Intrepid® Direct Vent - Rear Vent Gas Heater
Installation
Unpack the Stove
Using a 1/2" wrench remove the (4) lag bolts installed
through the shipping brackets and into the skid. Loosen the
(4) bolts where the shipping brackets meet the base of the
unit. Once loosened, tilt the unit slightly and remove the (2)
front bolts, washers and shipping brackets. Using the same
bolts and washers, install the legs where the brackets were
once installed. Repeat previous step to install the rear legs.
!
Porcelain enameled surfaces are fragile. Handle porcelain
enameled castings tenderly. Familiarize yourself with
the assembly steps before you begin and proceed
with deliberation and care. If possible, have assistance
available.
Place enameled castings on a soft, cushioned surface
until you are ready to assemble.
Avoid contact between the castings and other hard
surfaces or objects.
NOTE: Verify the two relief doors (located on top of the
firebox) are properly seated on the gasket. The doors sit
flush on the gasket, and should lift easily from the seal
around the opening.
If you are installing the fan, install it before completing
the stove venting.
If you are not installing a fan, proceed to the appropriate
vent assembly section.
