Pizza Oven Location
The Artisan Fire Pizza Oven is designed for easy placement on an outdoor countertop. It may also
be used on a suitable table or cart. It is recommended that the pizza oven be placed on a non-
combustible surface.
Choosing a Location: Important consideration for
pizza oven placement include exposure to wind,
proximity to foot traffic and areas where people
congregate, and access to the gas supply.
Do not place the pizza oven in a location where the
door opening is likely to be exposed to strong wind.
Do not place the pizza oven where it is likely to be
bumped into or inadvertently touched by passers
by. It is recommended that the countertop or other
surface extend 9 inches beyond the sides and back of
the pizza oven as a safety clearance to protect people
from injury.
Do not place the pizza oven on a table or cart that is
unable to safely support the 100-pound weight of the
pizza oven or may topple or tip over.
IMPORTANT: Do not build the pizza oven into any type of enclosure. Proper air
circulation in and around the pizza oven is critical to its operation. Maintain at least
6 inches of clearance around the sides and back of the pizza oven, and 12 inches
above the top. Do not obstruct the open space below the pizza oven. NEVER place
the pizza oven underneath an overhead combustible surface. The pizza oven must be
placed on top of a non-combustible surface.
Initial Assembly
For easier care and service, your Artisan Fire Pizza Oven stacks together (see Figure 4). An adjustable
wrench is 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.
Remove COOKING DECK B from the cardboard
box. Remove any stickers from the cooking deck.
Carefully insert the cooking deck into BASE UNIT
A. Sudden impact will crack the cooking decks, so
use caution.

Do not place the pizza oven on any surface that
allows the pizza oven to slide easily or inadvertently
change position.
Never place the pizza oven where the gas hose
creates a safety hazard (see Figure 1). Tripping over an
exposed gas hose may create a gas leak, pull the pizza
oven off the counter or create other serious safety
hazards.
Never locate the pizza oven in a building, breezeway,
shed or other such enclosed areas.
The pizza oven is not intended to be installed in or on
a boat or recreational vehicle.
For ease of use and safe operation, it is
recommended the surface on which the pizza oven
sits be at least 36 inches high (counter-height) and not
more than 42 inches high (bar-height).
C.
Place MID BODY C onto BASE UNIT A, aligning
the holes in the bottom of MID BODY D with
the small posts on BASE UNIT A. MID BODY C
should sit flat and be positively located by the
posts.
D.
Insert CEILING STONE D into the top opening
of MID BODY C. Remove any tape that may have
been used during shipping.

E.
Place ROOF E onto MID BODY C. The large
opening at the top of the roof should face
rearward. This is the exhaust "chimney."
F.
If not already on the unit, mount CONTROL
KNOBS F & G 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.
H.
Insert CRUMB TRAY H 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.
