Door Gasket
P/N 754455
The gasket on each animal compartment door consists of four
parts, cut to length, and bonded to the inside of the door frame.
The gaskets on the two doors are identical and are removed and
installed the same way. If necessary, you can replace only those
gasket segments that are damaged; it may not be necessary to
replace all four segments.
Tools and Supplies Required
Utility knife
Razor blade
Tape measure
Removal
1. Open the door.
2. Lift the complete door up until the upper
halves of both door hinges come free of the
lower halves (Figure 82).
3. Lay the door latch-side down, on a soft
surface where you can work on it without
scratching the acrylic.
4. With a utility knife, peel the old gasket off
the door (Figure 84).
5. With a razor blade, make sure the surface
from which the gasket was removed is
clean and free of old adhesive.
Installation
1. Measure and cut a piece of gasket material equal in length
to the piece being replaced.
2. Peel the protective backing from the new gasket material.
3. Press the new gasket in place on the door.
4. Holding the door firmly, align the pins in the upper halves
of both door hinges with the holes in the lower halves, and
gently lower the door onto the hinges (Figure 82).
5. Close and latch the door.
