SPACING  
The oven must have 6 inches (152 mm) of clearance from combustible surfaces. In case other equipment is  
located on the right side of oven, a minimum clearance of 24 inches (609 mm) is required from that equipment.  
FOR ALL OVENS: A 24-inch (609 mm) clearance at the rear of the oven must be obtainable for service access.  
FOR PERMANENTLY INSTALLED OVENS: A permanently installed (unmovable) oven requires a minimum of 13  
feet clearance on the right hand side to allow for conveyor removal, cleaning, and servicing.  
NOTE: Do not install this (these) oven(s) in any area with an ambient temperature in excess of 95° F / 35° C.  
Doing so will cause damage to the unit.  
This oven must be operated on approved basis only.  
CAUTION:  
!
VENTILATION  
A VENT IS REQUIRED: Local codes prevail. These are the “authority having jurisdiction” as stated by the  
NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION ASSOCIATION, INC. in NFPA 96 latest edition. In addition, to be in compliance  
with the NFPA 54 Section 10.3.5.2, this unit must be installed with a ventilation hood interlock that prevents the unit  
from operating when the ventilation hood is off. For further ventilation information, see below.  
VENTILATION GUIDELINES  
A ventilation hood is required to remove heat and cooking odors. For gas ovens, a ventilation hood is also required  
to remove the products of combustion. The hood and HVAC installation must meet local codes to gain approval by  
the authority having jurisdiction. Requirements may vary throughout the country depending on the location by city,  
county, and state. Obtain information from the authority having jurisdiction to determine the requirements for your  
installation. Obtain information and review copies of codes or documents that will be used to inspect and approve  
your installation. Your ventilation hood supplier and HVAC contractor should be contacted to provide guidance. A  
properly engineered and installed ventilation hood and HVAC system will expedite approval and reduce oven  
maintenance costs. Proper ventilation is the oven owner’s responsibility.  
The ventilation hood must operate in harmony with the building HVAC system. It typically requires between 1400  
and 3700 CFM exhaust. (The “Efficiency” of various hood designs makes it necessary to specify such a wide range  
of ventilator CFM.) Make up air must be supplied by either a hood design or the HVAC system. This will vary with  
hoods from various manufacturers.  
CAUTION: Prevent airflow through the cooking tunnel. Air must NOT be directed onto the oven front or at  
side of cooking area or rear of oven.  
Performance will be evaluated during Start-up Checkout by conducting a smoke candle test. The hood must  
capture all smoke from the oven. This is required to assure proper performance of the oven and to eliminate  
additional service calls that occur when ambient temperatures are too high. In all cases, the ambient temperature  
around the oven must be less than 95° F / 35° C when the oven is operating. In certain localities, other chemical or  
gaseous methods of detecting adequate capture will be the requirement to meet the local code authority.  
For an illustration noting typical guideline information, see “canopy ventilation recommendations” section. Please  
note, however, that this is not a rigid specification but a guideline. Hood dimensions and the positioning of the hood  
over the oven will vary with hood manufacturers.  
NOTE: Lincoln can provide oven spec sheets that show the dimensions of the oven, KW or BTU ratings and other  
information that will be useful to both the ventilation hood supplier and the HVAC contractor.  
IN AUSTRALIA: Refer to Standard AS 5601. This standard specifies the requirements for piping, flueing,  
ventilation and appliance installation associated with use of or intended use of fuel gases. The requirements of AS  
5601 are to be used in conjunction with, but do not take precedence over, any statutory regulations that may apply  
in any area.

Impinger 3255 – Operator Manual  
INFORMATION ON USE OF OVEN  
®
As explained in “Concepts,” the Impinger oven functions by directing high velocity streams of heated air directly  
on the food products. Because air is the heat source, it is effective even on sensitive foods. Compared to  
®
conventional ovens and even convection ovens, the cooking time of products in the Impinger Conveyor ovens can  
be as much as two (2) to four (4) times faster. Several factors may affect the cooking time of any special product  
such as: 1) oven temperature setting, 2) conveyor speed, 3) position of columnating plate in oven, and 4)  
adjustments of the 2 baffles on the conveyor openings.  
We encourage you to experiment with the oven by trying different temperature settings and belt speeds. Also, try  
to control the cooking of the product by re-arranging the optional columnating plates.  
Do not work around conveyor with long hair, loose clothing, or dangling jewelry.  
Getting caught in the belt could result in serious injury.  
WARNING:  
!
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE  
Although this oven has been designed to be as trouble-free as possible, periodic preventive maintenance is  
essential to maintain peak performance. It is necessary to keep the motors, fans, and electronic controls free of  
dirt, dust and debris to insure proper cooling. Overheating is detrimental to the life of all components mentioned.  
The periodic intervals for preventive cleaning may very greatly depending on the environment in which the oven is  
operating. You must discuss the need for preventive maintenance with your Authorized Service Agency to  
establish a proper program. If there are any questions that the service agency cannot answer, please contact  
Lincoln Foodservice Technical Service Department at (800) 678-9511.  
OPERATOR MAINTENANCE  
Disconnect power supply before servicing or cleaning this unit. Safeguard power so it  
cannot be accidentally restored. Failure to do so could result in serious injury. There  
is more than one power supply connection point when ovens are stacked, so make  
DANGER:  
!
sure that all switches are in “OFF” position before cleaning or maintenance.  
To maintain maximum efficiency of the oven, it is necessary to keep it clean, all ventilation louvers on the oven  
must be cleaned regularly. Oven use and type of product will actually determine the frequency of cleaning. The  
conveyor drive chain should be checked during the weekly cleaning cycle to see if it has become loose. Loose  
chain operation will DAMAGE the conveyor drive motor.  
If the oven fails to operate, check the circuit breaker to be sure it is turned on. Also, check the fuses on the control  
panel to be sure that they are good before you call the Authorized Service Agency. The name and phone number  
of the Authorized Service Agency should be located at the bottom of the data plate.

3. Pull conveyor out the right end. Place on table or work surface.  
CONVEYOR INSTALLATION  
Set tension on the conveyor belt. The belt should be able to be lifted enough to allow  
it to be ¼” (6 mm) from the top of the conveyor opening on the oven. Do not over  
tighten the belt!  
CAUTION:  
!
1. Insert the conveyor through the opening in the right side. Sprocket should be to the right side of the conveyor.  
2. Slide conveyor through the oven chamber until the locking bar on the drive end of the conveyor is  
approximately 2” – 3” (50 – 76 mm) into the oven chamber. Install drive chain by placing it over the drive  
sprocket and placing it over the conveyor sprocket.  
3. Lift conveyor just enough to allow you to pull the conveyor toward you until the locking bar is outside of the  
oven cavity, at the same time push the conveyor downward so that the bar locks on the outside of the oven  
wall.  
4. Reinstall conveyor crumb pans and chain guard cover.

CONCEPTS  
®
The Impinger Conveyor Oven produced by Lincoln Foodservice Products, LLC utilizes a revolutionary cooking  
concept called “AIR IMPINGEMENT.” It provides exceptional baked food product quality in far less time than  
conventional devices on the market. The “AIR IMPINGEMENT” system directs a high velocity stream of heated air  
at the food product being baked. This blast effect penetrates the boundary layer of air encircling the product and  
heats the food more efficiently because the air concentrates heat on the product. Greater heat transfer rates, which  
result in products baking two to four times faster than conventional means, are possible with “AIR IMPINGEMENT.”  
The “AIR IMPINGEMENT” process develops the high velocity air stream  
with a specially designed fan that draws super-heated air from a heat  
source (either gas or electric). This air is directed through a plenum  
chamber to patented “JET FINGERS” which have hundreds of focused jet  
ports that “impinge” the heated air onto the product surface. The heated  
air is recycled to the heat source after striking the product, thus reducing  
energy consumption.  
A variable speed conveyor system moves food products through the oven one after another to improve product flow  
during the cooking process.  
The “AIR IMPINGEMENT” process is tolerant enough for sensitive food products and effects proper crisping and  
even browning of such products as they pass through the oven because air is the medium which heats the food  
product.  
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE OVEN until connection of utility service and installation has been  
fully inspected (START-UP CHECKOUT) by an Authorized Service Technician or a Lincoln Foodservice Products,  
LLC Service Representative. This service is required by Lincoln Foodservice Products, LLC in order to insure the  
oven(s) is properly installed and in working order. The warranty becomes effective upon verification of proper  
installation.  
The warranty shall not apply if the oven(s) are started up and operated prior to the “START-UP CHECKOUT” being  
performed by an Authorized Service Technician or a Lincoln Foodservice Products, LLC Service Representative.  
If the supply cord appears to be damaged, do not attempt to operate unit. Contact  
service agent or qualified technician to repair.  
WARNING:  
!
HOW TO OBTAIN SERVICE  
If the oven fails to operate, check the circuit breaker to be sure it is turned on (on a gas oven check the manual gas  
valve to insure it is in the ON position) and check the fuses on the back of the oven to be sure they are good before  
you call the Authorized Service Agency. The name and phone number of the Authorized Service Agency should be  
located on the oven or contact the factory at (800) 678-9511 for the name of the nearest agency.  
FUNCTIONS  
THERMAL CUT-OUT SWITCH FOR CONTROL BOX COMPONENTS  
The 3255 unit includes a “safety thermal cut-out switch” for your protection. This safety related device is designed  
to insure that the 3255 unit will not overheat and damage the unit. In the unlikely event that the 3255 unit would  
exceed the specified operating temperature range, the “safety thermal cut-out switch” will activate, thus blocking  
power to the 3255 unit and causing it to turn off.  
In order to avoid a hazard due to inadvertent resetting of the thermal cutout, this  
appliance must not be supplied through an external switching device, such as a timer  
or connected to a circuit that is regularly switched on and off by the utility.
