DOORS
The Mark V ovens feature double side mounted
doors which operate simultaneously by means of
a chain and turnbuckle linkage assembly. Should
field adjustment be necessary, the two turnbuckles
are located immediately behind the combustion
compartment cover.
For units manufactured prior to August 1984.
1. Adjust one turnbuckle, then the other until the
doors are properly synchronized.
NOTE: The doors are properly adjusted if the
right door is fully closed when the left
door (the door with the handle) has
1/2"Ć1" of travel remaining.
Both turnbuckles must be adjusted to prevent
strain on the door operating mechanism.
2. Tighten the turnbuckle lock nuts.
