DOOR CATCH
ADJUSTMENT
After a few fires, the door catch may require adjustment to renew a tight seal,
as the door gasket will compress. Removal of a shim, shown in the diagram
below, will allow the catch to be moved closer to the door frame, creating a
tighter seal.
To remove a shim, loosen the 2 bolts to create clearance behind catch. Place
a screwdriver in the slot of the shim and slide out. Retighten bolts.
Note: Keep the shims - they may be required in the future when the gasket
is replaced.
Completely clean out entire unit
Inspect air tube, Catalytic Combustor and bricks
Adjust door catch assembly
Inspect condition and seal of:
Glass Gasket
Door Gasket
Paper Test
Check and lubricate door hinge + latch
Check glass for cracks
Clean blower motor

DOOR HINGE
ADJUSTMENT
If the door hinge ever requires adjustement, ensure that the bolt is put on
hand tight and tightened a further 1/2 turn using a wrench.
Do not overthighten as this can damage the bolt or nutsert.
Note: Some models may only have 1 bolt at the top. This version shows 2
top bolts.
Annual Maintenance
Annually
Replace any damaged parts.
If unable to obtain a tight seal on the door - replace door gasket seal.

doesn't solve the problem replace the door gasket.
