UNLOADING AND MOVING
LIFTING THE OVEN
1. USING A CRANE
The oven arrives with four lifting eyes attached.
When craning aWood 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
USING A PALLET JACK TO MOVE A WOOD STONE OVEN
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 ON A PALLET JACK IS NOT SAFE!
Contact Wood Stone if the oven must be turned on its side for specific instructions. Moving a Wood
Stone oven can present interesting challenges to even the most experienced riggers.
Take your time, use your head, secure the proper equipment and make safety your first priority. Please
don’t hesitate to call the factory for technical support (1-800-988-8103).
DO NOTTURNTHE OVEN ON ITS SIDE!

Be sure to use a forklift rated to lift more than the
oven weighs as shown below. Fork length must be
at least 6 feet, if not, fork extensions should be used.
The oven stand is equipped with fork pockets just
above the angle iron base. The oven is very top

GAS
The Wood Stone Gas ovens are equipped with a 3/4" NPT gas
connection. Have a licensed gas installer provide the hook-up and test
all fittings and pipe connections for leaks. Use approved gas leak
detectors (soap solutions or equivalent) over and around the fittings and pipe
connections. DO NOT USE FLAME TO TEST FOR LEAKS!
SV-1 and SV-2 are the gas control valves that operate under floor
infrared burner and the interior radiant burner, respectively. SV-1 is located
directly behind the service/ intake panel and in front of the under floor infrared
burner. SV-2 is located under the oven to the rear left.
The manifold pressure test port for the infrared under floor
burner is a 1/8" NPT plugged tapping located near the left end of the
burner manifold.
The manifold pressure test port for the radiant (interior) burner is
a 1/8" NPT plugged tapping located at the base of the T-junction between
the SV-2 and the radiant/interior burner. When checking this pressure,
make sure the flame is turned up to its maximum height using the knob
on the front of the oven.
The burner manifold pressures have been adjusted and tested at the factory. A variety of
factorscaninfluencethesepressures,sobe sure to testtheindividualburnermanifoldpressures
and adjust the valves as necessary to achieve the required pressures. Note:The gas valves
are shipped in the 'on' position.

The following are the manufacturer’s recommendations for venting theWood Stone MS (Mountain
Series) RFG-IR-W ovens. It is never appropriate to use“B vent”in any part of an exhaust system
connected to aWood Stone oven. All ducting material must be manufactured to the specifications of
a grease duct and a listed building heating appliance chimney.This is a wood/gas combination oven
OVEN VENTING
and must be vented as a solid-fuel piece of equipment. Due to the possibility of sparks entering the
system, exhaust sytems serving solid fuel equipment must be vented separately from other non-solid
fuel equipment. Submit your venting plans to your local authorities before proceeding with your
installation, as there may be additional requirements in your area.
There are three options:
1. Direct connection.
A listed building heating appliance chimney,also listed as a grease duct as described in NFPA 96,
connected directly to the oven flue collar and provided with a power ventilator listed for restaurant
appliance exhaust.The power ventilator should be rated for a minimum of 450 degrees F.Wood
Stone does not recommend the use of an in-line fan. A single wall chimney/duct connector may be
used to connect the oven to a listed building heating appliance chimney also listed as a grease
duct.The chimney /duct connector should be a minimum .044 inch stainless steel or 16 ga. mild
steel (0.055 inch) and must maintain a minimum of 18 inches to combustibles.
A static pressure of negative 0.14 inches water column is necessary at the oven flue collar to ensure
thatfluegastemperaturesdonotexceed450degreesFahrenheitatthefaninlet.TheCFMrequiredtoattain
thisstaticpressurewilldependontheconfigurationofyourparticularinstallationbutwillprobablybebetween
500 and 700 CFM. Wood Stone provides a port in the flue collar of the oven for insertion of a magnehelic
gauge so the installer can monitor the draft to ensure proper operation of the venting system. NOTE:
Double door ovens (Models ending in DD), have two flue collars, both must be connected and a
static pressure of negative 0.14 inches must be maintained at each collar.
When using a direct connection as described above, the duct must be attached to the oven
flue collar with a full perimeter weld.
Install venting system in accordance with the duct manufacturer's instructions
and in accordance with all local codes. All field built components should be
built to the applicable codes and standards and are subject to the approval of
the authority having jurisdiction.

2. A ListedType 1 Exhaust Hood or one that is constructed and installed in accordance with all
relevant Local and National Codes. Wood Stone offers eyebrow-type hoods designed specifically for
Wood Stone ovens. See specification sheet on ventilators for Wood Stone ovens.

INITIAL OVEN STARTUP
FIRST DAY
1. Make sure main gas supply is on (valve parallel with gas line).
2. Make sure the switches on the Honeywell control gas valves are in the on position.
3. Remove the night door(s).Push ON/OFF button on controller. It may take a while for
the gas to purge all the air from the gas lines.
4. Allow oven to operate at FACTORY SETTINGS for 1 hour (thermostat set at 200 degrees,
radiant flame at its lowest setting).
5. After one hour, raise dome flame to 25% (~6 inch flame), hold this setting for 4 hours.
6. After 4 hours @ 25% flame, raise to 50% flame and hold for at least another 4 hours.
The oven can be left at this setting all night.
SECOND DAY
1. Set the floor temperature to 500 degrees.
2. Turn the radiant flame to 75% height.
The floor temperature should reach 500 degrees within about an hour. The oven is
now ready for cooking, go to it!!
General Daily Oven Operation
END OF THE DAY
1. Push ON/OFF button, all gas will go off, even the pilots.
2. Put oven door in place to retain heat.
BEGINNING OF THE DAY
1. Remove the night doors.
2. Push ON/OFF button, set controller to desired floor temperature and turn the radiant
flame to its highest setting. Oven should be stabilized at or above the set point within
60 to 90 minutes.
CLEANING THE OVEN
1. As needed (twice per hour), use the floor brush to sweep stray food debris to the doorway,
where it can be easily removed with a dough cutter or spatula.
2. As needed, swab the deck using an damp (not wet) rag wrapped around the floor brush.
NEVER PLACE ANYTHING IN OR ABOVE THE RADIANT FLAME
HOW TO READ FLOOR TEMPERATURE
Thefloor temperature iscontinuouslydisplayedbythe controllerinthe windowlabeled "hearth
temperature". This reading is being taken by a thermocouple about an inch below the floor
surface, so the actual surface temperature may be somewhat different, and is best measured
usinga non-contact (IR)thermometer.
HOW TO ADJUST THE FLOOR TEMPERATURE (SET POINT)
To adjust the oven's thermostatic floor temperature setting, simply press the arrow button
corresponding to the direction in which you would like the setting to go. If the thermostatic set
point is raised above the actual hearth temperature, the underfloor burner should activate.
Note: small "crazing" cracks will occur with normal heating and cooling.
They will not effect the performance or durability of the oven. If cracks
of 1/8" or more develop, contact Wood Stone for evaluation.

See page 20 for an illustration of the controller.
1. DAILY STARTUP
Remove the night door(s). Press the ON/OFF button to start the oven.
The Radiant Flame will ignite. The infrared under floor burner will
ignite if the actual floor temperature is below the set point temperature
to which the controller is adjusted.
POWER LIGHT: indicates the system is energized.
DOME FLAME LIGHT: indicates the pilot flame for the radiant burner is lit.
HEARTH HEAT LIGHT: indicates that the pilot flame for the infrared
(under-floor) burner is lit. This light will go off whenever the actual floor
temperature is above the thermostatic set point.
2. TURNING OFF THE OVEN
Push the ON/OFF button on the controller to turn the oven off.
Both burners will go out and the digital readout on the controller will go
blank.Always wait 5 minutes before relighting the oven.
3. ADJUSTING THE RADIANT (dome) FLAME
To adjust the radiant flame: The radiant flame is always on (when the
oven is operating) and can be adjusted to any flame intensity between its
highest and lowest setting. Simply turn the knob located to the lower left of
the doorway, beneath the mantle.
This burner is the primary heat source for the oven. The infrared
under floor burner acts as an assist, to maintain desired floor temperatures
during periods of high food production.
