5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps for optimal cooking performance.

1. Fueling the Oven: Using the foldable pellet shovel, add wood pellets or wood chips to the fuel chamber at the rear of the oven. Do not overfill.
2. Ignition: Ignite the fuel using a long lighter or fire starter. Allow the flames to establish.
3. Preheating: Close the oven door and allow the oven to preheat. Monitor the integrated thermometer. The ideal cooking temperature for pizza is approximately 400°C (752°F). Preheating typically takes about 15 minutes to reach this temperature.
4. Adjusting Chimney Cap: The chimney cap can be rotated 90 degrees up or down to help direct smoke away from your cooking area.
5. Cooking Pizza: Once the desired temperature is reached, use the foldable pizza peel to carefully slide your pizza onto the hot cordierite stone inside the oven.
6. Rotation: Pizzas cook very quickly, often in about 90 seconds. Rotate the pizza periodically using the peel to ensure even cooking and a perfectly crispy crust.
7. Removing Pizza: Once cooked, use the pizza peel to remove the pizza from the oven. Place it on the pizza stand for cooling and cutting with the square pizza cutter.

6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your pizza oven.

• Cool Down: Always allow the oven to cool completely before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.
• Ash Removal: Once cool, remove any ash from the fuel chamber using the pellet shovel or a small brush.
• Pizza Stone Cleaning: Scrape off any burnt food residue from the pizza stone. For stubborn stains, heat the stone in the oven to burn off residue, then brush clean. Do not use soap or harsh detergents on the pizza stone, as it is porous and can absorb chemicals.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the oven with a damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent. Ensure the oven is dry before storage.
• Storage: When not in use, store the oven in a dry place. Use the provided weather-resistant cover to protect it from the elements.

7. Troubleshooting

Refer to this section for common issues and their solutions.

• Oven Not Reaching Desired Temperature:
  • Ensure sufficient fuel (wood pellets/chips) is loaded.
  • Check for proper airflow; clear any blockages in the fuel chamber or chimney.
  • Ensure the oven door is closed during preheating.
• Uneven Pizza Cooking:
  • Rotate the pizza frequently during cooking to ensure all sides are exposed to even heat.
  • Allow the oven to fully preheat to the target temperature before inserting the pizza.
• Excessive Smoke:
  • Ensure you are using dry, high-quality wood pellets or chips. Wet fuel produces more smoke.
  • Adjust the chimney cap to improve smoke exhaust.
  • Avoid overfilling the fuel chamber.
