Classic With Blower Installation and Operation Manual

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. Air tightness 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.
