DOOR CATCH
ADJUSTMENT
After a few fires, the door catch may require adjustment to renew a tight seal,
as the door gasket will compress. Removal of a shim, shown in the diagram
below, will allow the catch to be moved closer to the door frame, creating a
tighter seal.
To remove a shim, loosen the 2 bolts to create clearance behind catch. Place
a screwdriver in the slot of the shim and slide out. Retighten bolts.
Note: Keep the shims - they may be required in the future when the gasket
is replaced.
