.  Ensure that the fire is out and the stove is cool to the touch.
2.  Protect a table or counter top with padding or towels.
3.  Remove door with broken glass by lifting door up and off of the 
hinges.
4.  Lay door face down on a table or counter making sure door 
handle and fiber handle hang over the edge of the table top so 
door lays flat, on a soft surface. 
5.  Remove the screws from each glass retainer.  If screws are 
difficult to remove, soak with penetrating oil first.
6.  Remove the glass.
7.  Use only 5mm ceramic glass, Part 7004-025.

in the front door.
9.  Replace the glass retainers.  Be careful not to cross thread the

Then continue to tighten each retainer alternately, a few turns 
at a time, until the glass panel is tightened snugly.
11. Replace the door on the stove.
WARNING!
DO NOT OPERATE THE WOODSTOVE IF THE DOOR 
GLASS IS BROKEN OR MISSING.  DANGEROUS 
OVERFIRING CAN OCCUR WHICH CAN DAMAGE THE 
APPLIANCE OR IGNITE CREOSOTE IN THE CHIMNEY, 
POSSIBLY CAUSING A HOUSE FIRE.
MAINTENANCE (CONT'D)
GLASS REPLACEMENT
DOOR GASKET
Periodically check the door gasket for proper seal.  As the 
gasket compresses or “seats” during use, it may become 
necessary to replace the gasket material as wear or damage 
to the gasket material can cause air leakage into the firebox 
resulting in overfiring and loss of efficiency. A replacement 
gasket, Part 834-4170, is available from your dealer.  
Do not clean the glass with abrasive materials that may scratch or 
otherwise damage the glass.  Scratches on the glass can develop 
into cracks or breaks.  Never attempt to clean the glass while a fire 
is in the stove.  The best method for maintaining clean glass is to 
operate the stove efficiently by using dry well seasoned wood and 
burning moderate to hot fires.

CARE AND CLEANING OF 
PLATED SURFACES
IMPORTANT:  You must clean all the fingerprints and oils from the 
plated surfaces before firing the stove for the first time. Use warm 
soapy water and a soft rag, glass cleaner and a paper towel, or 
vinegar and a paper towel to remove the oils.  DO NOT use abra-
sive cleaners! If not cleaned properly prior to lighting the first fire, 
the oils can cause permanent stains.  The plating will be cured 
upon firing of the stove and oils will no longer affect the finish.  
Subsequently, little maintenance is then required.  Wipe clean as 
needed with a soft towel.
