ISE 10 drier, door reversal

[eastlmark]

Just done 2 of these and be warned, its not as simple as it may first appear.
case 1 appeared to have slight damage to the lefthand side as the removable lower panel was slightly mis-shaped and may also have bent the lower door hinge bracket slightly as, when it was reveresed to the other side it was impossible to line up the screw holes. I had to revert to the original door position in order to get out of the customers house alive.

case 2 also had bracket fitting problems but eventualy fitted after I bent the tab that retains the front panel, where it screws to the cabinet, to allow the bracket to sit correctly. Once the door was on, a 2 person job to do safely, you then need to swop the door magnets over. Look in the user book and it shows just pushing these up with 2 fingers to release but in the text it also says the screws in the side of the door need loosening. Not only that, one cover is removed by sliding upwards while the other released by sliding downwards. You then need to swop the magnets and C shaped plate from one holder to the other, do not try to simply swop the holders complete.
All in all, its not a quick simple job but if it is sighted next to an ISE 10 washing machine and the drier is to the right then it is absolutley nessesary to do so as the drier door will hit against the lowered washer door and make loading from one to the other a nightmare.
