    removing ENA side panel

    Originally posted by noidle22 View Post
    The side panels dont come off the Ena machines. Not any way that I have found anyway. You have to break them to get them off. You can slide the top and bottom back and release some tabs but you need to snap the front mounting points. It's ok once you put it back together because it holds together ok.
    Has anyone figured out how to get the side panels off without breaking? I've got all the screws out, the rear tabs pulled up and released, the rear corner mounting points loose, but can't get the front/top/bottom of the side to release.

    And if I need to break them, how do I do it without breaking the whole panel?

    Thanks!

      Hi pinnatifid, did you manage to get those panels off? I'm in the the same place with my Ena 5:
      Unscrewed torx screws at the top corners
      Took logo off back and unscrewed oval screw then pushed up the locking mechanism to release the back part of the panels.
      Unscrewed oval screw at the front

      But I'm still unable to prise the panels off - can anyone give any pointers?

      Thanks

        Okay - managed to do this in the end!

        Unscrewed torx screws at the top corners
        Took logo off back and unscrewed oval screw then pushed up the locking mechanism to release the back part of the panels.
        Unscrewed oval screw at the front which holds in place a plastic rod/tag
        Pull the rod/tag out and down, this will release the locking mechanism for the front part of the sides which should then easily lift off.

        Hope this helps someone.

          The rod tag was the answer no broken covers and the end of a lot of pain and searching....

            I had the same problem with my super auto machine and I dump 2 to 4 cups of rice and let it run for few cycle.
            It fix the problem and remove some coffee grease which was stuck in the machine.
            Genius!! I took the whole thing apart and realized that the issue was nothing coming through the grinder. After reading your post I switched the grinder setting to coarse and after grinding a few times with rice, it started to flow.

            Thanks

              Thanks snobs and andytidd! This also works for me !!! Really Genius!! BUT, once the problem is fixed, don't feed anymore rice since when the rice powder meets hot water and pressure, the grounds become sticky and may stuck the brew unit. This happened to me and I had to clean the drip tray/ground out-put to make the machine work properly. Anyway, using rice to fix the "Fill Beans" error is a rather good idea!
