Undo the nut securing the thermocouple probe to the manifold panel 

and withdraw the thermocouple. 

4.

Remove the screw securing the firebox front cross rail and decorative 

baffle at the right side. 

5.

Slacken the screw securing the cross rail and decorative baffle at the 

left side and swing the rail down at the right side to give access to the 

nut securing the thermocouple probe. 

6.

Refit in the reverse order.  When reconnecting the thermocouple nut 

to the control valve, make sure that the vent sensor wires are properly 

located.  Initially screw the thermocouple nut until finger tight, then 

finally tighten a further quarter turn with a wrench.
