573656 Genuine Oven Door Hinge Counter Support Roller for DeLonghi Ovens and Stoves, Replaces DeLonghi 063066

573656 is the genuine hinge counter support used on DeLonghi ovens and stoves, now supplied under a Fisher & Paykel part number. It was originally sold as DeLonghi 063066, so if that number is on your old part or in the manual, this is the one to order. It's a roller type support that forms part of the oven door hinge setup. Compare it with the part you're taking out before you buy.

DeLonghi oven door dropping or hard to close?

Oven doors are heavy, and the hinges rely on springs and supports to hold the door steady at each angle. The counter support takes part of that load as the hinge moves. Once it wears, cracks or loses its rolling action, the door can start to fall open on its own, scrape as it closes or sit crooked against the seal. A door that doesn't close properly lets heat escape around the seal, which slows cooking and wastes energy. If you can see a worn or broken roller with the door off, replace the support.

Fitting the hinge counter support

Isolate the oven at the wall or switchboard and let it cool right down. The job is usually easier with the door removed, so lift it off as your manual describes and keep fingers clear of the hinge springs. Take a photo of how the old support sits before removing it. Fit the new one the same way, refit the door and check it opens and closes smoothly.
