I've been slowly fixing up my recently purchased 2018 TB260 and one of the last things I'm trying to fix is the main door. I got a new lower hinge since the original one was "off" even after I straightened it out as best I could. However, the door still binds really tight when closing and I have come to the conclusion the door frame is not true.
So I want to remove the glass from the frame and see what I can do to fix up the frame. There are only 2 bolts holding the glass to the frame where the handle comes across the front of the door.
Here's a shot of the door with the 2 bolts removed:
Glass appears to be held tight to the frame with some sort of adhesive and does not pry away from the frame just using my hands. Is there a trick to separating the glass from the frame? Like maybe using a heat gun and slowly working my way around the perimeter while trying to pry the glass away from the frame?
Here's a shot showing how the frame is pretty far from true, this is with the gasket seal removed and the door closed:
So I'm really hoping its possible to remove the glass without breaking it so that I can work on the frame itself. I looked at just getting a new frame, but its insanely priced at around $2,700!
Thanks!
