DOOR HANDLE ASSEMBLY
1. Remove all ash from the firebox, and extinguish all hot embers before disposal into a metal container.
2.
With a 3/16” allen wrench, remove the 2 front secondary combustion tube retainer bolts on the secondary air channel under the
end of the front tubes. See Figure 25B. NOTE: Soak the bolts with penetrating oil for at least 15 minutes before trying to remove
them.
3. To remove the secondary combustion tubes, slide the tube to one side until one end is out of its hole. Then, while lifting that end of
the fiber board, pull the tube up over the secondary air channel and out of the hole at the other end.
NOTE: When replacing the secondary tubes, be sure the tube with the larger holes is placed in the front or your stove
will not operate properly.
4. Slide fiber board and ceramic blanket forward to front of stove, tilt down and slide to the door. Tilt to one side and slide both through
door at the same time. Keep them tilted as you lift it out of the door.
See Figure 25C.
5. To install the fiber board baffle and ceramic blanket, repeat steps 2 through 4 in reverse. Be sure that the fiber board baffle is pushed
back fully and the blanket is down flat. The front of the blanket should be flush with the front of the baffle.
NOTE: The baffle in the 4300 is 2700° Fiber Board. Removing hardware exposed to combustion processes can be frustrating.
If your reason for removing the baffle is simply to clean the chimney, you have alternatives which will save time and effort. Call a
qualified chimney sweep or an authorized Quadra-Fire dealer for details.
