New Buck Corporation 81 - Manual (Page 12)

NOTE: Mount top trim panel so that it sits in front of top of side trim panels.
9. Obtain brass trim kit provided with insert kit and slip over top and sides of trim panels. Top ends of brass may
need to be trimmed to fit (See Figure 4).
10. Using insulation provided, peel and stick to back of panels overlapping fireplace dimensions by 1" on each
side and top. (See Figure 4A).
11. Next using high heat silicone or furnace cement run heavy bead of caulking around where panels meet the
stove. (See Figure 4A).
12. Slide unit back into fireplace. Check to be sure that trim panels (and brass) are properly positioned and lie flat
against front of fireplace. If panels are out of position, slide unit out and reset by loosening mounting screws
and repositioning in slot. With bar lift stove up in front. Place insulation across front and surface of hearth or
bottom of fireplace to make complete seal.
13. To check seal of panels, use candle flame and go around entire area sealed by silicone and insulation. If flame
leans toward inside of fireplace, add additional insulation. This ensures an airtight seal.
FINAL CHECK
1. Recheck specified clearances.
2. Remove all foreign material from firebox area.
3. Primary Air Control: The primary air intake draft control is located at right bottom side of hearth. It is
operated by moving handle out to open (to allow air into the firebox) or in (to control or close off) air into
firebox. (See Figure 4).
4. Plug power cord into a 115V AC outlet if optional motor is being used. “Do not run power cord under unit
or in high traffic areas.
5. Place rumpled pieces of newspaper in stove. Light it and close door. Ensure that stove draws properly through
primary draft.
NOTE: “Do not use grate or elevate fire. Build wood fire directly on inner bottom of fire box.”
6. Check for smoke leaks around door.
7. Open door and check for smoke escaping from front of stove. Smoking usually ndicates a defective or poorly
positioned chimney. Some chimneys with a marginal draft can be pre-heated by lighting newspaper and
holding it near open damper with a poker or fire tong. Once chimney heats up, a proper draft can usually be
obtained.
