DOOR GASKET REPLACEMENT

1. Place the door, exterior face down, gasket up, on a clean, smooth surface

that will not mar or scratch the finish.

2. The magnetic door gasket consists of a cavity

containing the magnetic strip, a bellows cavity

that permits the gasket to conform to irregular

surfaces, and a base section that features

a dart- shaped projection that serves as the

attachment means when it is forced into the

slot in the door breaker.

3. To remove the original magnetic gasket

assembly, grasp the gasket at one of the

corners and pull the dart-shaped projection

out of the retainer slot in the door breaker.

Pull slowly and examine your progress to

avoid tearing the projection which will then

remain in the retainer slot.

4. Remove the entire gasket assembly and examine the retainer slot to make

sure that it is free of gasket material or other debris.

5. Starting at one corner, insert the dart-shaped projection of the replacement

gasket into the retainer slot and, using a rubber mallet, drive the dart into

the retainer slot. HINT: Cover the face of the rubber mallet with masking

tape to prevent smudging the gasket. Attach only about two inches (2") of

the gasket in each direction away from the corner.

6. Use the same procedure as in Step 4 at the

remaining corners and also midway between the

corners on the long sides of the door.

7. Using the rubber mallet, drive the dart into the

retainer slot working from the center of each side

toward the corners.

8. Lift the gasket base on the outer edge of the gasket

and examine the gasket to determine if the dart

is engaged by the retainer slot around the entire

perimeter of the door, except where the sweep

gasket is attached. If the dart has failed to engage

in some areas, a small, slotted screwdriver blade can

be used to tuck the dart into the slot.

9. Replace the door assembly. Simply reverse the instructions in the "Door

Assembly Removal" section.
