Install Smokeshelf / Firebricks
Intrepid 1640 Woodburning Stove
Look inside the firebox and locate the position for the Smokeshelf. It will seat against the upper Back, directly under the Flue Collar. It is supported by ribs cast into the air manifolds on either side and along the back plate. (Fig. 29)

1.Orient the Smokeshelf Plate as illustrated and apply a bead of furnace cement along the rib at the back edge.
2.Apply a bead of cement along the top of each Side Rib on which the Smokeshelf will rest. (Fig. 29)
3.Position the Smokeshelf above the #3 Air Tube so that it seats against the Back wall and upon the Side Ribs.
4.Insert the three Upper Firebricks into position above the Secondary Air Tubes as shown in Figure 30. Insert the bricks up betweeen the #1 and #2 Air Tubes. The firebricks do not need cement - they simply rest directly upon the air tubes. Push each firebrick fully back against the Smokeshelf plate.
Flue Collar Reversal
The Intrepid is shipped with the Flue Collar in the Top Exit position. Follow these steps to orient th collar for a Rear Exit installation.
1.Remove the Flue Collar Heat Shield, (used for top- exit installations only).
2.Remove the two screws that attach the flue collar to the stove and turn the collar
3.Confirm that the gasket is seated properly and resecure the screws.
Install the Outside Air Adaptor
The optional #1878 Outside Air Adaptor provides a collar to which a 3 inch diameter air duct may be attached directly to the air inlet area at the back of the stove.
Use the four sheet metal screws provided in the kit to attach the adaptor to the center mounting flange at the bottom of the Rear Shroud.
Attach the Chimney Connector
1.Insert the crimped end of the first section of chimney connector into the flue collar.
2.Using the holes in the collar as guides, drill 1/8" (3mm) holes through the connector pipe.
3.Use the three #10 x 1/2" sheet metal screws pro- vided to secure the chimney connection to the flue collar.
If applicable, attach Chimney Connector Heat Shields following the instructions included with those parts.
