all operations and always unplug the unit before attempting any work or main-
tenance. Do not connect this heater to any chimney flue already serving another
appliance. Carefully observe and maintain all clearances to combustibles.
A note about fuel: Use only dried shelled corn with a moisture content of 14%
or less (11 to 12% provides the best results); any pellet fuel used should
have an ash content of 1% or less. If not, efficiency will suffer. This heater has
successfully burned pellets with a 2-1/2% ash content, though less ash is preferred
and more efficient.
Your Ashley Multi-Fuel Heater operates on a negative pressure. Therefore, all
venting connections (elbows, T-pipe) must be sealed and airtight.
i Use Hi-Temp silicone at each joint or connection.
*This heater is capable of burning wood, biomass pellets and a wide variety of grains,
including corn, soybeans, cherry and olive pits, and all larger seeds.
