stove vent

I own a 1974 , 31 ft. Sovereign. Can someone enlighten me as to how to change the filter over the stove? No where does there appear any way to do it.

Remove a screw located at the center on each end. Then pry an maneuver the whole unit out. Frame and all.
There is not "a replaceable filter" it is a metal filter unit. Which can be washed. It is really not a filter as much as it is a grease trap to prevent the grease from building up in the exhaust vent. I would use Simple Green or similar product. Soak it and rinse.

Thank you, TG Twinkie, but there are no visible ways to do this. If I pry out the grease filter, it will damage it, I want to be able to put it back. HELLP!!!

Post a pic. If it is like mine there is a screw at each end. Once removed. I had to do some jostling to get it out. I did get it out and back in without damage. The whole frame comes out with the grease trap.
