UNLOADING AND MOVING
DO NOT TURN THE OVEN ON ITS SIDE!
Moving a Wood Stone oven can present challenges to even the most experienced riggers� Secure the proper equipment and make
safety your first priority� Please don’t hesitate to call your distributor for technical support�
LIFTING THE OVEN
1. USING A CRANE
The oven arrives with four lifting eyes attached�When craning a Wood Stone oven,
use a spreader bar with a two-legged sling rigged on each end� The spreader
bar should be of a sufficient length to keep the sling from contacting the oven�
NOTE: Once lifting eyes are no longer needed, remove the lifting eyes one at a
time AND BE SURE TO REPLACE THE BOLTS THAT ATTACH THE OVEN TO THE
STAND.
2. USING A FORKLIFT
Be sure to use a forklift rated, and forks the minimum length, as shown in the
table below� If necessary, fork extensions must be used so the forks extend
through the fork lift pockets to the opposite side of the stand� Lift from either side
as shown� Do not lift from the front or back� The oven is very top heavy, so spread
the forks as far apart as possible�

Make fast (straps or chains
should not be allowed to slip)
3. USING A PALLET JACK
Once the oven has been removed from the delivery vehicle, it can easily be moved
on flat surfaces using a pallet jack� To lift the oven with a pallet jack, remove the
front and rear angle iron stabilizers from the base of the oven stand and place a
stout 4x4 post through the fork pocket as shown�
THE OVEN IS VERY TOP-HEAVY. MOVING THE OVEN UP OR DOWN A RAMP OR
INCLINE ON A PALLET JACK IS NOT SAFE!
