Escape 1400 Insert Installation and Operation Manual
Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. Do not use the insert if
the glass is broken.

5.1.3 Door adjustment

In order for your insert to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal
with the firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically to check for a good
seal. The gasket seal can be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment. To
increase the pressure on the gasket, remove one washer (A). To reduce pressure on the
door, when putting a new door gasket for example, put two washers. To adjust:
1. Unscrew the nut.
2. Remove the door latch and the key path pin (B).
3. Remove or add one washer (A) as needed. Keep the removed washer for future
adjustment.
4. Re-install the key path pin in the key-way and slide the latch along it.
5. Secure with the nut.
