REMOVING A DOOR GASKET

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect power before servicing.

Replace all panels before operating.

Failure to do so can result in death or

electrical shock.

5. Starting at the top of the door, install the

new door gasket by sliding the lip of the

gasket under the metal retaining strip.

6. Tighten the top of the metal retaining strip

just enough to hold the gasket in place.

7. Starting at the center of the gasket on the

right side, work toward the top of the door,

and slide the lip of the gasket under the

metal retaining strip, tightening the strip as

you go. Make sure that the back edge of

the gasket butts up against the handle

bracket from top to bottom.

8. Close the door and check the gasket to

make sure that it seals tightly against the

frame. If the gasket is buckled, loosen the

metal retaining strip, and smooth the area.

9. Tighten all of the hex-head screws se-

curely.
