THINK ITS AT THE TOP. 0.75 BAR SHOUD BE NEAR ENOUGH

Thanks for that Gordon.I did see it when it was installed but could not remember if it was on the front or back.I can go ahead now and dismantle the cupboard that i built around the boiler knowing that it is under the front cover.hopefully that will be the problem failing that it will be back to the drawing board.

You should read the FAQ on this web site otherwise you will do it wrongly!!!

I've got the same problem with the same boiler. Would one of you guys please tell me where to find the valve for pumping up the pressure vessel. I've had a quick look and I couldn't see it behind the drop down panel. Thanks!

right at the back over the top of the boiler and be prepared to lose some skin

Thanks, I didn't think to look there. This is what I found, is it the right one:
