Delivery and Location
DELIVErY AND INSpECTION
All Blodgett ovens are shipped in containers to prevent
damage. Upon delivery of your new oven:
•
Inspect the shipping container for external damage.
Any evidence of damage should be noted on the
delivery receipt which must be signed by the driver.
•
Uncrate and check for internal damage. Carriers will
accept claims for concealed damage if notified within
fifteen days of delivery and the shipping container is
retained for inspection.
The Blodgett Oven Company cannot assume responsibil-
ity for loss or damage suffered in transit. The carrier as-
sumed full responsibility for delivery in good order when
the shipment was accepted. We are, however, prepared
to assist you if filing a claim is necessary.
OVEN LOCATION
The well planned and proper placement of your oven will
result in long term operator convenience and satisfactory
performance.
wArNING - rISk OF FIrE
Do not install closer than 6” (15 cm) to a back
wall, side wall, warming surface, other surface
or combustible materials.
It is essential that an adequate air supply to the oven be
maintained to provide a sufficient flow of combustion and
ventilation air.
•
Area must be accessible for proper servicing.
•
Keep the oven area free and clear of all combus-
tibles such as paper, cardboard, and flammable
liquids and solvents.
•
To ensure proper operation, ventilation must not be
obstructed in any way. Tripping of the blower motor
thermal overload protective device is caused by ex-
cessive ambient temperature on the control side of
the oven resulting from insufficient ventilation. This
condition must be corrected immediately to avoid
permanent damage to the oven.
Before making any utility connections to this oven, check
the rating plate to be sure the oven specifications are
compatible with the electrical services supplied for the
oven.
1. The rating plate is attached to the underside of the
oven upper ledge above the control panel.
