INSTALLING GLASS DOORS
Spring clips have been installed but some adjustments may be
needed. Install the doors using the following steps:
1. With bifold doors completely folded, insert bottom pivot pin into
pivot hole located near bottom corner of front face opening and
swing door to vertical position making sure top pins slide into door
track. Door is installed when top door pin snaps into spring clip.
2. Repeat step 1 for remaining door.
If you find the doors do not close properly or do not appear level or
straight, proceed with section on door adjustment,
DOOR ADJUSTMENT
Remove doors and slightly loosen lower pivot clips and upper spring
clips. Replace doors and fully close them. Use 1/8" shims (any mate
-
rial) to level doors. Once proper setting is achieved, carefully open
doors enough so that you can access spring clips with a phillips
screwdriver. Tighten screws. See Figure 33.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
GLASS DOORS
Glass doors are optional with the fireplace. When fireplace is in operation,
doors must be fully opened or fully closed position only or a fire hazard
may be created (see Figure 34).
A fireplace equipped with glass doors operates much differently than a
fireplace with an open front. A fireplace with glass doors has a limited
amount of air for combustion.
Excessive heat within the fireplace can result if too large a fire is built or
if combustion air gate is not completely open. The following tips should
be followed to assure that both the fireplace and glass door retain their
beauty and function properly. Both the flue damper and glass doors
must be fully opened before starting fire. This will provide sufficient
combustion air and maintain safe temperatures in firebox.
IMPORTANT:
The glass must be allowed to warm slowly and evenly.
The tempered glass will withstand a gradual temperature rise to 550° F,
which is more than a normal fire will generate. Such materials as pitch/
wax laden logs, very dry mill end lumber and large amounts of paper or
cardboard boxes can create an excessively hot fire and should not be
burned in this fireplace. Always keep the fire well back from the doors
and never allow flames to contact the glass.
WARNING: Fireplaces equipped with glass doors
should be operated only with doors fully opened or
doors fully closed. Doors, if left partly open, may draw
gas and flame out of the fireplace opening creating
risks of both fire and smoke.
