Adjusting the Door Cam

The door cam should be tight enough to pull the door against the face of the stove yet not so tight as to
not allow full handle rotation. To tighten the door cam, remove the door handle and remove one of the
washers between the door frame and cam (the washer may be stored for future use by placing it between
the cam and nut). To loosen the door cam, add a washer between the door frame and cam.

NOTE: Older models use 7 washers between the door & cam. Newer models use 1 bushing & 3 washers.


Checking for Air Leaks

AIR LEAKS INTO THE FIREBOX WILL DECREASE THE INSERT'S PERFORMANCE
GREATLY, LEADING TO EXCESSIVE SOOTING, INEFFICIENT BURNING, AND PERHAPS A
MALFUNCTION.


 Inspect the door gasket to make sure it is fully attached. If the door gasket is worn or flattened,

replace.

 If the glass is cracked, replace. The glass is held in place with clips.
 Open the ashpan access door and inspect the gasket around the door. Re-attach or replace the

gasket if necessary. Re-attach, or replace the gasket if necessary.


NOTE:
Ask your authorized Travis dealer to demonstrate how to check a door seal.
