A. Door Seal & Door Catch Adjustment
To replace any of the door seals, remove the old sealing rope from the door and clean
any cement & dirt from the rope groove. Run a line of cement along the rope groove
on the back face of the door and refit a required length of Ø9.5mm (J00003AXX) into
the groove with the joint kept to the bottom centre of the door. The effectiveness of
the door seal can be checked by placing a piece of paper between the front & door and
close the door (see Figure 4.1). If the paper can be easily removed the door is not
sealing correctly and some further adjustments may need to be made as follows:
1. Door Catch Adjustment
The door latch is fitted with washers between the latch & the back of the door
casting (see Figure 4.2). To adjust the door latch tightness remove the desired
number of washers & fit them to the nut side of the catch, checking the door seal
on all sides with the paper seal test after each adjustment.
Figure 4.1
2. Door Seal only Making on 2/3 Sides of Door
In the event of the door not sealing at certain points on the circumference of the
seal it may be necessary to increase the seal thickness at these points. This can be
done by removing the rope from the groove at the relevant section of the seal and
fitting a section of 12mm thermotape (J00001AXX) into the groove and refitting
the rope over the tape section using cement (see Figure 4.3).
