Just picked up this Fisher Mama Bear VI on Craiglist and would like to know more about it. Is it supposed to have a baffle or some other parts within it, a door gasket? Seems odd that I can look right through to the flue outlet. It came with a manual, but it doesn't show me what the interior is supposed to look like other than brick placement.
The manual says 1980 on it, not sure if that is the year of it or not. There is a Tag on the back.
I removed the air knobs and door spring handle to put a new coat of paint on it.
I'm hoping to run this in the upcoming winter, but want to make sure I'm doing the right things. Should I have a damper in the pipe, a baffle, door gasket, any type of special stove pipe for it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I installed a new Duravent Chimney last season so I'm hoping I can use it with this stove. Hope to hear some input and advice from anyone more experienced with these stoves. Thanks! Here's some pictures. I can get more if needed....
