GENERAL INFORMATION
This construction manual contains information regarding the construction of a support base and assembly
of your PRIMA 120 AOS Oven. The foundation and base provide a support structure for the oven and serve
as a wood storage compartment. Concrete masonry units (CMU’s), cast-in-place concrete or similar materials
are typically used to construct the base on a poured-in-place, reinforced concrete foundation. Consult your
Architect, Designer, Engineer, or Masonry Contractor for more specic design and construction criteria.
WARNINGS
Failure to follow instructions will void manufacture’s warranty and may result in property damage,
bodily injury, or even death. If this oven is not properly installed, a re may result. To reduce the risk of
re, follow the installation instructions.
A major cause of oven-related res is failure to maintain required clearances (air spaces) to
combustible materials. It is of utmost importance that this oven be installed only in accordance with
these instructions. For indoor installations, do not pack the required 2” air spaces with insulation or
other material.
Contact local building or re ocials concerning any installation restrictions or need for inspection of
the oven installation.

INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
Construct 6” min. reinforced concrete foundation
on top of 6” aggregate base and 95% compacted
native soil. (See Step 1 for a typical cross section.)
Footing dimensions are 12” x 12”.
STEP 2
Construct 2 side walls and 1 back wall using 6” concrete
blocks (or other) with #4 rebar at 16”o.c. The height for this
rst block layer is typically 35”. Note that the stated height of
the base has been formulated for use by individuals 5’6” to
5’9” in height. If elevation adjustments are desired, modify
the height of the lower base only (the wood storage area).
Contractor to verify height of nal installation with the owner.

Using refractory mortar, place each oor element in the following succession (Item 1 thru 10). Floor pieces
should t together as snug as possible.
Note:Duetothehandmadecharacteristicsofthisproduct,a1/8”gapmayexistbetweenoorelements.
DO NOT mortar or grout in between the oor element joints.
The natural gap between oor elements is designed to allow for thermal expansion.

STEP 2 MORTARING THE FLOOR continued
STEP 3 CROWN ASSEMBLY
First, place and interconnect the crown elements (Items A and H) around the oor elements.
(Item B and C must slide into item A). All other items overlap each other. You may use a small pry bar at
base to manipulate into place the dome pieces on the exterior of the dome.
DO NOT place mortar in the crown element joints.
A small gap of roughly ¼”– ½”will also exist between the oven oor and crown elements.

STEP 4 MORTARING CROWN BASE
Wet sponge joints. Apply refractory mortar to the outside base of crown elements.
(Approximately 3” wide x ½” thick over the outside perimeter).
STEP 5 MORTARING CROWN JOINTS
Wet sponge joints. Apply refractory mortar over the joints. (Approximately 4” wide x ½” thick over
each joint). Do not allow mortar to enter joints.
