Adjusting the Loading Door

The door can be adjusted by changing the number of shims behind the door hinge and the door lock
assembly. The vertical fit of the door to the tub can be altered by loosening the door hinge bolts and
raising or lowering the door before retightening. It is important for the door to be centered on the tub
front. By chalking the front of the tub and closing the door to transfer that line to the gasket, the centering
can be evaluated. It is also important for door pressure to be similar around the door perimeter. Door
pressure can be evaluated by inserting a dollar bill in several positions and tugging on it. See Parts Section
for kit to increase door sealing pressure.

Door hinge mounting bolts penetrate tub
front and require silicone sealer applied to
holes when reinstalling.
