6.5 Glass Care
Cleaning
While the air wash and high temperatures of normal
operation will combine to keep the glass free of
heavy deposits, it will occasionally be necessary to
clean carbon and fly ash off the glass. If allowed to
remain for an extended period of time, these deposits
can eventually cause the glass surface to become
etched and cloudy.
• USE ONLY AMMONIA-FREE, NON-ABRASSIVE STOVE
GLASS CLEANER
• DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN HOT GLASS.
• CLEAN GLASS ONLY AT ROOM TEMPERATURE.
Glass Replacement
/ See Fig. 15
1. Remove the doors from the stove and place on a flat
surface.
2. Carefully remove all of the glass clips from the inside
of the door.
3. Gently remove all pieces of the glass panel and gasket.
4. Remove all remaining gasket remnants with a wire
brush.
5. Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the
new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket
rope.
6. Important: Gradually tighten the glass clips in an
alternating pattern as you would tighten the lugs on
an automobile wheel.
6.6 Gaskets
Check door and glass panel gaskets for tightness.
To check the seal of the front door, close and latch
the door on a dollar bill and slowly try to pull the
dollar bill free. If it can be easily removed, the seal is
too loose. Check several spots around the door, and
repeat the procedure on the ash pan door as well.
Gasket Replacement
Universal Wood Stove Gasket Kit #157050 is available
from your dealer to replace all the gaskets in the
F 500 V3. Self-adhesive gaskets do not require cement
for installation.
1. Use pliers and a putty knife to remove the old gasket
from the door.
2. Thoroughly clean the channel with a wire brush.
3. Apply a small bead of cement to the channel.
4. Gently press the new gasket into the cement
to seat it in the channel. Close and latch
the door and then reopen. Wipe any excess
cement squeezed out from around the gasket.
