7. DOOR GLASS CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT

A. Be sure the insert is cold before cleaning the glass. To clean the glass, use a damp paper towel or any non-abrasive glass cleaner.

Then use a dry towel to wipe off any streaks that may remain.

B. This glass is 5m thick high temperature heat resistant ceramic glass. DO NOT replace it with any other material.
C. Never slam the door or strike the glass in any way, as this may cause breakage. NOTE: The insert will not operate with

broken or missing glass. If it becomes necessary to replace the glass, replacement glass is available from your nearest
Quadra-Fire dealer.

D. To replace glass:

1. Remove door from insert and lay on a padded flat surface.
2. Remove glass tabs and screws with a Phillips screwdriver by turning screws clockwise.
3. Lift glass frame and glass out of the door frame.
4. Place new glass with fiberglass tape around it into door frame, making sure the Quadra-Fire logo reads correctly to the

outside.

5. Place glass frame pieces over the fiberglass tape on the edges of the glass. Be sure glass is centered in the opening (i.e., same

space top and bottom, left and right).

6. Reinstall screws and glass tabs tightly enough to hold everything in place.
7. Check again for centering of glass in door frame, and tighten all screws securely.

8. READING THE FIRE AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

A properly adjusted fire has a short active flame pattern that extends out of the firepot 4" to 6" (100mm to 152mm). If the fire has
tall flames with black tails and seems somewhat lazy, the feed rate will need to be reduced. Start adjusting this type of fire by
sliding the feed adjustment plate down about 1/2” (13mm). Within eight minutes your adjustment will have taken effect. If the fire
is still too tall, lower the feed adjustment plate again. If the fire is still lazy and you have reached the end of adjustment for the feed
plate, you will need to increase the combustion air. When the fire is too small and rarely peaks above the top of the firepot, you
will need to increase the feed rate by adjusting the plate upwards. If the feed adjustment plate reaches the end of its travel and the
fire is still low and very active, you will have to close the air adjustment to achieve a proper flame.
