Lifting and removal

The oven has to be lifted and moved with the help of forklift or wheelbarrow by equipped and instructed in the safety procedures personnel.
The oven has to be placed on well levelled platform. It is not necessary to be fixed to the foundation.

Leading smoke gases away

Connecting the oven into the chimney is done by chimney pipes which have to be in conformity with the following conditions:

They have to be produced from materials made to endure the heat of the smoke gases and the possible delays.
The connections have to be well sealed and the used materials have to endure heat and corrosion.
They has to be easy visible, easy for dismantling and assembling, and provide a possibility for thermal expansion.
A piece of vertical pipe with a length at least twice the diameter of the chimney’s opening has to be installed at the outlet of the oven.
After the piece of vertical pipe, a horizontal section with an inclination of at least 3 % can be installed. The length of this section does not have to exceed the useful height of the chimney.
The change of direction is possible in no more than 3 places, including the chimney’s inlet.
The bends must not have an angle more than 90 degrees.
The pipe – diameter along the whole length has to be permanent.

Initial Heating

The initial heating has to be carried out very carefully, gradually increasing the temperature and usually it is performed for 2 – 3 days because the moisture has to be separated from the baking chamber and from the isolation layer.
!!! Attention !!!
Sharply increasing the temperature in this period can lead to formation of cracks on the foundation and the cupola.
Usually, in the period of initial heating, drops of water start leaking from the oven, because this is a period of intensive drying – Taking into consideration of this fact, electric devices and cable are not recommended to be placed in this zone.

First day:

Put the woods to the left part of the baking chamber and light them. Do NOT put them to the right side because you may damage the thermometer.
You must reach e temperature of about 100-150 degrees C.
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 8-10 hours.

Second day:

Light the woods.
You must reach e temperature of about 200-250 degrees C.
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 8-10 hours.

Third day:

Light the woods.
You must reach e temperature of about 300-320 degrees C.
At reaching this temperature regime, the oven is ready to bake standard pizza.

First day:

Switch on the oven
Decrease the power regulator to the minimum
Set the working temperature to 100 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 8-10 hours

Second day:

Switch on the oven
Set the power regulator to 30 %
Set the working temperature to 200 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
Set the power regulator to 50 %
Set the working temperature to 250 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours

Third day:

Switch on the oven
Set the power regulator to 80 %
Set the working temperature to 300 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
Set the power regulator to 100 %
Set the working temperature to 330-350 degrees
At reaching this temperature regime, the oven is ready to bake standard pizza.

!!! Attention !!!
Do not install the door when the gas burner is working. The oven can be closed only when the gas burner is switched off – usually at the end of the working day.

First day:

Switch on the oven
Decrease the power regulator to the minimum
Set the working temperature to 100 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 8-10 hours
It is recommendable initial heating to be done by using both types of fuel – wood and gas. Wood burning can be done on a basic way – one-two pieces of wood with low burning intensity.

Second day:

Switch on the oven
Set the power regulator to 30 %
Set the working temperature to 200 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
Set the power regulator to 50 %
Set the working temperature to 250 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
It is recommendable initial heating to be done by using both types of fuel – wood and gas. Wood burning can be done on a basic way – one-two pieces of wood with low burning intensity.

Third day:

Switch on the oven
Set the power regulator to 80 %
Set the working temperature to 300 degrees
Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
Set the power regulator to 100 %
Set the working temperature to 330-350 degrees
At reaching this temperature regime, the oven is ready to bake standard pizza.

It is recommendable initial heating to be done by using both types of fuel – wood and gas. Wood burning can be done on a basic way – one-two pieces of wood with low burning intensity. After reaching 330-350 degrees wood burning can be further increased to maximum.

!!! Attention !!!
Do not install the door when the gas burner is working. The oven can be closed only when the gas burner is switched off – usually at the end of the working day.
