10.1.3 Door adjustment
In order to burn at its best efficiency, the furnace door must provide a perfect seal with the
firebox. The tightness of the door seal can be verified by closing and latching the door on a
strip of paper. The test must be performed all around the door. If the paper slips out easily
anywhere, either adjust the door or replace the gasket.
Door adjustment procedure:
1. Unscrew the locking pin (B) and nut (A) from the door.
2. To increase the pressure of the door on the gasket, turn the handle. Counter-clockwise,
to reduce the pressure of the door on the cord, turn the handle clockwise to clockwise.
3. Finally, screw-in the locking pin (B) about 1/4" (6 mm) deep and make sure you lock it
with the nut (A). If after adjustment the door is not tight, replace the door gasket.
