The side covers are held in place by pressure on the heating element with 2 springs. To
remove these, simply move them towards you.
The frame is fixed to the upper and lower body parts with 4 M6 fixing nuts (10mm spanner).
Adjustment is possible (+-12mm) in order to be able to align the frame on the cladding.

Inner elements.
All the inner parts are removable for replacement, and to give access to the technical
elements located in the appliance (baffle, flap ...). These parts are made either of stainless
steel or vermiculite (Skamolex). These different parts must be disassembled in a specific
order, following the instructions below.
(!) Vermiculite parts are fragile (especially in the presence of moisture). To avoid any
damage, handle them with care.
Baffles
This stove is equipped with baffles that promote heat exchange with the heating element
and with the convection air, offering maximum efficiency.
The lower Skamolex baffle is simply fitted. To remove it, lift it 1cm and move it towards you.
Once this baffle has been removed, this gives you access to two other baffles, called
"guillotine baffles".
These allow you to change the cross-section of the flue gas passage so that you can adapt
(adjust) the appliance to the chimney draught. These two baffles must be set identically on
the left and right sides.
To modify the setting, unscrew the two M5 screws (8mm socket), position the baffle in one
of the 6 lugs then retighten the screws. When the baffle plate is in the lower position, it
reduces the flow cross-section and limits the smoke flow. These guillotine baffles will
therefore be placed in low position in case of a high draft chimney (high chimney). And
conversely, the guillotine baffles will be raised when the chimney draught is low.
Floor
In order to dismantle the removable parts of the combustion chamber, first remove the
stove floor:
- remove the combustion grate (using the convection air key, for example);
- remove the two floor bricks;
- remove the insulation plates: beware, they are fragile.
Now you can access the fixing screws of the front and rear air distributors.
