Installing the pellet bin

Installation

3. Loosen the screws on the lid. Carefully lift the lid

and place it on the pellet hopper.

Fig. 9-25: Lid

4. Dismantle the pellet hose connection. Also remove

the blind cover from the desired position. In this
example, the connection is rotated by 90°.

Fig. 9-26: Replacing the connection and blind cover

Replace the connection and blind cover and
reinstall them on the pellet hopper. Make sure not
to damage the included seal during installation.

5. Turn the lid and re-attach it. Both connectors for

the pellet hoses must point in the same direction.
