OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
(b) Top section takes longer to bake as compared to
the bottom section. Allow 1 to 2 minutes extra
bake time for the items placed there.
(c) Frequently scrape and brush off decks to remove
burnt residue which can cause an “off” flavor
and bake times to increase.
(d) Heavily topped Pizza or Pan Pizza requires
lower bake temperatures and longer bake times
as compared to a regular thin Pizza with light
toppings.
Apply stainless steel cleanser only when the oven
is cold. Always rub with the grains and apply very
light pressure.
NOTICE
Painted Surfaces:
(a) Washing with mild soap and water solution is
adequate to keep the painted surfaces clean.
(b) Apply a thin coat of oil to protect and enhance
the finish
Control Panel:
Every six months (more frequently if the oven is used
heavily) the bottom door spring mechanism and all
moving parts must be inspected for wear.
Do not apply grease to spring lever shoulder bolt, spring
roller or the door rod and the door pin. They have a self-
lubricating insert that will be damaged if lubricated.
Flue Vent:
Ventilation system must be inspected every six months
and maintained clean and free of obstructions.
Oven Interior:
Clean the oven interior only when the oven is cold. Use
only the detergent solutions and cleaners that meet the
national and / or local codes.
Baking Chamber:
Clean the ceiling and the walls of the baking chamber
with a mild soap and water solution. Do not use oven
cleaners, caustic solutions or mechanical means as
they will damage the interior aluminized surface.
(e) Bubbles in fresh dough indicate under proofed
or cold product. Allow the dough balls to proof
to double in size and warm temperature before
baking.
(f) Any type of Pan or Screen may be used in this
oven. When choosing pans, be sure to pick a pan
which is closest in height of your product. Dark
color pans and screens transfer heat better than
light colored aluminum pans or screens. They
must be seasoned before use.
