3.Remove ceramic blanket from above the baffle.

4.With a 3/16 in. Allen wrench, remove the front manifold tube retainer bolt on the air channel under the end of the front tube. See Figure 32.2.

C. Door and Door Gasket

Periodically check the door gasket for proper seal. As the gasket compresses or “seats” during use, it may become necessary to adjust or tighten the door latch.

To Adjust or Tighten Door Latch

Remove spacing washers shown in Figure 32.4. At least one spacing washer and the black washer must be left in place.

OR

Replace the gasket material. Wear or damage to the gasket material can cause air leakage into the firebox resulting in overfiring and loss of efficiency.

A replacement gasket is available from your dealer.

NOTE: Soak the bolt with penetrating oil for at least 15 minutes before trying to remove it.

6.Slide fiber board baffle forward to front of fireplace and straight out through door. See Figure 32.3.
