I recently picked up a 15 year old condensor dryer. I don't have the model number on me right now. What I'm trying to fiqure out is how to replace the lightbulb inside. There is a glass? dome that I can't fiqure out how to open. I have wiggled, and turned. Does anyone know what the secret is? Guy | ||

OK... I've checked the model number and it's Lavatherm 720. So now it seems we have two questions at hand removing the glass and how to access the bulb! Guy | ||

uhm... well i would suggest googling the model. u might come across something showing u how to disasemble anything. but i would try tryin to unscrew the glass and maybe open up the top of the dryer. u might find how to access the globe and take the glass off. worth a shot. if i still had my 620 i would check it out for u but i sold it last year | ||

Here's the link to the manual, I think this would be your dryer, correct?

Here is the link to the exploded views for your Lavatherm 720. I'm not sure where the lightbulb is though. Tom. | ||

Have a look at page 5 of this service manual. The manual is for a later model, but yours may use the same setup. Tom. CLICK HERE TO GO TO hotpoint9534's LINK | ||

Thanks for the scan. I believe the "glass dome" is on page 3, number 647 070 480. It just doesn't show enough! Guy | ||

The second link I posted may be of more use. The cover definitely unscrews though, I think it's just very tight. Tom. | ||
