4.1.2 DOOR ADJUSTMENT

In order for your stove to burn at its best efficiency, the door must provide a perfect seal with the

firebox. Therefore, the gasket should be inspected periodically making sure to obtain an air tight

fit. Airtightness can be improved with a simple latch mechanism adjustment. To adjust:

1. Slightly unfasten the bolts (A) using a ratchet and a 3/8" (10 mm) hexagonal socket.

2. Adjust to the desired tension. Increase the mechanism tension by sliding it backward.

3. Fasten the bolts (A)

It is important to maintain the gasket in good condition. After a year or more of use, the door

gasket will compress and become hard, which may allow air to leak past it. You can test the

condition of the door gasket by closing and latching the door on a strip of paper. Test all around

the door. If the paper slips out easily anywhere, it is time to replace the gasket.

Use the correct replacement gasket that you can purchase from your retailer. The diameter and

density of the gasket is important to getting a good seal.

Place the door face‐down on something soft like a cushion of rags or piece of carpet. Remove the

old gasket from the door by pulling and prying it out with an old screw driver. Then use the

screwdriver to scrape the old gasket adhesive from the door. Now run a 1/4" (6 mm) bead of high

temperature silicone in the door gasket groove. Starting from the middle of the hinge side, press

the gasket (B) into the groove. Do not stretch the gasket as you place it. Leave the gasket about

1/2" long when you cut it and press the end into the groove. Tuck any loose fibres under the

gasket and into the silicone. Close the door and do not use the insert for 24 hours.
