MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED…
9 While you are tapping the side heat exchangers, we recommend that you pull the draft knob all the
way out for a minute or two and put the unit on high fire. This will allow the unit to self-clean the
heat exchanger area, the draft fan and exhaust chimney pipe.
9 If a clinker ball develops in the firepot, scrape it out with the clean-out. You may have to do this once
or twice a day depending on the moisture content of the corn. If this is not cleaned out, it could cause
the fuel stirrer to jam. Clinker balls are a direct result of excessive corn moisture and they do not
indicate a problem with the stove. AES highly recommends an additive called “Clean Burn” be added
to your corn to eliminate these clinkers. Contact your local Countryside reseller for availability and
cost.
9 Open the stove doors and wipe the inside of the glass with a damp cloth as needed.
SPECIAL CLEANING/OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS:
3500P & 3500L Models: After cleaning or when operating the model 3500P & 3500L models you need to

way in and make sure that you have replaced the left & right clean-out plates that are located on the inside
of the unit. (These plates are located inside the firebox to the left and right of the firepot in the lower
corners of the firebox.) If these plates are not in the closed position the unit will burn dirty.

closed after cleaning out the fly-ash. The second set of clean-out plates are located inside of the ash pan
area below the firepot. Open the ash pan, clean out all the ash, slide the plates toward the center of the
firebox to open and scrape out the ash from behind the back wall of the unit. Slide the plates closed and
replace the ash pan. Make sure to lock the ash pan in place.
