Replacing The Glass Gasket And/Or The Glass - Ecomaxx Premium EC00001 Operating & Installation Instructions Manual

5.1.4 REPLACING THE GLASS GASKET AND/OR THE GLASS
It is a good idea to replace the glass gasket when the door gasket is replaced. The gasket is flat,
adhesive‐backed, woven fibreglass. Remove the spring pin (A) from the handle shaft, the nut (B)
and the glass retainer (C). Lift out the glass and pull off the old gasket. This is a good time to clean
the glass thoroughly.
To replace the glass (D), remove the spring pin
(A) from the handle shaft, the nut (B) and the
glass retainer (C). Remove the damaged glass
and install the new one in place. Make sure
you have a gasket around the replacement
glass (see procedure above). Put back the
glass retainer, the nut and the roll pin. Put
back the door frame (E) on the heater.
The gasket must be centred on the edge of the glass. To do this easily, peel back a section of the
paper covering the adhesive and place the gasket on a table with the adhesive side up. Stick the
end of the gasket to the middle of one edge, then press the edge of the glass down onto the
gasket, taking care that it is perfectly centred on the gasket. Peel off more of the backing and
rotate the glass and press the next section onto the gasket. Do not stretch the gasket as you place
it. Continue until you get to the start and trim the gasket to length. Now pinch the gasket to the
glass in a U shape, all around the glass. Reinstall the glass, being careful to centre the glass
carefully in the door. Do not over‐tighten the screws. Note that the two main causes of broken
door glass are uneven placement in the door and over‐tightening of retaining screws.
Do not abuse the glass door by striking or slamming shut. DO NOT USE THE WOOD FIRE IF THE
GLASS IS BROKEN. To change the glass, perform the same operation described above.
