Introduction
Oven Description and Specifications
Cooking in a convection oven differs from cooking
in a conventional deck or range oven since heated
air is constantly recirculated over the product by
a fan in an enclosed chamber. The moving air con-
tinually strips away the layer of cool air surround-
ing the product, quickly allowing the heat to pene-
trate. The result is a high quality product, cooked
at a lower temperature in a shorter amount of time.
Blodgett convection ovens represent the latest ad-
vancement in energy efficiency, reliability, and
ease of operation. Heat normally lost, is recircu-
lated within the cooking chamber before being
vented from the oven: resulting in substantial re-
ductions in energy consumption and enhanced
oven performance.

Delivery and Location
DELIVERY AND INSPECTION
OVEN LOCATION
All Blodgett ovens are shipped in containers to
prevent damage. Upon delivery of your new oven:
D Inspect the shipping container for external dam-
age. Any evidence of damage should be noted
on the delivery receipt which must be signed by
the driver.
D Uncrate the oven and check for internal dam-
age. Carriers will accept claims for concealed
damage if notified within fifteen days of delivery
and the shipping container is retained for in-
spection.
The well planned and proper placement of your
oven will result in long term operator convenience
and satisfactory performance.
D Place the oven in an area which is accessible for
proper operation and servicing.
D It is also essential that ventilation air not be ob-
structed in any way if proper operation is to be
assured. Tripping of the blower motor thermal
overload protective device is caused by exces-
sive ambient temperature in the motor compart-
ment resulting from insufficient ventilation.
Such a condition must be corrected immediate-
ly if permanent damage to the oven is to be
avoided.
The Blodgett Oven Company cannot assume
responsibility for loss or damage suffered in
transit. The carrier assumed full responsibility
for delivery in good order when the shipment
was accepted. We are, however, prepared to
assist you if filing a claim is necessary.
Before making any utility connections to this oven,
check the rating plate attached to the back of the
oven to be sure the oven specifications are com-
patible with the electrical services supplied for the
oven.

ING PERSONNEL ARE THOSE WHO HAVE
CAREFULLY READ THE INFORMATION CON-
TAINED IN THIS MANUAL, ARE FAMILIAR WITH
THE FUNCTIONS OF THE OVEN AND/OR HAVE
HAD PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH THE OP-
ERATION OF THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED. AD-
HERENCE TO THE PROCEDURES RECOM-
MENDED HEREIN WILL ASSURE THE
ACHIEVEMENT OF OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE
AND LONG, TROUBLE-FREE SERVICE.
OPERATING TIPS
Oven Temperature
Follow the Time and Temperature recommenda-
tions provided for the product to be prepared in
the oven. Cooking at higher temperatures will not
reduce cooking time, it will produce unsatisfactory
results.
Pans and Racks
Product or pan height determines how many
racks are used. The oven holds up to three 9” x 13”
racks.
Please take the time to read the following safety
and operating instructions. They are the key to the
successful operation of your Blodgett conveyor
oven.
Never place a pan or aluminum foil on the bottom
of the oven. This obstructs the flow of air and re-
sults in uneven baking and roasting.
Baking
Weigh the product to ensure equal distribution in
each pan. Varying amounts of product will cause
uneven baking results.
SAFETY TIPS
For your safety read before operating
D DO NOT remove the control panel cover unless
the oven is unplugged.

Cleaning and Preventative Maintenance
CLEANING THE OVEN
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
Stainless steel ovens may be kept clean and in
good condition with a light oil.
1. Saturate a cloth, and wipe the oven when it is
cold.
The best preventative maintenance measures are,
the proper installation of the equipment and a pro-
gram for routinely cleaning the ovens.
If maintenance or repairs are required, contact
your local Blodgett service company, a factory
representative or the Blodgett Oven company.
2. Dry the oven with a clean cloth.
On the stainless front or interiors, deposits of
baked on splatter may be removed with any non-
toxic industrial stainless steel cleaner. Heat tint
and heavy discoloration may be removed with any
non-toxic commercial oven cleaner.
WARNING!!
Always disconnect the appliance from the
power supply before servicing or cleaning.
1. Apply cleaners when the oven is cold. Always
rub with the grain of the metal.
Cleaning interior parts
1. Remove the racks from the oven.
2. Soak the racks in a solution of ammonia and
water.
3. Reinstall after cleaning.
