My Dutchwest Large 2461 Convection Woodstove has been great and had the lowest emissions at the time of purchase. It is so well sized for this home and is in good shape except for the baffle and air distributor is burned up a bunch. I am trying to replace them and ordered the parts from woodsmanparts and they came in two days. Got the baffle off, but I can't figure how to get the air distributor off to replace it. The Inner Top Web all looks good so I was hoping not to have to buy that. Is there a way to get this air distributor off easily? If so, how? Thanks!
