A full and complete procedure of how to remove the shower screen and how, if one has accidentally dropped it on the floor, to re-attach it to the group by hand:

Is the shower screen legacy or compatible with any other designs like E61?

The entire Vectis group has been designed / developed from scratch so I don't think any off the shelf parts are involved.

I did not try on an E61 screen. That would not make sense I think because there is already a group seal inside to seal off the top of the portafilter/basket and it's unlikely a stack of two such seals would fit ;-)

Looks similar to the current IMS version of the FAEMA-style shower screen, as found on many vintage lever machines.

Certainly a lot easier than with the Cremina SL.
