Re: CDA DC730SS – Fan Oven Element
So this is a 730 model as listed here
http://www.cda.eu/Products/Ovens/Doubleovens/DC730
The only manual on there is an installation manual and I doubt CDA will give a member of the public either a maintenance manual or a list of part numbers.
Is there a chance that one of the trades people on here could phone and find the part number for me?
Re: Creda TVS3 – Belt replacement – fitting
When I opened the tumble dryer, i was really concerned. I took the heating element part off the back of the dryer and noticed ‘fluff’ in there aswell. A real potential fire hazard. A disaster waiting to happen – My dryer sits underneath the main house gas boiler in my garage. It is vented through the wall. Obviously if it were to catch fire, then the boiler and gas feeds would also be in the direct path. It doesn’t bare thinking about.
I will give it a month and check how it is going. The previous build up took 2 years to accumulate.
Re: Creda TVS3 – Belt replacement – fitting
Just to give you all an update. The replacement belt arrived today and was waiting for me upon my return home from work. I can see what you mean when you say it is a tight fit.
Interesting that when I took the side off of the tumble dryer there was a large amount of ‘fluff’. i will have to keep an eye on it and make sure that the filter is cleaned before/after every use.
Anyhow, I managed to inch the new belt onto the drum, sliding it between the drum and door opening. Once that was in place the fun started. What I found was easiest was to use a small length of piping and use that to lever the belt down while one end of the pipe was attached to the motor spindle. It was then a question of carefully rotating the drum and maneuvering the belt into the right place. Remove the pipe. rotate the drum a few times to make sure there was no sideways movement. Vacuum the inside and then re-attach the exhaust hose, put things back together and voila – job done.javascript:emoticon(‘:D’)javascript:emoticon(‘:wink:’)
Re: Creda TVS3 – Belt replacement – fitting
Thanks for all the comments. Not sure what to do now. I have phoned up one of the companies on the repairs@ list and was quoted £50.00 call out plus the cost of the parts. So almost £70.00 for the job to be done.
