Initial Assembly
For easier care and service, your Artisan Fire Pizza Oven stacks together. No
tools are required for initial assembly.
A. Place BASE UNIT A in the desired location, 6 inches away from any combustible surface on the sides,
back and front. The pizza oven may NOT be placed underneath any overhead combustible surface.
B. Insert HEAT DIFFUSERS B into BASE UNIT A. These will be positioned between the lower burner and
the cooking decks.
C.
Remove COOKING DECKS C from the cardboard box. Remove any stickers from the cooking deck.
Carefully insert the cooking decks into BASE UNIT A. Sudden impact will crack the cooking decks, so
use caution.
D. Place MID BODY D onto BASE UNIT A, aligning the holes in the bottom of MID BODY D with the
small posts on BASE UNIT A. MID BODY D should sit flat and be positively located by the posts.
E.
Insert CEILING STONE E into the top
opening of MID BODY E. Remove any tape
that may have been used during shipping.
F. Place ROOF F onto MID BODY D. The large
opening at the top should face rearward.
This is the exhaust “chimney.”
G. If not already on the unit, mount CONTROL
KNOBS G & H on the valve posts. Be sure
the flat side of the opening in the knob
casting is aligned with the flat side of the
valve stem (see Figure 11). The metal tab
welded into the knob opening is placed
against the round side of the valve stem.
I.
Insert CRUMB TRAY I into the opening on
the front of the unit below the main shelf. It
sits on a ledge. Crumbs can be brushed off
the cooking deck down into the gap at the
front of the stone, falling into the crumb tray.
WARNING: The crumb tray will become hot
during operation. To avoid burns, be certain
the oven is cool before touching the tray, or
use an appropriate cooking mitt.
J.
The pizza oven DOOR J sits in the
doorway.
WARNING:
Never operate the
oven with the door in place.
K.
MANUAL IGNITION WAND K is
for use in manually igniting the
oven. It may be stored on the
ledge on the underside of the side
shelf on BASE UNIT A.
