f- Whenever fuel is added, the fire may be poked and stirred with a wood handling tool. This will allow air to move through the fuel bed for proper combustion.

g- When oven is heated to cooking temperature, move wood and ash to the rear and sides of the oven to clear the hearth for cooking product. Insert ash barrier in front of burning wood. This is to separate the cooking area from the ash and wood. Clean cooking area as described in the DISPOSAL OF ASHES section before commencing cooking procedures. Food must be placed on an appropriate cooking pan before being set into the oven.

h- When finished cooking, spread remaining embers on the floor of the oven hearth. Close door against door opening. This will clean the oven floor.

9.CAUTION: Many structure fires have resulted when a fire has been left unattended for an extended period of time such as when "Banking" a fire for a long overnight burn. This oven is intended for attended operation only. Trained personnel must attend and closely supervise the oven at all times during firing.
