SECTION I
INTRODUCTION
Your Buck Stove is a non-catalytic unit designed to meet the most
stringent emissions standards without the use of a catalytic combustor. This effect is
achieved through the use of a secondary air which is mixed with primary air in
the unit's firebox. For peak performance we suggest the use of hard seasoned wood.
DO NOT BURN GARBAGE OR FLAMMABLE FLUIDS.
The primary air, which is controlled by the user, burns the wood. Secondary air is admitted into
the firebox through the secondary air tubes at the top of the firebox. This secon-
dary air burns the impurities in the smoke released from the initial wood burning. The
temperature necessary for this combustion is maintained through the firebrick refractory. If
any more technical information is necessary contact your local dealer.
This heater is equipped with a standard room air blower. For operation and uses of these
electrical assemblies, see instructions provided in this manual on page 35.
