Cata efm60ss lower element

[Msbroken]

Hi all.
Hoping for some guidance.
Need to replace the lower element for this built in oven however it can’t be done from front face. Any guidance on how to change this element please? I can’t find any YouTube guides or handbooks for this model.
Thank you.

I have the part on the way. I just need advice on how to fit it exactly. Just wanted to know how to access the area required etc.
Thanks.

lay machine on its front and you have to take it to bits

from memory you have to release the frame of the oven to be able to open the insulation to get it out
i think the element is locked onto a tray that is slid in.

as i say its not easy

if you post a few pics i will try and help more but you would have to host on another site and post public links

Thank you.
Should I take the door off (worried about door handle when putting on its front)
Do you know of any images around the Internet showing what I need to look for or what to expect.
Thanks again dave. You are really helpful.
