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 dam-
D
age. Any evidence of damage should be noted
on the delivery receipt which must be signed by
the driver.
Uncrate the oven and check for internal dam-
D
age. Carriers will accept claims for concealed
damage if notified within fifteen days of delivery
and the shipping container is retained for in-
spection.
The Blodgett Oven Company cannot assume
responsibility for loss or damage suffered in
transit. The carrier assumed 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.
The following clearances must be maintained be-
tween the oven and any combustible or non-com-
bustible construction.
Oven body right side --- 2" (5 cm)
D
Oven body left side --- 2" (5 cm)
D
Oven body back --- 2" (5 cm)
D
Oven body bottom --- 4" (10 cm)
D
The following clearances must be available for ser-
vicing.
Oven body sides --- 12" (30.5 cm)
D
Oven body back --- 12" (30.5 cm)
D
NOTE: Routine servicing can usually be accom-
plished within the limited movement pro-
vided by the gas hose restraint. If the oven
is moved further from the wall, the gas
must be turned off and disconnected from
the oven before removing the restraint. Re-
connect the restraint after the oven has
been returned to its normal position.
It is essential that an adequate air supply to the
oven be maintained to provide a sufficient flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
Place the oven in an area that is free of drafts.
D
Keep the oven area free and clear of all combus-
D
tibles such as paper, cardboard, and flammable
liquids and solvents.
Do not place the oven on a curb base or seal to
D
a wall. This will restrict the flow of air and prevent
proper ventilation. Tripping of the blower motor's
thermal overload device is caused by an exces-
sive ambient temperature on the right side of the
oven. This condition must be corrected to prevent
permanent damage to the oven.
For gas models the location must provide ade-
D
quate clearance for the air opening into the
combustion chamber.
Before making any utility connections to this oven,
check the rating plate to be sure the oven specifi-
cations are compatible with the gas and electrical
services supplied for the oven.
1. Remove the motor compartment cover. The
rating plate is attached to the right side of the
motor compartment, located on the right side
of the oven.
