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 damage.
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 damage.
Carriers will accept claims for concealed damage if
notied within fteen days of delivery and the ship-
ping container is retained for inspection.
The Blodgett Oven Company cannot assume responsibil-
ity for loss or damage suffered in transit. The carrier as-
sumed full responsibility for delivery in good order when
the shipment was accepted. We are, however, prepared
to assist you if ling 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.
Be sure to place the oven in an area which is accessible
for proper operation and servicing.
It is essential that ventilation air not be obstructed in any
way if proper operation is to be assured. A minimum of
two inches (5 cm) must be maintained between both the
sides and the rear of the unit and any wall.

Installation
Electrical Connection
Ovens are supplied for operation on 208 volt or 220-240
volt installation. The thermostat, indicator light and related
switches are interconnected through one power source
supplied to the oven.
Before making any connection to this oven, check the rat-
ing plate attached to the bodyback to assure that the volt-
age, phase and KW rating are compatible with the electri-
cal supply. See diagram.
All ovens, when installed, must be connected and electri-
cally grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-Latest Edition and/or Canadian Electric
Code CSA C22.1 as applicable.
Wiring diagrams are located on the bodyback.
The supply conduit enters through the rear of the oven
and electrical connection is made to the terminal block
secured to the panel at the back of the control compart-
ment. Electrical connection sizes for a double 1400 oven
are shown in “Electrical Connection AWG” column of the
Electrical Specications found on page 2 of this manual.
Wiring is sized for 75_C copper wire at 125% of rated
input. Reference is from the National Electric Code ANSI/
NFPA 70- Latest Edition.

The aluminized surface may be kept clean and in good
condition with mineral oil:
1. Allow the oven to cool.
2. Large amounts of baked on splatter may be removed
with a brass scraper, gently applied.
3. Saturate a cloth with mineral oil and wipe the oven.

monia, lye or soda ash. DO NOT use domestic
oven cleaners. Any of these products will
damage the aluminum coating.
Deck Stone Dry-Out Procedure
If excess water is absorbed by the stone and then quick-
ly heated, the boiling water expands and may crack the
stone. To prevent cracking perform one of the following
dry-out procedures:
1. Dry stones overnight at room temperature with the
door open.
2. Set oven to 150ºF for 2 hours to slowly dry out the
stone.
WEEKLY CLEANING
• Brush out the control area.
6 MONTH CLEANING
• Clean secondary air ducts and air entry ports.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
The best preventative maintenance measures are, the
proper installation of the equipment and a program for
routinely cleaning the ovens.
This oven requires no lubrication, however, the venting
system should be checked annually for possible deterio-
ration resulting from moisture and corrosive ue products.
If maintenance or repairs are required, contact the fac-
tory, the factory representative or a local Blodgett service
company.
WARNING!!
Disconnect the oven from the power supply
before servicing. It is not necessary to unplug
the oven when cleaning.
