Heating
The rack oven reaches baking temperatures of 350°
in approximately 20 minutes; however, a 30 minute
preheat is recommended to fully heat the steam
generator.
Steaming System
Standard on all rack ovens, is a self-contained
spherical cast steam system providing excellent
steaming conditions.
UNPACKING
Remove the crating from the oven exterior, check for
possible shipping damage. If the oven is found to be
damaged after unpacking, save the packaging
material and contact the carrier within 15 days of
delivery.
NOTE: If the location has multiple ovens, keep the
serial numbered crates together.
LOCATION
To reduce the risk of fire, the appliance is
to be installed on non-combustible surface only, with
no combustible material within 18 inches above the
appliance. The appliance is to be mounted on floors
of non-combustible construction with noncombustible
flooring and surface finish and with no combustible
material against the underside, or on non-combustible
slabs or arches having no combustible material
against the underside. Such construction shall in all
cases extend not less than 12 inches beyond the
equipment on all sides.
Oven not provided with a canopy hood, must be
installed under a ventilation hood.
The floor must be level with surrounding area with a
maximum slope of 1/8" per foot up to 3/4" maximum
in all directions. Floor anchors require a minimum 1"
thick solid floor substrate.
A level floor area must be prepared before assembling
oven. The floor area should be at least 104"D x 74"W
for double rack oven and 94"D x 57"W for single rack
oven, to accommodate the oven footprint and door
swing. Check the facilities floor area at the threshold
and door swing opening location to determine if
facilities floor will need to be reworked.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation
air. Keep the appliance area free and clear from
combustibles.
Make sure there is an adequate supply of make up air
in the room to allow for combustion.
The electrical diagram is located on the inside of the
heat exchanger compartment door.
