REPLACING
THE
GLASS
GASKET
AND/OR
THE
GLASS
It
is
a
good
idea
to
replace
the
glass
gasket
when
the
door
gasket
is
replaced.
The
gasket
is
flat,
adhesive
‐
backed,
woven
fibreglass.
Remove
the
spring
pin
(A)
from
the
handle
shaft,
the
nut
(B)
and
the
glass
retainer
(C).
Lift
out
the
glass
and
pull
off
the
old
gasket.
This
is
a
good
time
to
clean
the
glass
thoroughly.
To
replace
the
glass
(D),
remove
the
spring
pin
(A)
from
the
handle
shaft,
the
nut
(B)
and
the
glass
retainer
(C).
Remove
the
damaged
glass
and
install
the
new
one
in
place.
Make
sure
you
have
a
gasket
around
the
replacement
glass
(see
procedure
above).
Put
back
the
glass
retainer,
the
nut
and
the
roll
pin.
Put
back
the
door
frame
(E)
on
the
heater.
The
gasket
must
be
centred
on
the
edge
of
the
glass.
To
do
this
easily,
peel
back
a
section
of
the
paper
covering
the
adhesive
and
place
the
gasket
on
a
table
with
the
adhesive
side
up.
Stick
the
end
of
the
gasket
to
the
middle
of
one
edge,
then
press
the
edge
of
the
glass
down
onto
the
gasket,
taking
care
that
it
is
perfectly
centred
on
the
gasket.
Peel
off
more
of
the
backing
and
rotate
the
glass
and
press
the
next
section
onto
the
gasket.
Do
not
stretch
the
gasket
as
you
place
it.
Continue
until
you
get
to
the
start
and
trim
the
gasket
to
length.
Now
pinch
the
gasket
to
the
glass
in
a
U
shape,
all
around
the
glass.
Reinstall
the
glass,
being
careful
to
centre
the
glass
carefully
in
the
door.
Do
not
over
‐
tighten
the
screws.
Note
that
the
two
main
causes
of
broken
door
glass
are
uneven
placement
in
the
door
and
over
‐
tightening
of
retaining
screws.
Do
not
abuse
the
glass
door
by
striking
or
slamming
shut.
DO
NOT
USE
THE
WOOD
FIRE
IF
THE
GLASS
IS
BROKEN
.
To
change
the
glass,
perform
the
same
operation
described
above.
