needed. Install the doors using the following steps:

pivot hole located near bottom corner of front face opening and

swing door to vertical position making sure top pins slide into

door track. Door is installed when top door pin snaps into spring

clip.

2. Repeat step 1 for remaining door.

straight, proceed with section on door adjustment,

DOOR ADJUSTMENT

Remove doors and slightly loosen lower pivot clips and upper spring

clips. Replace doors and fully close them. Use 1/8" shims (any mate-

rial) to level doors. Once proper setting is achieved, carefully open

doors enough so that you can access spring clips with a phillips

screwdriver. Tighten screws. See Figure 42.

GLASS DOORS

Glass doors are optional with the fireplace. When fireplace is in operation,

doors must be fully opened or fully closed position only or a fire hazard

may be created (see Figure 43, page 21).

A fireplace equipped with glass doors operates much differently than a

fireplace with an open front. A fireplace with glass doors has a limited

amount of air for combustion.

Excessive heat within the fireplace can result if too large a fire is built or

if combustion air gate is not completely open. The following tips should

be followed to assure that both the fireplace and glass door retain their

beauty and function properly. Both the flue damper and glass doors must

be fully opened before starting fire. This will provide sufficient combustion

air and maintain safe temperatures in firebox.

IMPORTANT: The glass must be allowed to warm slowly and evenly.

The tempered glass will withstand a gradual temperature rise to 550° F,

Cleaning Glass

Clean glass with any commercial glass cleaner or soap and water. Do

not use any abrasive material to clean glass. Do not clean glass with any

cool water if glass is still hot from the fire and smoke.
