- Take fireplace door out of carton and remove plastic wrap. CHECK TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL
PARTS ARE ENCLOSED. Contact dealer if parts are missing.
- RIGHT HANDLE ASSEMBLY: Place the #3 steel collar over the #2 steel shank and place the steel
shank through the ½” hole located on the bottom of the right door. Then place first the #9 washer and
then the #4 spring over the ½” shaft sliding it against the cast iron door. Then while supporting the steel
shank underneath with a hammer or such install the #5 expand pin. Note that the #5 expand pin must be
installed facing so that when the door is closed the wooden handle will be facing to the right. SEE THE
ASSEMBLY IN FIG. A&B. To adjust the right door, simply pull on the steel shank to give it a little
spring tension and then tighten the set screw on the steel collar using the #9 allen wrench provided.
Adjust the door so that the handle pulls the door up so that the gasket seals against the door frame. DO
NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE DOOR AS IT WILL TWIST THE CAST FRAME AND COULD CAUSE
GLASS BREAKAGE.
- LEFT HANDLE ASSEMBLY: Place the #3 steel collar over the #6 steel shank and place in the ½” hole
located on the bottom of the right door. Next, place the #7 set screw in the threaded hole directly below
the handle and turn into place. Align the #6 steel shank so that it is at the same angle as the left handle,
facing left. Then tighten the set screw with the #9 allen wrench provided. Finally, slide the #3 steel
collar up against the cast and tighten. (See Fig C)
Note:
After the doors are installed on the fireplace place the spring handle on the door and damper
handles by threading them on the steel shaft. Turn the spring in the clockwise direction and they will
thread onto the shaft.
