11.3 To replace the pilot unit.

1. Remove the fascia as section 11.2.
2. Disconnect the thermocouple connection at the bottom of the gas tap.
3. Disconnect the pilot pipe from the gas tap. It is the upper connection at the right
side of the tap.
4. Remove the first screw securing the dust cage to the pilot unit & burner bracket.
Carefully remove the dust cage and place aside. Remove the second screw securing
the pilot unit to the burner bracket.
5. Disconnect the electrode lead from below the pilot electrode.
6. Carefully remove the pilot unit together with the pilot pipe then disconnect the pipe
from the pilot unit.
7. Replace in the reverse order ensuring that the pilot injector is supported to prevent
the body from rotating whilst tightening the pilot pipe.
Note: 1 The pilot unit must be replaced as a whole assembly. Its individual
components are not separately replaceable.
2. Once removed, ensure that the dust cage is cleaned before refitting. Make
sure that it locates squarely onto the pilot unit without any gaps between the
cage edges and the pilot unit.

11.4 Note regarding electronic ignition.

Servicing the gas valve area of the gas fire will require the electronic spark generator
and mounting bracket to be removed. This will allow access to the pipe nuts etc. To
do this remove the two screws that secure it to the lower right support foot then move
it to one side. Refit after servicing is complete.
There will be a fascia support bracket located using the same screws as for the
electronic generator and support bracket. It is important that the 'fascia support
bracket' is fitted to the support foot before the 'electronic generator and
support bracket assembly'.

11.5 To remove the complete burner module, pipes and pilot.

1. Remove the fascia as section 11.2.
2. Support the inlet 'T' connector to avoid straining the pipework and disconnect the
appliance from the inlet 'T' connector.
3(A). Manual ignition: Disconnect the control spindle & adaptor from the gas tap by
removing the split pin. Lift the adaptor clear of the gas tap spindle.
It is important to note the orientation of the 'D' flat at the top of the spindle as it
will need to be replaced in the same way.
3(B). Electronic ignition: Remove the lower 'R' clip from the base of the spindle
assembly. Unscrew the brass nut that secures the microswitch bracket to the top of
the gas valve. Lift the microswitch bracket and spindle clear of the gas valve top.
