This post is aimed at those members who have first hand knowledge of this Fridge as I'm seeking some information on cleaning the flue and burner.
In the attached picture you should see the burner assy (with the retaining bolt sheared by yours truly when attempting to undo. (Now firmly held in position with wire)).
As I understand it, (and seeking confirmation form informed members) the 'jet' is inside the block at the bottom of the picture and left of the hole. (which I believe is to act as a venturi and draw in air !) There is a rose petal shaped object in the bottom of the shroud and I assume this is the burner arrangement. At present the flame that comes out of this petal arrangement is blue and clean, so my take on this is it does not need cleaning. Question: When servicing this bit what do you replace and what do you clean and how. (I do not want to shear another thread!)
Next question: I attempted to clean the flue from above but after putting my arm down from the top (almost as far as I can go, I found the top of the flue pipe which is about 15-20 mm dia with a Tee piece fitted to the top which I cannot budge. I assume this is removed somehow and then the baffle taken out and then the tube is cleaned with a wire brush ? I would welcome advice on how other members removed the Tee piece and serviced this model of Fridge.
Many kind thanks in advanced.
