INSTALLING OPTIONAL GLASS DOOR
ACCESSORY
CAUTION: Use only glass doors certified for use
with this appliance.
Note: Glass door may be heavy for some individuals. If this is the
case, please request help from someone else.
The M36, VM36, M42 and VM42 B-vent fireplaces are approved
for use with optional bi-fold glass doors (see Accessories, page
27). The glass panels may be ordered and installed anytime after
the fireplace installation is complete.
Follow these steps to install left and right panels:
1. With the handle at the bottom, completely fold the panel on its
hinges.
2. With the handle facing the center of the firebox opening, insert the
lower pivot pin on the glass door panel into the hole in pivot plate
on the bottom edge of the fireplace opening (see Figure 35).
3. Keeping the folded door tilted, slide the upper two pins into
the guide track found under the upper facial edge of the firebox
opening.
4. Tilt the glass assembly fully vertical until the outer pivot pin snaps
into the mounting hole in the upper spring clip (see Figure 35).
5. Once the top and bottom pins are secured, unfold the door into
the closed position.
6. Repeat the process for the opposite door assembly.
7. To adjust the doors, slide them partially open. Using a screw
-
driver, loosen the hold-down screws in the spring clip (see
Figure 36) and pivot plate.
8. Close both doors until evenly joined at the middle and note the
gap at the outer edges of the face.
9. Reopen one door at a time and retighten the upper and lower
hold-down screws.
10. Repeat the process until both doors are evenly joined, spaced
and working freely.

OPENING VENT DAMPER
Vent damper must be locked in the full open position before operating
the fireplace. If vent damper is not open, fireplace will not light.
CAUTION: The glass panels become very hot while the
appliance is operating. Do not attempt to adjust or clean
the glass doors until the appliance has fully cooled.
The doors may be removed for replacement or cleaning as follows:
1. Partially open the door and press up on the upper spring clip with
a screw driver until the outer top pivot pin is free of the clip.
2. Fully fold the frame assembly and slide the upper edge towards
the center of the firebox opening until the guide pins are free
of the frame rail (see Figure 37).
CAUTION: Always operate the appliance with the
doors either fully opened or fully closed. Operating the
appliance with the doors partially open can result in
improper venting of flue products.
