Removing Glass Door
If replacement of glass is necessary, the entire assembly, glass and
frame, must be replaced. If glass is broken, wear gloves and tape the
remaining fragments onto the frame.

and then down and forward to remove screen/rod assembly
from the firebox. Set assembly aside.

two below firebox that hold glass door in place (see Figure 37).

ing injury, remove the five screws from the hinge located on
the left side of door frame assembly (see Figure 37).
