Vulcan-Hart authorized servicer if required.
VENT SYSTEM
DO NOT obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue located on the rear of the oven. It is recommended
that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation system installed by
qualified personnel.
Ovens may use an optional down draft diverter flue method. This optional down draft diverter must be
purchased from the oven manufacturer and vented to the outside; otherwise, the installation of any
such device will void all oven certifications and warranties. When the diverter is supplied, it may be
connected to a Type “B” vent.
From the termination of the flue to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum clearance of
(45.7 cm) must be maintained.
18"
Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from

ROAST AND HOLD OPERATION
Roast and Hold cooks the product in two stages. During First Stage Cooking, the oven temperature
is regulated by the Roast thermostat for the amount of time set on the Timer. After the lapsed time
counts down to 00:00, Second Stage Cooking begins. During Second Stage Cooking, the burners are
off as the temperature in the oven declines to the Hold Temperature. The doors should remain closed
during Second Stage Cooking.
When the Hold Temperature is reached, cooking is done. The Time Display counts up the Hold time
and flashes "Hold." Temperature in the oven will be maintained at the Hold temperature until the oven
is turned off.

RACK ARRANGEMENTS
All models are supplied with five racks and have a maximum operating capacity of six racks per oven.
The eleven-position rack supports provide for flexibility and proper rack spacing.
The following arrangements are recommended. The position numbers are in numerical sequence
starting at the bottom (Fig. 6).
Arrangement #1 — Five racks in Positions #2, #4, #6, #8,
and #10 are for oven broiling, cookies or reconstitution of
frozen lunches at maximum capacity. These are also the
recommended positions for general baking in sheet pans
1
with products not over 2
⁄2" (6.4 cm) high.
Arrangement #2 — Four racks in Positions #1, #4, #7, and
#10 are for general baking in sheet pans, muffin pans, pie

When mixed loads or partial loading is regular practice, some users have developed other rack
arrangements to suit their particular needs.
RECOMMENDED TEMPERATURE, TIME, AND POWER LEVEL SETTINGS FOR ROASTING
Meat roasting is most satisfactory at temperatures of 225°F to 325°F
poultry, and ham; 325°F
A 12" x 20" x 1"
(30.4 x 50.8 x 2.5 cm) pan with water may be placed in the oven bottom to supply humidity
(162°C) for fresh pork as recommended by USDA and American Meat Institute.
(107°C to 162°C) for beef, lamb,
to reduce shrinkage. Add water during roasting as needed.

Roasting pans should be no deeper than necessary to hold drippings, usually 2" to 2
⁄2" (5.1 to 6.4 cm).
Cooking time and shrinkage may vary with roasting temperature, cut, grade of meat, and degree of
doneness. Smaller cuts will generally show greater time savings than larger cuts at a given temperature.

SPECIAL PROCEDURES FOR BAKING
When baking yeast breads, cooking starts immediately in the convection oven. Yeast breads do not
usually rise as much in a convection oven as in a conventional oven. Therefore, it is usually necessary
1
to allow fuller proof, 2
⁄2 to 3 times increase in volume for best results.
When baking pies in your convection oven, 3 or 4 pies should be put on an 18x26" sheet or bun pan.
This procedure helps the bottom crust to bake, makes handling easier, and reduces the possibility of
boilover spoiling the appearance of the pies on the lower racks.
COOKING HINTS
Forced air convection cooking is faster than conventional oven cooking, and therefore, overcooking
is more common. Do not cook products faster than is practical for the best results. Since forced
convection supplies heat to the surface of the product, the thicker or more massive a product is for its
type, the longer it will take to absorb enough heat to cook.
If four racks of a product cook properly at 350°F (177°C) with a power level control setting of 6 in 15
minutes, one rack should also cook properly at 350°F
1
rack you have only a
⁄4 load, not as much heat is needed. By changing the power level control to 1,
(177°C) in 15 minutes. However, since with one
the single rack load will receive a proportionally smaller amount of heat. It will take the same time at
the same temperature as the four-rack load and be cooked to the same browned and finished
consistency.
The oven will cook or bake full or partial loads at standard recipe temperatures when the power level
control is properly set. As with any oven, you may wish to use a temperature of up to 25 F°
(14 C°) higher
or lower than the recipe, for the particular product result that you prefer.
When established, note convection oven times and power level control settings on your recipe.
HIGH LIMIT SWITCH
All ovens are equipped with a high limit switch which senses the temperature of the oven to prevent
overheating. The high limit switch operates independently and will automatically shut the oven down
should the primary control fail. If this situation occurs, DO NOT attempt to bypass the high limit. Shut
the oven down and contact your local Vulcan authorized service agency.

CLEANING
WARNING: DISCONNECT THE ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY AND PLACE A TAG AT THE
DISCONNECT SWITCH INDICATING THAT YOU ARE WORKING ON THE OVEN BEFORE
CLEANING.
Allow the oven to cool before cleaning.
Snorkel Tube
The Snorkel tube opening should never be blocked. If usage of aluminum foil is a common practice
during the operation of this oven, be sure to periodically check the Snorkel tube for foil particles. The
Snorkel tube should be kept clean at all times for proper operation of the oven. Clean this tube with
standard oven cleaner at least once a week. Be sure to thoroughly clean all cleansing solution off the
tube before using the oven again. It is also recommended that the oven be run at 400°F
minutes before using to burn off any cleaning solution that was not thoroughly rinsed from the tube.
Daily
Exterior stainless steel oven panels should be cleaned with a damp cloth. Stubborn soil may be
removed with detergent. (DO NOT USE "DAWN".) Rinse thoroughly and wipe dry with a soft clean
cloth. Clean porcelain oven interior daily with soap or detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly and wipe
dry with a soft clean cloth. Nickel plated racks and rack supports may be removed for cleaning.
For burned-on foods and grease which resist simple soap and water cleaning, an abrasive cleanser
(scouring powder) mixed into a paste may be used. Apply with stainless steel wool or sponge, always
rubbing with the "grain." This treatment is equally effective for "heat tint" (slightly darkened areas
caused by oxidation). Again, remember to rub in the direction of the polish lines. Rinse with clear water
and dry with a soft cloth.
(204°C) for 20
Do not use scouring powder on the glass window; it will scratch and fog the glass.
After processing some foods at low temperatures, odors may linger in the oven. These odors may be
cleared by setting the thermostat at 500°F
oven to run unloaded for 30 to 45 minutes.
