5.Apply a small bead of gasket/stove cement and the new gasket. Do not overlap the ends of the gasket rope.

6.Center the new glass panel over the gasket and

reinstall the glass clips. See figure 17. IMPORTANT: The side of the glass treated with an

infrared coating (marked on the perimeter) should always be facing outward. It is extremely impor- tant to tighten the glass clips slowly and in a repeating pattern, like tightening the lugs on an automobile wheel.

Check door and window gaskets for tightness. To check the seal of the front doors, close and latch the doors on a dollar bill and slowly try to pull the dollar bill free. If it can be easily removed then the seal is too loose. Check several spots around the door, and repeat the procedure on the ash pan door as well.

If gaskets need to be replaced, scrape out the old gasket and cement and clean the area with a wire brush. Apply a small bead of cement and push in the new gasket. After closing and latching the doors wipe clean, any excessive cement that has come from beneath the gasketing.
