Just an anecdote - I didn't need to remove the back of the stove to clean the top as a top vent. I instead removed the top pipe and the top plate came off by reaching through the top opening.I don’t like how the f45 and f55 back has to be removed to clean flue if connected to top vent. Just observations no real experience. If jotul would say it’s ok to run with out top bolted down is a no. Issue. Probably a non issue rear vent to a T.
