Delivery and Location

DELIVERY AND INSPECTION
All Blodgett ovens are shipped in containers to prevent

damage. Upon delivery of your new oven:
• Inspect the shipping container for external damage.

Any evidence of damage should be noted on the

delivery receipt which must be signed by the driver.

• Uncrate the oven and check for internal damage.

Carriers will accept claims for concealed damage if

notified within fifteen days of delivery and the ship-

ping container is retained for inspection.

The Blodgett Oven Company cannot assume responsibil-

ity for loss or damage suffered in transit. The carrier as-

sumed 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.

OVEN LOCATION
The well planned and proper placement of your oven will

result in long term operator convenience and satisfactory

performance.
The following clearances must be maintained between

the oven and any combustible or non-combustible con-

struction.
• Oven body right side - 6” (15cm)
• Oven body left side - 6” (15cm)
• Oven body back - 6” (15cm)
• Oven body bottom - 6” (15cm)
Area must be accessible for proper servicing.

NOTE: On gas models, routine servicing can usually be

accomplished within the limited movement pro-

vided by the gas hose restraint. If the oven needs

to be moved further from the wall, the gas must

first be turned off and disconnected from the oven

before removing the restraint. Reconnect the re-

straint after the oven has been returned to its nor-

mal position.

It is essential that an adequate air supply to the oven be

maintained to provide a sufficient flow of combustion and

ventilation air.
• Place the oven in an area that is free of drafts.
• Keep the oven area free and clear of all combus-

tibles such as paper, cardboard, and flammable

liquids and solvents.

• Do not place the oven on a curb base or seal to a

wall. Either condition will restrict the proper flow of

combustion and ventilation air resulting in damage to

the oven.
