If your glass breaks
If your glass breaks, call your dealer for the exact
replacement glass and instructions on how to replace the
glass and gasket.
1. Remove the door from the fireplace by lifting it off the
hinges. If the right side glass needs to be replaced
remove door by removing the adjustment/mounting
screws (See Figure 1).
2. Remove the clips holding the glass in place.
3. Clean out any bits of glass and dirt from the gasket.
4. Place the new glass into the opening and replace the
clips, being careful not to overtighten the screws.
5. Check the glass by trying to move it back and forth. It
should feel snug, but move slightly without too much
effort. If the right glass was replaced, replace the door
and adjust it square with the centre door. See section
DOORS if the door needs adjustment.
GOLD PLATING
If you have gold doors or gold louvers, you will be happy
to know that they will not tarnish. However, they are not
scratch resistant and require a totally abrasive free
cleaning. Use only mild soap and warm water to clean
the gold when the surface is cool. The use of any house-
hold clea-ner, such as Windex, abrasive cleaners, or any
form of acid, may permanently etch or remove some of
the gold plating. Before every fire, be absolutely sure to
wipe off all fingerprints from the gold plating. Acid from
debris or your fingerprints may permanently etch the gold
plating.
CHIMNEY CLEANING
Check the chimney for creosote buildup every month
until experience shows how often cleaning is necessary.
A buildup of 1/4 inch or more should be cleaned mechan-
ically before more creosote accumulates. Use a plastic
bristle or wire brush that fits correctly into the chimney.
The baffle in the firebox can be removed to gain access
to the flue from below.
To remove the baffle, first remove the secondary air pipe.
This can be done by removing the cotter pin from the top
right side of the secondary air pipe and sliding the pipe
as far as it goes to the left. Then when the right side
drops out of its hole, slide it to the right until the other
side drops. To remove the baffle, push up and slide it off
the brackets. Replace both as you removed them and be
sure the holes on the secondary air pipe are facing
toward the front.
PAINT
You may touch up the face of the Delta with STOVE
BRIGHT flat black high temperature paint. The correct
paint is available from your dealer. When you paint the
face of the fireplace, remove or cover the gold items (i.e.,
doors and louvers), and cover the area surrounding the
fireplace with newspaper. Follow the directions outlined
on the spray can. DO NOT attempt to paint while the fire-
place is still warm. Keep the spray can away from any
source of heat or open flame. Ensure that there is ade-
quate ventilation in the room from the time you start
painting until the paint is dry.
REFRACTORY BRICKS INSTALLATION
The refractories or refractory bricks for the Delta fireplace
are placed in the fireplace at the factory. If, for any rea-
son, they should need to be replaced the following order
should be observed.
The bottom refractory R4606 and R4605 should be
placed at the bottom of the firebox. The two rear refrac-
tories R4602 and R4601 should then be positioned tak-
ing care to place them as in the diagram. The two side
refractories R4604 and R4603 are then positioned once
again being careful to place them properly. If the refrac-
tories on the back and sides do not fit immediately into
position as in the diagram they should not be forced. The
refractories can only be fitted into place as they were
designed to do. The last three refractories should be
placed in front from left to right looking at the fireplace
R4608, R4609, and R4607.
These directions should be reversed in order to remove
the refractory bricks from the Delta.
