RSF Woodburning Fireplaces
For light buildup, dampen a piece of balled up newspaper and dip it into the fireplace ashes to form a paste. Scrub
the glass with the ash-paste to remove the soot and wipe clean. For heavier buildup, woodstove glass cleaner may
be required.
WARNING:
Never clean the glass with an abrasive cleaner unless specified for that particular use. Use only a
cleaner recommended by your dealer. Never clean the glass while it is hot, a serious burn can result. There are a
number of excellent wood stove glass cleaners available which are far superior to regular glass and oven cleaners
for wood stove applications.
PAINT
WARNING:
Avoid spraying ceramic glass cleaner or other cleaners on the paint of the fireplace. They may
remove the paint and make touchups difficult.
You can touch up the face of the PEARL3600 with
Stove Bright
Metallic Black high temperature paint which is
available at most fireplaces dealers. Follow the directions outlined on the spray can.
DO NOT
attempt to paint the
fireplace while it is still warm. Keep the spray can away from any source of heat or open flame. Ensure that there
is adequate ventilation in the room from the time you start painting until the paint is dry.
Stove Bright
is available in
a wide range of colors if you want to change the color of your PEARL3600.
We recommend that you take the time to protect or remove any item that you do not want to paint such as: the door
glass, the fireplace surroundings, etc.
DOOR ADJUSTMENT
To check for a proper door seal, insert a sheet of paper between the door and the front of the fireplace and latch
the door. Pull gently but firmly on the sheet of paper. If there is resistance on the paper, the adjustment is correct.
Repeat this procedure along all sides of the door.
The most important factor for controlling the burn rate of the PEARL3600 is a good seal on the door gasket. If the
door gasket is worn or damaged to the
point where the seal is not adequate as
described above, then remove and
replace the gasket. Replacement kits are
available from your RSF dealer.
If needed, the hinges can be adjusted to
improve the alignment of the door latch
with respect to the hole in the fireplace
facing, and for easy installation/removal
of the door.
NOTE:
An improperly adjusted door
seal can have a significant effect on the
performance and durability of the
fireplace. A poorly adjusted door can
result in reduced efficiency, over firing,
excessive wood consumption and
premature fireplace failure.
