door pin problem

Brianlumsden Lumsden 10 years ago

I am really happy with my firefox 8 stove exept the top pin that holds the door on keeps on rising up once a week I have to gently hammer it back down I have tried wd40 but it is still happening I am worried that the door is warped has enyone any comments please

Stove expert replied: The hinge pin probably just needs a gentle tap on the botttom end to slightly splay it and it will then be tighter in the hinge and less able to ride up.
