REMOVING FURNACE VENT COVER
Slightly different question but deals with the furnace vent cover. Mine has the six screws holding it down and there appear to be two rivets nearer to the top.
My question is ... HOW DO I REMOVE THIS VENT COVER TO MAKE MINOR REPAIRS TO THE RUST DEVELOPING AROUND THE COVER?
After removing the six screws the cover still will not come off and seems to be stuck where the rivets are. After looking on line I not that there are vent tubes/hoses secured to the cover with these rivets.
Is it just a case of a little friendly persuasion by slightly twisting and turning the vent cover to remove it from the side of the RV. Needless to say I don't want to do any damage, but need to get at those rusted areas on the painted surface of the RV.
