Attach the Griddle Handle
Install the handle on the griddle. Place the griddle upside
down at the edge of a flat surface and assemble the handle
as shown. (Fig. 17)
With the handle pointing 45° from its final position, tighten
the nut as far as possible with pliers. Move the handle to
its final position while still holding the nut with the pliers.
Take care not to overtighten, as tab may snap.

Operation
Your Intrepid II’s Controls and
What They Do
The stove has two controls to regulate performance: a
primary air control
supplies oxygen for the fire, and a
damper
directs air flow within the stove to activate and
deactivate the catalytic combustor.
Additional air for catalytic combustion is regulated automati-
cally, and does not require operator control.
Symbols cast into the stove are reminders of the correct
directions for opening and closing the controls. In these
directions, ‘left’ and ‘right’ assume that you are facing the
front of the stove.
A Single Air Control Regulates the
Amount of Heat the Fire Will Produce and
How Long it Will Burn
The
primary air control lever
, located at the right rear
corner of the stove, controls the amount of incoming air for
starting, maintaining, and reviving a fire. More air entering
the stove makes the fire burn hotter and faster, while less
air prolongs the burn at a lower heat level.
For the greatest air supply and maximum heat output (but
the shortest burn time), move the lever to the left. For a
fire that will last longer with less heat, move the lever to
the right. You can set the lever anywhere in between the
left and right extremes. (Fig. 19)
The Intrepid II features an automatic thermostat to ensure an
even heat output at any setting you select. The thermostat
senses the heating and cooling of the stove surface and
adjusts the air shutter accordingly.
