To remove the original collector hood

1. Remove the 2 silicon rubber tubes from the fan sensing points.

2. Disconnect the fan leads.

3. Disconnect the silicon rubber tube from the rear of the collector

hood.

4. Slacken the two M5 nuts on the front tie rods, releasing the tie

rods from the combustion chamber.

5. Remove the M5 central fixing screw at the rear of the collector

hood and remove collector hood / fan assembly.

6. Remove the three M4 screws (from the inside) retaining the fan

to the collector hood.

Keep the fan safe at one side and discard the old collector
hood.

Installing the new collector hood

Fasten the fan with the 3 new screws and washers,
provided, to the new collector hood assembly.

Assemble reverse order, ensuring the fan leads, and 3
sensing tubes are reconnected.

Affixing the data plate

Before applying the data plate you must first cut it so
that when it’s applied over the original data plate the
bottom line of information is still showing.  Once cut,
peel off the back to show the adhesive side and carefully
stick over the original data plate (on top of the controls
support; see below).
