3.0 Safety
Working around an oven that can generate up to
800°F can be dangerous if proper clothing and
tools are not used. Also, combustible materials in
the vicinity of the oven may be at risk.
WARNING: When working around a pizza
oven, make sure that proper
clothing is worn and proper tools
are used. Make sure that com-
bustible materials not necessary
to baking pizza are kept away
from the oven.
3.1 Clothing
A. It is advisable that long-sleeved shirts be
worn when inserting and removing pizzas in-
to/from the oven.
B. Use a non-combustible oven mitt when stok-
ing and adding wood to the fire.
C. Use the non-combustible mitt when inserting
and removing or turning pizzas.
3.2 Tools
Special tools are available for the management of
oven fires and inserting and removing food. These
tools can be obtained from Stone Age Manufactur-
ing and are shown later in this manual.
4.0 Installation
The pizza ovens and base cabinets are not specifi-
cally designed as a “do it yourself” project. This is
primarily because of component weight and the
care required when applying mortar. However, it
can be done if one has the necessary weight-lifting
equipment, and can use a mortaring trowel. We
recommend that you contract with a professional
mason or landscape contractor to install and finish
your installation.
Although not included with the oven package, an
optional base cabinet, part of our standard outdoor
kitchen island system, used primarily for storage, is
available from Stone Age Manufacturing. You may,
however, install the oven on your own base. If so,
make sure it will support the weight.
4.1 Installing the Base Cabinet
The Stone Age Cabinet Component System island
kits will structurally support a Vecchio or Brick
Oven but are a different dimension than the base of
the ovens. The base plate dimensions of Vecchio or
Brick Oven are 34” wide from side to side and 42”
