Adjustments on the door are necessary and part of the maintenance of the stove. These adjustments can be performed in different situation:

  • After the first combustions
  • After a period of use
  • Each time the closing of the door gets a little hard

Please notice: Always do the following with a cold stove.

Necessary tools:

  • 1 cruciform screwdriver
  • 1 allen key 4 mm
  • 1 allen key 2,5 mm

The door and the closing mechanism can easily be adjusted, in four different places, as illustrated below:

ADJUSTMENT OF HINGES (1 AND 2)

The hinges maintain the door in its position and make sure it hangs straight. Moreover, it keeps a correct distance between the door and the stove, for a perfect closing. However, from time to time, these hinges need to be adjusted.

This video illustrates the procedure:

TIP: If the door needs to get raised on the right side, the solution is to move the upper hinge a bit to the left.

Please notice: It might be necessary to do this procedure a couple of times, if the result is not acceptable. Then, you might also need to adjust the rolls (3 and 4) on the right side afterwards, in order to secure a perfect closing of the door. To do so, please follow the instruction below.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE UPPER ROLL (3)

  1. Open the door and make sure it remains open.

  2. Remove the top plate by unscrewing its 4 fixing screws – 2 at the front and 2 at the back of the stove. It might need a little push forward and sideways in order to get it off.

  3. Loosen the 2 fixing screws of the upper roll with an allen key and place the roll in the desired position, before fixing the screws again.

     
  4. Check if the door closes correctly by making sure the “hook” picks the upper roll well.

  5. Mount the top plate back to its position by screwing its 4 fixing screws.

Please notice: Once this is done, you may as well need to adjust the lower roll (4) in order to secure a perfect closing of the door. To do so, please follow the instructions below.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE LOWER ROLL (4)

  1. If the wood-burning stove has a drawer remove it by clicking the drawer off its runners.
  2. Open the door and make sure it remains open.
     
  3. Loosen the 2 fixing screws of the lower roll with an allen key and place the roll in the desired position, before fixing the screws again.
  4. Check if the door closes correctly, by making sure the “hook” picks the lower roll well.
     
  5. Put the drawer back in place.
     
  6. Your door should now close perfectly.

THE HOOK MUST GRAB THE ROLL (5)

  1. If the door is placed too high or too low, the hook will move towards the roll, which will make it difficult to open and close the door.
