2. Unscrew the five bolts that secure the glass. (In the event that a bolt sheers off when
being unscrewed, remove the remaining body of the bolt by drilling down its cnetre with 1/8 inch
high speed steel drill bit. Smaller drill bits may be successful, but do not use a lager bit. Make
sure the bit stays away from the edges of the bolt - this may damage the thread in the cast iron).
3. Remove the old ceramic gaskets and clean up the surface underneath with wire wool or emery
paper to remove loose particles.
4. Place the new gasket material in position around the perimeter of the window area, making
sure to pinch them to the length in such a way that they make a continuous seal. Leave no gaps.
5. Place the new glass in position on the strips and screw home the fresh bolts and fitting by hand.
6. Finally, give each of the bolts an extra half turn or so. The glass should
held tight enough by that cleaning will not dislodge it. Do not over-tighten the bolts
as this may put excessive pressure on the glass, resulting in cracking - important!
To reduce the risk of breaking the glass, avoid striking the glass or slamming the door.
Internal service parts
The flame-path equipment - consisting of the ashpan, grate, firebricks, glass, baffle and flue
collar - are subject to the extremes of heat produced by the fire. From time to time, one or other
of these parts may need replacing as a matter of routine maintenance.
NOTE: The flame-path equipment, the ceramic rope and the paint finish are not covered by
guarantee.
All of these service parts can be bought from your morsø dealer, and we recommend that damaged
parts are replaced as soon as possible to avoid collateral damage.
The grate may be replaced by lifting it by its left hand edge and twisting it backwards. Dislocate
the riddling arm from the grate by feel from beneath the floor of the firebox. If you find this difficult
for any reason, raising the rectangular grate surround casting may help.
Should the baffle be distorted by an overfire, the stove will still function, although its efficiency
may be compromised. Replace it as soon as possible. The rear casing is removed (four bolts).
Remove these and withdraw the baffle from the firebox (this may be easier if the firebricks are
first removed).
Before replacing the baffle, scrape out the old fire furnace and replace with new to make an
effective seal.
