STOVE DOOR ADJUSTMENT
The Crossfire door may require fine adjustment due to variations in the door, the gasket material, due to hinge
wear, or to maintain a center-aligned appearance. The Crossfire door needs to remain airtight to ensure
proper firebox operation. The Crossfire door can be adjusted up or down and left or right with the adjustable
hinge pins as shown in FIGURE 16.
The door gasket can also be adjusted to improve on the airtight fit. To adjust the gasket tightness, simply
rotate the door latch clockwise (tighten) or counterclockwise (loosen) one complete revolution or as necessary
to adjust the gasket seal. A good test to evaluate proper door gasket seal is to lay a dollar bill against the
stove frame and then close and latch the door. If gently tugging on the dollar bill does not dislodge it from
the door, the seal is appropriate. In the event that a proper door gasket seal cannot be obtained, it may be time
to replace the door gasket.
STOVE DOOR GLASS CLEANING
The Crossfire stove is designed with an air wash system that assists in keeping the door glass clean. If the
Crossfire stove is operated continuously on low heat setting, the door glass will get dirty quicker than when a
medium to high fire is fueling the firebox. If the operator wants the door glass to remain clean for the longest
period of time, a high temperature fire must be maintained. This means adjusting the combustion air to obtain
as blue a flame as possible without blowing pellets out of the burn pot. CAUTION: Do not clean hot glass.
If glass requires cleaning, use an authorized stove glass cleaner on a cool glass. Contact Country Flame or
one of its local authorized dealers to obtain a suitable glass cleaner. Regular household glass cleaners are not
effective in cleaning creosote and other residue from the glass. DO NOT use abrasives such as steel wool or
powder abrasives as they will permanently damage the glass. Once the glass has been scratched, complete
replacement of the glass is required. Use only approved 1400°F high temperature stove ceramic glass to
replace any cracked or broken glass.

GLASS REPLACEMENT
The glass used in the Crossfire stove is a 1400° F high temperature ceramic glass. If the glass should crack or
break for any reason, it must be replaced with an equal or better grade ceramic glass. The use of tempered
glass or ordinary glass IS NOT AUTHORIZED and its use is hazardous. Crossfire replacement glass can be
purchased direct from Country Flame or one of its authorized dealers. See FIGURE 17 for securing points for
