7.
Once the inner dome surface has been cleared, insert the new bypass door gasket retainer assembly
and follow the above instructions in reverse to ensure complete install. Ensure that 1/8” ceramic paper
is in between the gasket retainer assembly and inner dome surface. Also ensure that all nuts are
completely fastened up to the dome bottom. When tightening the 1/4-20 bolt through the bypass door
into the bypass rod bracket, do not over tighten. Simply finger tighten the bolt as this allows the bypass
door to move down as the gasket begins to seat after the first few fires.
8. When reinstalling the combustor, ensure it has been rewrapped with new expanding gasket that was
supplied with the replacement kit. Do not install combustor without gasket.
MAINTENANCE
DOOR GLASS GASKET INSPECTION
When the appliance is cold, hold the glass by placing the palm of each hand on either side of the glass. Press
firmly and try to move the glass. If the glass moves the door glass retainers may need to be tightened or the
door glass gasket may need to be replaced.
1. Inspect the door glass gasket. If the gasket is frayed or missing sections replace the gasket.
2. Inspect the glass retainers and ensure the screws holding the retainers in place are tight. Hand tighten
plus 1/4 turn. Do not over tighten.
DOOR GLASS, CLEANING
The best way to keep the glass clean is to leave the appliance on high burn for a period of time after each
reloading The moisture which is driven from a new load of wood contributes much of the creosote on the
inside of the glass. Removing that moisture at the beginning of the burn cycle helps to keep the glass clean.
Leaving the thermostat on a higher setting for 30 minutes to an hour before turning to low for an overnight burn
will also help. Heavier deposits may require hand cleaning. Manual glass cleaning should be done when the
appliance and glass are cool.
DO NOT CLEAN THE GLASS WHILE IT IS HOT
.
WARNING: Do not use
abrasive cleaners to clean the glass
. Use a soft cloth. After using any cleaner, thoroughly rinse the glass
with water to remove any deposits left by the cleaner. Failure to remove all traces of glass cleaner will result in
the glass cleaner residue baking on. This residue may be very difficult to remove.
