Product models covered: All models of Biomass/Corn/Wood pellet MagnuM & Country Flame appliances.
Topic: This informational bulletin will be addressing the glass in your appliance. What never should be
done with glass, how to clean the glass, how to remove broken or damaged glass. What causes the glass to
be dirty and the different glass options.
What never should be done with glass:
Never:
♦Operate unit with broken glass.
♦Slam the door shut.
♦Strike the glass.
♦Use abrasive cleaners.
♦Clean when glass is hot.
♦Substitute original factory glass. (Always use only factory authorized glass (high
temperature, ceramic glass, and 5mm thick.))
Cleaning the glass:
If smoke accumulates on the glass, before the fire gets hot, open the door and wipe the glass with a
damp rag. If after constant use, the glass is dirty; you must clean the glass so that it will not become etched
with the fly-ash. Once the glass has cooled off, take a damp rag, put a little fly-ash from the unit on the rag
and clean the glass. If this does not clean the glass use a special glass cleaner, you can obtain this
information from your local dealer. (AES has found that Amway crème glass & chrome cleaner works really
well. Do not use abrasives such as steel pads, steel wool, or oven cleaner as they will scratch the glass.
Removal of broken or damaged glass:
The glass is surrounded on the edges with a gasket and seated in a glass channel. It is held in place
with two (2) clips on the top and two (2) clips on the bottom. Open the door and lift door off of hinges. If
the door is tight, tap gently on the bottom of the door with your hand or a rubber hammer. Lay the door
down on newspaper with the glass clips facing you. Using a number two (#2) Phillips screwdriver, loosen
the screws and take the glass clips off. Remove the broken or damaged glass carefully. If glass is broken
discard. Make sure to clean gasket area. Check to make sure the gasket material under the glass is in good
shape. This material can be obtained from an authorized dealer or direct from the factory, if it needs to be
replaced. Tempered or ordinary glass will not withstand the high temperatures of MagnuM & Country
Flame appliances. Reverse the above listed procedure for replacing new glass. When installing the new
glass make sure that the glass is not sitting on top of any obstruction or binding or hitting any corners. The
glass will brake if screws are over tightened.
Dirty glass is caused by;
Poor air quality, poor fuel quality, improper air adjustment, air-wash is out of adjustment.

Operation: Attach door (continued)
NOTE: The top and bottom hinge pins can be moved in or out to adjust the amount of pressure on the
rope gasket when the door is closed. They also balance the gasket pressure between the left and right
sides.
The top hinge pin can be moved left or right to adjust the centering of the rope gasket on the door frame
The following 4 tests check the door alignment and pressure.
4. The 1st test described in the photo below, gives a visual indication that the pressure will be
fairly even across the door. This is a approximate measurement but will give you a quick idea
if the hinge pins need to be adjusted.
5. The 2nd test confirms that the pressure is strong enough to provide a tight seal.
As you close the
door the gasket on
the hinge side
should start to
compress against
the left frame when
the cam is even
with the right side
frame.
Cut photocopy grade paper into
a 2-2.5”x 8-9” strip. Insert the
strip at top, close door and
attempt to remove. The paper
must be tightly held and cannot
be pulled out. The pressure must
be such that the paper will tear
before it slides out.
Repeat at side left, side right,
and bottom center.

6. The 3rd test confirms that the rope gasket is adequately centered on the doorframe when the door
is latched tight.
7. The 4th test is a final check to make sure the door is not tilted.
Measure the distance between the top of the doorframe and the edge of the main body.
Then measure between the bottom of the doorframe to the edge of the main body
The difference between the 2 measurements must be 2 mm (.06”) or less .
Chalk the doorframe
as shown and then
latch the door tight
to transfer the chalk
from the doorframe
to the rope gasket.
Open the door and see that
the chalk lines are
approximately centered on
the gasket. Minimum
requirement is at least .06”
between the edge of the chalk
and the edge of the gasket.
