How to remove side panels

1. Place the roaster on a padded mat to provide a solid base for the machine to stand on once the side panel is removed so it is easier to work with.

2. Remove the top plate.

3. Remove the trier and the cooling tray to work easier.

4. With the 2-millimeter hex tool, remove the countersunk bolt from the front décor plate (bottom left at the front).

5. Remove the screws at the back. Depending on the machine model, you must use a TX20 (wood) or a 3-millimeters hex tool (black). Some older models have three screws instead of four.

6. Remove the three screws under the roaster corresponding to the panel you want to take off. You can gently lay the roaster on its side or push the machine to the edge of the table so that the line of screws is visible.

7. When you are taking off the side panel, loosen the cap head bolt (on the inside of the machine) holding the panel in place using the 4-millimeters hex tool.

8. Gently take the side panel off and place it on a protective surface to keep it safe.

 

How to install side panels

1. Start installing the side panel from the front and below. Fit the sleeve bearing in the wooden panel into the small metal projection on the side.

The back bracket of the panel goes below the backplate

3. When installing the left side panel, install the cap head bolts with the 4-millimeters hex tool once it is in place. Tighten it while pushing the roaster together.

5. Install the back screws and the bottom screws. Do not fully tighten them until the last one is in its place. 

Push the machine to the edge of the table when installing the bottom screws

 

6. Once the last bolt is in, push the roaster together (move the side panels inwards) and tighten the screws (no need to apply a lot of torque). Make sure that no cables are being squeezed.
