5.1.2 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 increase the pressure
on the gasket, remove one washer (A). To reduce pressure on the door, when putting a new door
gasket for example, put two washers. To adjust:
1. Unscrew the nut.
2. Remove the door latch and the key path pin (B).
3. Remove or add one washer (A) as needed. Keep the removed washer for future
adjustment.
4. Re-install the key path pin in the key-way and slide the latch along it.
5. Secure with the nut.

5.1.3 Replacing the Door Gasket

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.
