    if you look through the back of the drum, while slowly turning, there are some allen screws ( 2 or 3 )..undo and voila !

    Hi Chezza
    I can see hex head bolts or screws through the holes in back of drum, the problem now is the holes in the drum are not big enough to pass a spinner through to undo.Please advise.

    thanks Dave.

    Undo hex screws, back plate of drum comes off, you will then get access to heater, not a difficult repair to be honest.

    Hi Guys
    Sorry to be a pain.The six large outer hex screws when removed do not allow the drum to be removed because the inner plate is much larger than the aperture in the drum.The holes in the plate which the hot air blows through are all the same size and just big enough to pass a philips screwdriver through thus unable to undo small hex screws.Can supply photo if required.

    Thanks again.

    if its how i remember there will be 2 larger holes near the centre of the back panel that you position diagonal at quater to 3 position undo allen keys which you can see through the 2bigger holes 7mm if i recall and then undo all allen keys around back plate back plate should then come off leaving 3 or 4 7mm screws undo them and heater bank slides out.
    hope that helps.
