Open the doors and install the firescreen. Check for smoke escaping from the front of the

TIPS
ON
FIRE BURNING
ASH BED - Prolongs burn and helps the thermostat function properly.
For best result, the ash bed should be equal to the top ash bar.
GREEN WOOD vs. SEASONED WOOD - Green wood has
a high
moisture content, and therefore requires a hotter ignition temperature.
Seasoned wood
- cut
at
least one year before use - allows for a quicker,
prolonged burn and more complete combustion.
SPLIT WOOD vs. ROUND WOOD - Split wood burns easier and more
rapidly, whether it's seasoned or green. If used after starting a
fire,.
it should
be packed tightly to achieve a longer burn. Round wood burns longer, but
requires more effort to start. Inserting a round piece over a bed of red coals
with the damper and drafts open will help it catch fire. Round wood should
be used
to
accomplish
an
all-night burn.
FIRE STARTERS - Be
highly
selective In choosing a
quick
fire
starter
for
use In
your
BUCK STOVE. NEVER START A STOVE FIRE WITH
GASOLINE, CHARCOAL LIGHTING FLUIDS,.
OR
OTHER CHEMICALS
WHICH COULD EXPLODE. For best results, use Buck
Lite™,.
a safe,
quick fire starter available from your
Buck
Stove dealer. Regular, non-
color newsprint may also be used.
