Section 1 - Overview
1. Overview
The oven installation index is listed to make the most efficient use of time. For instance,
mounting the burner is listed after the burner box is completed so the plumber can run
the gas pipe while the rest of the oven is assembled.
Two people can build an oven but it is much easier with three (four for larger ovens).
Please read all the assembly instructions before starting. Getting started right can make all
the difference in how smoothly the installation goes.
Be sure your electrician sees the sections that have components that require wiring.
I have made notes about important details and marked them as “Important Note” throughout
these instructions. Please pay special attention to these.
You should schedule ahead to have us come to fire the oven, you must have someone familiar
with industrial burners on-site when the oven is ready to fire.
Our powder coating cure ovens are built of 4” thick, tongue and groove insulated oven panels.
We add an interior structure to support the re-circulating blower, a frame for the fan and burner
box, structure to attach the wall and roof panels, and a channel for air distribution.
Air is drawn through the oven into the burner box, past the burner, through the re-circulating
blower, and into the air distribution channel in the top of the oven. The hot air comes out
through a series of slots in the top of the oven. These slots are sized to provide even airflow
through the oven.
The oven also includes an exhaust fan that exhausts any smoke, draws the right amount of
fresh air into the oven through the fresh air vent and maintains a slight negative pressure
inside the oven.
The oven control system incorporates safety controls to verify the blowers are operating, the
door is closed, and that the temperature in the oven does not exceed the design limits.
The burner control system is a full modulating type and incorporates safety features to assure
safe operation.
In operation, the control box sends a signal to the burner control to initialize the burner when
all safety circuits have been verified. When the burner establishes a pilot flame and the safety
circuits in the burner control are proved, the main flame will light. When the control box
receives the signal that the main flame is established, it sends a signal to the modulating gas
valve to adjust the flame as needed to reach and maintain the set temperature. The oven
timer starts when the oven temperature reaches the set point and times down until the cycle is
completed. The operator can store 15 “recipes” for cure cycles.
Important Note: All dimensions are in Feet, Inches, and fractions of an inch. We have
discovered that kids are not being taught how to read a ruler in school any more. If you have
young person helping you, please take time to give them a lesson in how to read a ruler.

A stripped screw is just plugging a hole. Use care when
driving screws with a drill. In some places you will be
going through several layers of metal and may have to
“pre-drill” with a 3/16“ bit. In other places you will be
going through a single layer of 20 gauge metal.

Insulation
All male panel edges, bottoms, and tops, get
insulation.
This is important and easy to forget, especially
in the bottom edge of the panels. Check and
double check each panel as you go.
Two kinds of insulation are shipped with the oven.
Use the precut strips for the panel edges. You
should trim the width of these strips to fit snuggly
in the male edge of every panel. The strips will fit
without trimming in the top and bottom. Save the
thicker uncut pieces for later. You will use them in
the wall to roof panel joints, the vertical joints at
the back corners, and in the door frame.
Hint: This is Rockwool insulation and does not
itch like fiberglass BUT DON’T wipe your face Use a straight edge kitchen knife or an electric fillet knife
after handling it! Rinse off with cool water after and straight edge to cut block insulation.

Wear Gloves!!!
Hint: Wal-Mart sells this electric fillet knife to cut the block insulation and trim the strips. It
works great but remember it is really sharp! You can do some serious damage to yourself if you
get careless.

Section 10 - Walls Pg:1
Use a block of wood and a shot hammer to tap panels in place if needed. A gentle tug
with a load strap can also be very helpful if panels are really tight. Check the
dimension between the leading edges of each panel to maintain panel spacing.
Put one ladder inside and one outside to make things go a little quicker.
The holes in the air channel are About 3/4” to 7/8” from the visible panel joint.
At this point the panels are overlapped so you are drilling through 5 layers of
panel metal. Pre-drill these hole before trying to run screws in. This provides
support for the air channel.

Section 11 - Roof Pg:1
Check to make sure diagonals are the same from the back corners of the oven to the front corners of the panel
you are working on. The oven roof must be kept square as you go. The panel joints should be even so if you
need to adjust the diagonals just slide the panel slightly to one side or the other to keep the roof square.
It is a good idea to put up a couple of the air distribution channels to hold the oven walls the right distance apart.
From the top side of the panels, put a screw about 12“ in from each end in the panel joint then put one about
every 24”. Use the same pattern to screw the inside joints. We use more screws in the roof joints to keep the
joints from spreading when the electricians and others are walking on top of the oven. Make sure the dimension
between the walls is the same as at the burner box frame then run screws through the top flange of the air
channel into the roof panels.

Drop in hinge pins then remove the 2 x 4 so the door drops down onto hinges.
Screw on the spring loaded door casters as shown on your plan.
Install the door handles at a comfortable height.
Door Gasket
Remove about 2” of the springy metal inside the tadpole gasket and fold the gasket back into
itself then staple the end closed. This makes a nice neat end for the gasket.
The edge of the gasket bulb should end up a little inside the edge of the door.
Apply door gasket cement about 2-3 feet at a time and fasten with large head rivets supplied.
The LEFT door gets gasket on the hinge side and top ONLY!
Leave about 5-6” of gasket hanging out from the top of the left door where the doors meet.
Use this to make the seal between the doors at the top when the doors are closed.
Just loop it back to the left door so enough gasket extends past the door to seal to the right
door and rivet it in place.
The RIGHT door gets gasket on the hinge side, top, and left side.
When bending the gasket around the corners DO NOT cut the gasket! Just gently bend the
gasket around the corner into a comfortable radius and let the flange material overlap.
Install12-Doors.ppp
Section 12 - Doors Pg:3
The door stop angle goes on the left door. It is installed after the door gasket is put on to seal
the doors in the center where they meet.
Hold the door stop in place from inside the oven with the doors closed and compress the gas-
ket just a little.
Make a mark on the door stop so you can open the doors and attach the door stop.
The idea is to adjust the door stop for any misalignment of the doors so you get a good seal.

System Start-Up
You must arrange to have a qualified burner technician on site when you are ready to fire the burner.
The gas pressure must be checked and verified that it is within the proper range for the burner before opening the
gas valve to the burner. High gas pressure can damage components and is not covered by warranty .
When your burner technician is on site, call us if you need any assistance.
Important Note:
Important information is
contained in your Parts
Book from the burner
manufacturer. Be sure to
provide this to the burner
technician.
The gas valve must travel from the low fire set screw to the high fire set screw.
Adjust the low fire screw to achieve a steady small flame and high fire to assure the gas valve is full open.
The zero set point and travel for the modulating motor have been set, but sometimes they need to be readjusted
to make sure the gas valve achieves full travel. These adjustments are made by removing the top cover of the
modulating motor. Move the adjusting screws in very small increments! You must be able to drive the burner to
high fire to make this adjustment.
With the control panel on and the burner initialized, the burner can be modulated by setting the temperature set
point higher or lower.
The control panel shows the maximum burner rate as %100. This is high fire. You can watch the modulator motor
to make sure the burner is at high fire.
The air shutter linkage has been set to allow full travel of the gas valve.
The low fire screw and high fire set screw are usually threaded about 1/4” through the stop casting.
If the light on either gas pressure switch is on, the switch is faulted and must be reset. Correct the problem and
push the reset button. The switches should be set to fault if the gas pressure goes out of the normal range for the
burner.
