How to Operate Your Stove

(The model numbers referred to are Buck Stove Models)

NOTE: Wipe gold door with a soft cloth and windex before first fire.

  1. First, you will need good seasoned(NON-GREEN) firewood and some (NON-TREATED) kindling.

  2. Place kindling on the floor of the stove using plenty of it. Then, place a few smaller logs on top of the kindling.

  3. (Bay 91) Open the damper, which is located at the top of the stove, by pulling it toward you. Then, open the two drafts on each side at the bottom of the stove.
    1. (Mod 80) Follow above instructions, also pull out draft control at center of hearth plate.
    2. (Mod 20 only) You have a single draft control located to the top and right as you face the stove. This opens a draft block on right and left of stove with the one control.

  4. At this point you are ready to light your fire. Light the kindling with "Seymour light like a match fire starters" which can be purchased from your friendly Buck Stove dealer. (You can use a match also)
    • NOTE: Do not use any substance to start a fire that contains wax or paraffin for it will damage the catalytic cells.

  5. After your fire is lit, and you are sure it is lit, start watching the catalytic probe which is located next to the damper towards the top of the stove. When the temperature reaches 200 degrees, shut the damper down half way. At this point the Catalyst is preheating itself. When the probe reaches 600 degrees, shut the damper down all the way and close the draft controls down sightly. (THE AMOUNT OF DRAFT WILL DEPEND ON THE QUALITY OF THE WOOD BEING USED, AND THE CHIMNEY ITSELF.)
    • NOTE: NEVER, shut the drafts totally or the glass will smoke up.
