1. Drain the boiler primary circuit and remove the gas valve
as described in section 13.22.
2. While supporting the heat exchanger undo the screws
securing it to the brass manifolds.
3. Withdraw the heat exchanger upwards, taking care not to
damage any wires or controls.
Seals
4. There are four rubber seals between the manifolds and
heat exchanger which may need replacement.
5. Ease the seals out of the manifold. Replace carefully,
ensuring that when the seal is inserted into the manifold it is
parallel and pushed fully in.
6. When fitting the new heat exchanger note that the left
hand location stud is offset towards the centre more than the
right hand one.
7. Reassemble in reverse order.

rear of the assembly and under the flow pipe nut at the left
hand side.
