•

Loose the four nuts (13) and remove the two double clamps (14).

•

Pull up the four heating elements (15)

•

Reinstall in reverse order using new heating elements.

Remark

Install the clamps (14) in a position which allows the heating elements to move at
least 5 mm in vertical (axial) direction. Insert the thermocouple deep enough, to
touch the combustion tube and fix it with the spring.
