I purchased this stove off craigslist for 40$.....yea I know I am still laughing at the idiot that sold it!!!!!

After fixing a fuse and replacing the rope seal around the door the only issue I have it that the door gets all smoked up after several days of operation.
Question:

1. Is this caused by not replacing the door rope seal correctly?
2. Or is this normal?


Thanks a million

Yesw I am....and I did know he has a great voice...I'm a big fan of Old Country....and Pellet burning too!!
 
Just a wet paper towel is all you need to get the pellet dust off. No sense putting any chemical residues on the glass that will burn on to it.
