Figure 15. Glass and Gasket Replacement
Glass Removal or Replacement
The glass may be removed with the door in place.
1. Hold the glass in place while you remove the glass clips
from the inside of the door. Lift the glass panel off of
the two bottom tabs in the door.
2. Center the new glass panel over the gasket and reinstall
the glass clips.
See figure 14
.
3. It may be necessary to retighten the glass clips after the
stove has be burned and the gasketing has been seated.
Important:
It is extremely important to tighten the
glass clips gradually and alternately. Uneven or too great
pressure can damage the glass.
Chimney System
The Jøtul F
100
is designed to burn cleanly and efficiently
when used according to the guidelines in this manual. In
order to maintain proper performance, you should inspect
the chimney and chimney connector at the beginning of
each heating season and then, twice a month during the
heating season. Clean the chimney whenever creosote
and fly ash accumulation exceeds 1/4 inch in any part of
the system.
Chimney brushes are available from your local Jøtul dealer
or hardware supply store. Your dealer can also refer you to
a reputable, professional chimney sweep who will have all
the equipment to ensure a complete and proper job. Failure
to keep the chimney system free of creosote and build up
could result in a serious chimney fire.
Maintenance
Ash Removal
Ash removal will be required periodically, depending
on how frequently the stove is used. Avoid letting
the ash accumulate to spill over the Ash Fettle. For
your protection, always wear safety gloves when
handling the ashes. Use an ash shovel to remove the
accumulation from the bottom of the firebox. The
Fettle may be lifted from the front of the firebox to
aid in ash removal.
Ashes should only be placed in a metal container
equipped with a tight sealing lid. The container should
be placed on a noncombustible floor or on the ground,
well away from all combustible materials, pending final
disposal. If the ashes are disposed of by burial in soil
or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be kept in
the closed container until all cinders have thoroughly
cooled.
Glass Care
Cleaning
On occasion it will be necessary to clean the carbon
deposits and fly ash off of the glass. If the carbon
and fly ash are allowed to remain on the glass for an
extended period of time it could eventually cause the
glass to become etched and cloudy. Any creosote that
might develop on the glass will burn off during the
next hot fire.
Follow this cleaning procedure:
1. Glass needs to be completely cool.
2. Only use a cleaner that is specifically designed for
this purpose. The use of abrasives will damage the
glass and ultimately leave the glass frosted.
3. Rinse and dry glass completely before burning the
stove.
Caution!
Always operate the door slowly and carefully
to avoid cracking or breaking the glass. Never use
the door to push wood into the firebox. If the glass
becomes cracked or broken follow the replacement
procedure below.
Never operate the stove with a cracked or broken glass
panel.
Important:
Replace glass only with ceramic glass panel
specifically designed for the Jøtul F
100
. Do not use
substitutes. Replacement glass is available from your
local Jøtul dealer.
