7. Maintenance/Parts Replacement
7.1
Replacement
The glass used is a ceramic glass, 5/32" (4 mm) thick, 16 3/4"L x 9 5/8"H x 10 3/4"H (425 mm
x 244 mm x 273 mm), tested to reach temperatures up to 1400º F. If the glass breaks, it must
be replaced by a ceramic glass from SCHOTT with the same specification. Contact your dealer
to obtain a genuine replacement part.
WARNING : DO NOT USE SUBSTITUTE MATERIALS WHEN REPLACING THE GLASS.
To remove or replace the glass (D):
1.
Remove the door (E) from its hinges and lay it on a soft, flat surface.
2.
Remove the eight screws (A), the eight glass retainers (B), and the metal frames (C).
3.
Remove the glass (D). If it is damaged install a new one in place. The replacement glass must
have a gasket all around (see procedure below).
4.
Reinstall the glass, being careful to centre the glass in the door and not to over-tightening the
retaining screw.
The two main causes of broken door glass are uneven placement in the door and over-tightening
the retaining screws.
