Installation & Operation Manual
1. DESCRIPTION
The XLT TS/TS2 series of ovens consist of six models; the 1832-TS/TS2, the 2440-TS/TS2,
3240-TS/TS2, the 3255-TS/TS2, the 3270-TS/TS2, and the 3870-TS/TS2. The first two
digits of the model number represent the conveyor width, and the second two digits indicate
the bake chamber length. Ovens with a longer bake chamber length have a higher cooking
capacity. The TS/TS2 designation represents the fact that the ovens are triple-stackable. The
ovens may be used in a single oven stack, a double oven stack, or a triple oven stack. A
single stack or double stack oven can be upgraded by adding another oven deck or two up to
the maximum of three. All ovens are gas-fired and are available in Natural gas or LP
(Propane) gas models. (Electric ovens are also available). The 3270-TS/TS2 and
3870-TS/TS2 models have two burners, one right hand and one left hand. They also have
two control boxes, again one right and one left. The other models have only a single right
hand burner with a single right hand control box. All models can have the optional split belt
conveyor.
Figure 1: Examples of Single, Double, and Triple Stack Ovens
Food product is placed on the stainless steel wire conveyor belt on one side of the oven. The
conveyor then transports the food through the bake chamber at a user-controlled speed. This
provides repeatable and uniform food cooking. The conveyors can be easily configured to
move either left-to-right or right-to-left. A large center sandwich door allows the
introduction or removal of food items for cooking at shorter times. Temperatures up to
550°F inside the oven are achieved by means of a user-adjustable digital control.
An easily removable front panel allows the full cleaning of the oven interior. All exposed
oven surfaces both exterior and interior are constructed of stainless steel. The conveyor is a
one piece design and is removed from the right side of the oven. No tools are required for
disassembly and cleaning of the conveyor or oven interior. The oven itself is mounted on
lockable swivel casters for easy moving and maintenance. Examples of single, double and
triple stack ovens are shown in Figure 1. An oven drawing with nomenclature is shown in
Figure 2.

2. OPERATOR CONTROLS
The operator controls for the ovens are located on the
Control Box which is on the right side of the oven. The
fan, burner, and conveyor switches with the operating
instructions are shown in Figure 5. Also nearby are the
temperature control, the conveyor control, and the fuse
bank, (see Figure 6).
The 3270-TS/TS2 and 3870-TS/TS2 ovens have an
additional Control Box on the left side, (see Figure 7).
The duplicate oven Switch Panels on these models
allow the oven to be operated from either side of the
oven.

Figure 6: Right Hand Side Control Panel (All Models)
All XLT ovens have a right hand side Control Panel. The fuses are located on the Control
Panels and are labeled for their function and replacement part number. It is very important to
use only the fuses listed. Using larger or smaller fuses than what is labeled on the oven can
cause serious damage to the operator and/or the oven and will also void any and all
warranties. See Figure 6.
A conveyor control is located at the top of the panel, and a temperature control is located
mid-panel. A cooling fan with washable filter is near the bottom of the panel. The filter is
held in place by a snap-on fan guard.

Figure 7: Left Hand Side Control Panel (3270-TS/TS2 and 3870-TS/TS2)
3270-TS/TS2 and 3870-TS/TS2 ovens also have a left hand side Control Panel. This panel
houses the fuses for the equipment inside the left hand control box. A second temperature
control is also used for controlling the burner on the left half of the oven. This allows for two
different temperature zones within these ovens for cooking flexibility, with a maximum
delta of 50º F. Another cooling fan is near the bottom of the panel. See Figure 7.

Installation & Operation Manual
3. OPERATION
The XLT oven is a convection oven. It cooks foods by forcing hot air to circulate around the
food, thereby increasing the heat transfer rate. Convection ovens generally cook foods faster
than conventional ovens. The XLT oven models also have a conveyor that carries food
through the oven at a uniform rate. This helps eliminate under or over cooking food.

5. INSTALLATION
5.1. INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
The following is an overview of the installation process.
1. Read this manual thoroughly.
2. Make sure all electric, gas, and ventilation utilities are adequately sized and in place
before the oven arrives.
3. Inspect the oven and crates for freight damage upon arrival. Assemble the oven on its
base near the area of intended usage. Remove all combustibles and obstructions from
the area.
4. Have your plumber make all gas connections per local building codes. Provide
adequate clearance to access the gas shut off valve. Check for leaks!
5. Have your electrician make all electrical connections per local codes. Provide
adequate clearance to access the electrical plug and receptacle.
6. Install a restraint device and make sure that it guards against transmission of strain to
the gas line and electric cord.
7. Test the exhaust hood using a smoke candle to determine the amount of combustion
products removed.
5.2. PURCHASER’S RESPONSIBILITY
Note: All installations must conform to local building and mechanical codes.
It is the responsibility of the purchaser:
1. To see that the gas and electric utilities are installed on site in accordance with local
mechanical codes and with the specification in this manual.
2. To unload, uncrate, move, and assemble the oven(s) in their intended location.
3. To see that the gas and electric utilities are connected properly and using the proper

5.3. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
These ovens come completely assembled from the factory except for the Back Wall
Stand-offs and Product Stops. Back wall stand-offs are attached to the conveyor belt for
shipping purposes only. They must be removed prior to oven start-up. The stand-offs
are designed to provide adequate clearance between the back of the oven and a wall. To
assemble the stand-offs, loosen the appropriate bolts in the back wall and insert the
stand-off tab underneath the flat washers of the back wall bolts. Tighten the bolts. The
product stops are shipped loose inside the oven. Remove them prior to start and install
on the exit end of the conveyor. Detailed assembly instructions are available, contact
XLT Customer Service.
XD9010-TS Rev D 07/2008 18
Installation & Operation Manual
5.4. PHYSICAL LOCATION & SPACING REQUIREMENTS
It is best to install ovens adjacent to a wall. It is possible to install an oven in the middle
of a room, but due to the routing of gas and electric lines, and ventilation hood
performance, these installations can be more costly. The utility rough-in information is
shown on page 27.
These ovens are suitable for installation on combustible floors. The minimum clearance
from the back is 6" and is determined by the back wall standoffs that are included with
the oven. The standoffs are intended for use with either combustible or noncombustible
walls. The minimum side clearances are 6". See Section 7. Rough-In for gas and
electrical connections.
5.5. ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
All XLT ovens require a 120VAC power supply. See General Specifications Chart for
the electrical power requirements.
WARNING Electrical Grounding Instructions
This appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection
against shock hazard and should be plugged into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
When installed, the appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2, as applicable.
5.6. GAS SUPPLY
The gas supply shall have a gas meter and regulator large enough to handle all of the gas
appliances, such as the furnace, hot water heater, and oven(s), in operation at the same
time. Add up all of the Btu ratings to determine the total load.
The installation must conform with local building codes, or in the absence of local
codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1, latest version, Natural Gas
Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1, or the Propane Installation Code, CAN/CGA-
B149.2, as applicable, including:
1. The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures
in excess of ½-psi (3.45-kPa).
2. The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shutoff valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply
piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½-psi (3.45-kPa).
XD9010-TS Rev D 7/2008
Installation & Operation Manual
19
5.7. CASTERS
Because the oven(s) are equipped with casters, the installation must be made with a
connector that complies with the Standard for Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances,
ANSI Z21.69 or Connectors for Moveable Gas Appliances CAN/CGA-6.16, and a
quick-disconnect device that complies with the Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices
for Use With Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41, or Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use With Gas
Fuel, CAN1-6.9.
5.8. RESTRAINT
For all installations, a restraint must be provided to limit the movement of the oven
without depending on the gas connector and the quick-disconnect device or its
associated piping, and/or the electric cord, to limit the oven movement. The restraint
must be connected to the eye bolt which is supplied with the oven. The eye bolt is in the
lowest hole in the back wall on the control end of the oven. Upon completion of
performing any service functions that require removal of the restraint, insure that it is
correctly re-attached to the oven (see Figure 15). One restraint is required per oven
stack.
Figure 13: Restraint view
5.9. VENTILATION
5.9.1. VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
Most gas burning appliances produce carbon monoxide, a poison. This and the heat
generated must be vented to the outside. A ventilation hood is required to remove the
heat and products of combustion. The hood and HVAC installation must meet local
building and mechanical codes. Requirements vary throughout the country depending
XD9010-TS Rev D 07/2008 20
Installation & Operation Manual
on the location by city, county, and/or state. Obtain information from the authority
having jurisdiction to determine the requirements for your installation. Your ventilation
hood supplier and HVAC contractor should be contacted to provide guidance. A
properly engineered and installed ventilation hood and HVAC system will expedite
approval, reduce oven maintenance cost, and provide a more comfortable working
environment. Keep the appliance area free from ventilation obstructions. Proper
ventilation is the oven owner’s responsibility. For the state of Massachusetts, and
possibly other locations, the exhaust fan must be interconnected with the ovens so that
the ventilation hood is operating before the ovens are allowed to operate.
5.9.2. VENTILATION GUIDELINES
A ventilation hood that extends at least 12" from each side of oven or conveyor and at
least 6" from the front must be used. Also, at least one fan must be used to exhaust heat
and CO. The ventilation hood must operate in harmony with the building’s HVAC
system. The ventilation hood is replacing and replenishing air while the HVAC system
is re-circulating air. A proper balance between replacing air and re-circulating air is
desired. If the exhaust fan removes too much air from the kitchen, this will force the
HVAC system to condition more air than necessary. Conversely, if the exhaust fan
removes too little air, then heat, CO, and products of combustion will accumulate inside
the building. The volume of air that goes into the building and the volume going out of
the building must be balanced or metered in the proper proportion to provide a safe,
comfortable, and economical environment. A belt driven exhaust fan is preferable to a
direct driven exhaust fan in that a belt drive unit can be readily adjusted by changing the
diameter of the drive and driven pulleys in order to move more or less air.
5.9.3. VENTILATION PERFORMANCE TEST
After the oven and ventilation hood have been installed and are operating, a smoke
candle can be used to “see” if the heat and products of combustion are being properly
exhausted. These smoke candles can be purchased through HVAC contractors. The test
procedure is outlined below.
1. The oven must be operating at 450º- 500º F.
2. The conveyor must be turned off.
3. The ventilation hood exhaust fan must be turned on.
4. Wear gloves to prevent burns to your hands.
5. Put the candle on a pan.
6. Open the sandwich door.
7. Light the candle and immediately place the pan w/candle on the conveyor
belt at the center of the oven.
8. Close the sandwich door.
9. Observe the smoke pattern coming out of the oven.
The ventilation hood must capture all of the smoke from the oven.

5.9.4. HOOD INTERCONNECTION
The following is a recommended method of providing an interlock system, (if required); between
the ventilation fan in the hood and the XLT gas ovens.
The circuit shown will stop the ovens from operating if the ventilation fan fails and also prevent
the ovens from starting if the ventilation fan is not first operating.
It is recommended that the fan interlock switch be located on the ventilation fan itself rather than
the motor to prevent a false run signal in the case of a broken fan drive belt.
It is the customer’s responsibility to have the interlock system installed by a licensed electrician
and that it meets all required local codes.
See oven rough-in requirements for receptacle requirement.
5.9.5. FIRE SUPPRESSION
On the XLT series of impinger ovens, the heat source is located in an isolated heat
exchanger area. Due to this isolation, impinger style conveyor ovens do not fall under the
same fire suppression requirements as commercial cooking devices that do expose
products to direct flame.
CAUTION:
Always use the proper oven shut down procedure for turning ovens off. Do
not turn off ventilation fan until cool down sequence on oven is completed.
The use of the ventilation fan control to shut off ovens manually, may void
warranty on ovens
XD9010-TS Rev D 07/2008 22
Installation & Operation Manual
Under the NFPA 96 these ovens should be considered bakery type ovens. In the
rare event fire protection has been required it is recommended that the fire protection be
installed as noted below. This will provide the required protection without affecting oven
function or cleaning.
Fire Suppression plumbing may be installed as required by local code. Right & Left Hand
shown. Install if/as required by code. These drawings represent placement of a typical piping
style. Clearance dimensions are recommended minimums to accommodate most installation.

5.10. MAINTENANCE
The most critical item to be maintained is the filter on the cooling fan (see Figure 6 , page 7).
The filter is held in place by a snap-on fan guard and can be washed several times. Regular
cleaning of the control box fan filters is important to maintaining air circulation within the
control box. Air circulation will help extend the life of components and avoid oven down
time. Depending upon store conditions, this filter should be cleaned weekly or as it gets
clogged with dust. After several cleanings the filter will need replacement. These can be
ordered directly from XLT at 888 443-2751 or can be purchased from your local Grainger
store; part number 4YD83 or 4YD84. Remember, the cleaner the filter, the cooler the
control box components will be, resulting in longer component life.

Contact BOFI, a factory representative, or a local service company to perform all other
maintenance and repairs.
5.11. CLEANING
NOTICE: If the oven is to be removed from its installed location for cleaning or servicing
the following procedure is to be implemented:
1. Shut off main manual gas valve.
2. Unplug electric cord.
3. Unplug gas line.

6. TOUBLESHOOTING
6.1. COOKING PROBLEMS
Experimentation is about the only way to determine proper time and temperature
settings. While a pizza may look perfectly cooked on the outside, the inside may be
undercooked. A thermometer is necessary to determine if food items are being properly
cooked. Most health departments have rules and regulations that establish minimum
temperatures for internal food temperatures. Most operators want to cook foods as fast
as possible in order to serve more customers per hour. However, cooking foods slower
is the only way to achieve a proper internal temperature. If your food products look
acceptable on the outside, but have an internal temperature that is too low, then lowering
the temperature and decreasing the belt speed (thereby increasing the cook time), will be
necessary.
Several factors may affect the cooking performance and characteristics:
1. Oven temperature (generally effects color)
2. Conveyor speed (generally effects doneness)
3. Finger arrangement
4. Altitude
5. Pans versus screens
6. Dough thickness
7. Cheese type
8. Raw ingredient temperature (frozen?)
9. Quantity of toppings
XLT ovens can be configured to cook a wide variety of food items. This is
accomplished by arranging the fingers to control the baking characteristics. Generally
speaking, most cooking is a “bottom up” process. The hot air from the bottom row of
fingers has to go through the conveyor (a distance of about 2"), heat the pan or screen,
and then actually cook raw dough. The hot air from the top, on the other hand, basically
only has to melt cheese and re-heat precooked toppings. Consequently, most operators
will use the oven with the fingers arranged so that a lot more air is directed to the bottom
of the pizza than to the top. There are places for an equal number of fingers above and
below the conveyor. Available are finger cover plates that have six rows of holes, four
rows of holes, two rows of holes, and no holes (or blank cover plates). A typical finger
arrangement might have most or even all fingers on the bottom “full open”, that is
fingers with all six rows of holes, and only two or three fingers on top with four or six
rows of holes. The top fingers can be arranged in a symmetrical pattern or can be shifted
asymmetrically to either the entrance or exit end of the conveyor.
We encourage you to experiment by trying different finger arrangements, temperatures,
and belt speeds. BOFI can assist you with your oven/product configurations.

6.2. OVEN PROBLEMS
When you suspect that something is wrong with the oven, BOFI is committed to helping
you get your oven back in working order as soon as possible. Verify the following items
and then contact us before performing maintenance and repairs. Electrical diagrams are
located on page 28-30, and on the inside surface of the operator control panel lid.
1. Oven is plugged in to the electrical receptacle.
2. Circuit breakers in the building are on – not tripped.
3. Gas valve(s) are on.
4. Gas hose quick-disconnect is properly connected.
5. Air is purged from the gas line(s).
6. All fuses have been visually inspected.

7. ROUGH-IN
The gas supply and the electrical supply are to be
provided by the customer prior to installation.
The picture above shows a typical utility rough-in
for a triple stack oven. Preparing the utilities this
way allows for an easy third deck addition if a double stack oven is initially installed.
All installations must conform to local building and mechanical codes. Read and follow
the Installation and Operation Manual for the model of oven to be installed. It is required that
the ovens be placed under a ventilation hood to provide exhaust ventilation and adequate air
supply.
The gas supply should have a gas meter and regulator large enough to handle all of the gas
appliances, such as the furnace, hot water heater, and ovens, in operation at the same time.
Add up all of the BTU ratings to determine the total load. (See chart for supply requirements).
The electrical service should be three 20 amp 120V single phase circuits (2 poles with ground).
This provides a separate circuit breaker and single receptacle for each oven deck. The use of
single receptacles eliminates the possibility of plugging an additional device into oven circuit
and will in most jurisdictions eliminate need for a ground fault receptacle. If possible, leave
room to the right of the ovens for easy access and connection of gas and electric lines. The
electrical outlets (Item 1) can also be located to the left of the gas line. The oven electrical
plugs are the NEMA 5-15 straight blade type with 8 foot long cords
