Panel Seal, Adjusting







- Check that the pre-tension between panel seal -2- and body is uniform all-round using a 0.3 mm thick strip of paper (or a plastic credit-type card, for example). It must be possible to pull the paper strip through between the panel seal and body under tension.
- If the pre-tension is insufficient, the panel seal can be pushed apart with a wedge -1- , or if the pre-tension is excessive pushed together. To adjust the panel seal the glass panel -3- must be removed.
