2.9 ACCESSING THE FAN
1. Un-plug the lead from the mains supply.
2. Remove the glass. See 2.1 and 2.2.
3. Remove the logs and embers.
4. Remove the screws holding the rear access panel to the inside of the back of the firebox. Later
models have keyholes for the screws, so they do not need to be removed completely.
5. The fan heatshield is an integral part of the access panel, and it comes clear as the panel is removed
by lifting upwardly.
6. Lift the fan assembly from its locating posts. It may be necessary first to remove a shipping nut
from one of the threaded locating posts. There is usually no need to replace this shipping nut.
7. Lift the fan up and angle it out through the access hole in the rear of the firebox. To remove it
completely, disconnet the electrical connections.
8. Assembly is a reversal of the extraction procedure. Take care to engage the fan assembly on the
locating posts without dislodging the four rubber mounting bushes.
2.10 ACCESSING THE THERMODISC (If fitted)
The function of the thermodisc is to automatically start the fan after the heater has reached a
sufficiently high temperature, and to stop the fan when the heater has cooled after being shut down.
1. Thermodiscs may be in one of two positions. Early models had them fitted behind the firebox, and
they could be reached by removing the fan access panel as detailed above.
2. Later models have the Thermodisc mounted under the burner tray. These can be reached by
removing the lower grille.
