3. Dismount the front glass assembly by releasing
the upper spring clips
– then lift the frame up
and out of the lower mounting points.
4. Dismount the side glass assemblies by
removing the six screws (retain for reassembly)
securing the frame to the firebox. Ensure the
glass doesn’t fall out of the frame during
removal.
5. Remove the glass from the front glass frame by
drilling out the four 1/8” rivets on the upper glass
clips. Push the top of the glass slightly away
from the frame and lift it up above the lower
clips, and then out of the frame, set it aside.
6. Remove the glass from the side frames by lifting
the frame off the glass. You may have to hold
the glass down while pulling up on the frame. Do
this as evenly as possible to avoid bending the
frame, or breaking the glass.
7. Remove the existing gasket from each piece of
glass by grasping one end and pulling firmly.
Clean off as much of the hanging fiber “hairs” as
possible
8. Locate the three pieces of
1” x1/8” flat tape
gasket. Use the two shorter pieces for the side
glass. Peel the adhesive protecting paper away
from one end. Starting at the middle of the
bottom edge of the glass apply the gasket
centered on the edge of the glass. Continue to
wrap the gasket loosely around the edge until
you meet at the starting point. Adjust the gasket
so the ends do not overlap. If the gasket length
is too long, trim the excess. Do not leave ends
with ragged edges.
9. Firmly and evenly, fold the gasket around the
edges of the glass so it lies flat on the surface.
There should be no folds at the corners.
10. Place each gasketed glass back in its frame.
With four new 1/8” rivets reinstall the 2 glass
clips on the front glass frame. The glass
assemblies are now ready to remount on the
unit.
