Defiant 1610CE Non-Catalytic Woodburning Stove
30003846
Adjust the Damper as Needed
The tension on the Defiant’s damper is adjustable to 
compensate for compression of the gasket that seals 
the damper to the upper fireback. To adjust the damper:
1.  Remove the griddle. Loosen the lock nut at the cen-
ter of the damper. (Fig. 37)
2.  Turn the pressure screw approximately one half turn 
clockwise with an Allen wrench provided with your 
stove. 
3.  Tighten the lock nut.  Prevent the pressure screw 
from turning as you tighten the nut. Re-test the 
damper.
Tighten the Damper Handle as Needed
A handle on the left side of the stove controls the 
damper. The handle attaches to the damper rod with a 
set screw. Periodically check the set screw and tighten 
as necessary.
How to Adjust the Door Latches
The Defiant’s doors should close securely to prevent 
accidental opening and to keep air from leaking into the 
stove. On properly adjusted doors, the handles should 
resist slightly as they are turned to the closed position 
and the doors themselves should be drawn slightly 
toward the stove.
Over time, the gasket around the doors will compress 
and the latches may need adjustment. 
To adjust the latches, loosen the small lock nut, rotate 
the striker screw a half-turn, and re-tighten the small 
lock nut. (Fig. 40) Your stove kit includes an Allen 
wrench for latch adjustments. Hold the striker screw to 
keep it from turning as you tighten the lock nut. Make 
repeated small adjustments until the setting is right.
Replace the Stove Gaskets as Needed
Your Defiant uses fiberglass rope gaskets to make 
a tight seal between some parts. With use, particu-
larly on moving parts, gaskets can become brittle and 
compressed and can begin to lose their effectiveness. 
These will need periodic replacement.
The sizes of replaceable gasket are listed below, along 
with their applications.

If you need to change a gasket, first obtain an appropri-
ate replacement from your Vermont Castings, Autho-
rized Dealer. 
Wait until the fire is out and the stove has cooled. Be 
sure to follow the standard safety procedure for working 
with dusty materials: wear safety goggles and a dust 
mask. 
The procedure for replacing gaskets is the same, 
regardless of the gasket location. Follow these eight 
steps:
1. Remove the existing gasket by grasping an end and 
pulling firmly. (Fig. 39) 
2. Use a wire brush or the tip of a screwdriver to clean 
the channel of any remaining cement or bits of gasket. 
Remove stubborn deposits of cement with a cold chisel 
if necessary. (Fig. 39)
