How to tighten oven door handle

first78

I have a built in Necht oven and the handle is really lose, I can't see any screws on the inside of the door to take the main panel off to get to the screws that hold the handle on....does anyone know how to do this please before my toddler pulls the handle off?

Are there any retaining clips at the top

Many oven doors now have four small bolts in the sides of the door panel.These have a head similar to allen key heads or sometimes just cross head screws. If you undo these,carefully, the front door panel should just come free and the handle fixings can then be tightened.Ensure you line up door correctly to re-fix screws/bolts.

When all proper engineering fails, a strategic blob of araldite may keep the handle in place a while longer, but retraining the toddler should be regarded as vital.
Barbed wire has No Place, but strategic blackmail & relocating All The Interesting Stuff elsewhere may help.

All the best with the real engineering so you can return to enjoying toddler!

In Google type in Necht Oven Manual. Click on the one that offers a .pdf (on my search it was first answer). Go to page 20/21 and it tells you how to remove door and the door glass. This will/should allow access to handle also. Good luck but watch the hinges when you take off/replace door as they are on strong springs.
