New Buck Corporation 74 - Manual (Page 20)

FINAL CHECK
1. Recheck the specified clearances.
2. Remove all foreign material from the firebox area.
3. Open the primary air draft.
4. Plug the power cord into a 115V AC outlet when using with optional motor. ”Do not run
power cord under unit or in high traffic areas”.
5. Place crumpled pieces of newspaper in the stove. Light it and close the door. Ensure
that the stove draws properly through the primary draft.
6. Check for smoke leaks around the door.
CAUTION
Open the door and check for smoke escaping from the front of the stove. Smoking usually
indicates a defective or poorly positioned chimney. Some chimneys with a marginal draft
can be preheated by lighting newspaper and holding it near the open damper with a poker
or fire tong. Once the chimney heats up, a proper draft can usually be obtained.
If a thorough review of the Troubleshooting Guide in the rear of the manual does not reveal
the problem, contact your dealer for assistance.
CAUTION
The unit is painted with a specially formulated high temperature paint that cures during
the first two or three firings. You may notice a slight smoking effect and an odor of
burning paint when you build the first fires. This is normal and is not a cause for
alarm. In some cases, these fumes will activate a smoke alarm. Opening a window near
the unit will allow these fumes to escape. DO NOT build a large, roaring fire until this
curing is complete or the heater finish may be damaged.
