DAILY OPERATION
ÌThe hopper and stove top will be hot during operation; therefore, you should always use some type
of hand protection when refueling your stove.
ÌNever place your hand near the auger while the stove is in operation.
This unit has a 50-pound hopper and should be filled when the hopper level drops below 3-inches.
Ensure that all pellet matter is cleared from the hopper gasket surface before closing. Be sure to close hopper se-
curely after refueling. Do not operate this unit with the hopper lid open or unsecured.
In the event of a power outage, the stove WILL NOT function. It is very important that unit be vented properly
(with outside air), as the natural draft is needed to clear the smoke from the stove during a power outage. Also, DO
NOT open the hopper lid because this may allow fire to burn-back into the hopper. If the unit was “ON” when the
power outage occured, one of the following will take place:
1) If the stove is still warm, it will resume feeding fuel and continue to operate normally. If the fire has gone out,
you will have to press the “OFF” button and then the “ON” button again to begin a new start-up sequence.
2) If the stove has cooled-off, it will reset to its “OFF” condition. At this point, you may press the “ON” button
and the unit will begin a new start-up sequence.
NOTE: The unit will also shut down in the event of an exhaust blower failure; if this is the case, the unit will not re-
start and you must contact Customer Service at (800) 750-2723.
SAFETY AND CONVENIENCE FEATURES
Your
Ashley Heritage Model 5700
incorporates a safety pressure switch that helps ensure that everything is
in proper working order before feeding fuel to the burn pot. Because the stove works using an induced draft pres-
sure, the stove will not continue to operate if the viewing door or ash pan slides are left open; or if the combustion
blower fails or the exhaust system is blocked.
The temperature limit control will prevent your stove from operating at abnormally high temperatures. Should
the stove temperature begin to approach the factory pre-set limit, the temperature limit control will automatically
slow down the auger feed rate until the temperature returns to a normal condition.
Your
Ashley Heritage Model 5700
stove also includes an auto-start igniter as a standard feature. The use of
other fire starter materials (wood chips, starter gel, etc.) is not necessary. By simply pressing the “ON” button on
the digital control panel, your stove will begin to feed fuel and automatically start within 5 minutes.
Additionally, your
Ashley Heritage Model 5700
stove includes an integral ash pan, making the cleaning and
removal of ash less frequent and more convenient
