OPERATION
Do not operate your stove with the viewing or ash pan doors open. The upper auger will not feed
pellets under these circumstances and a safety concern may arise from sparks or fumes entering
the room.

HOW YOUR STOVE WORKS
Your
Ashley Heritage Model 5700
stove utilizes a dual au-
ger fuel feed system that is operated by a microprocessor con-
trolled digital circuit board. The digital circuit board allows the
dual auger fuel feed system to run in a timer-based, non-
continuous cycle; this cycling allows the top auger to run for a
continuous cycle; this cycling allows the top auger to run for a
predetermined period of seconds, while the bottom auger oper-
ates continuously. The top auger drops pellets to the bottom
auger, while the bottom auger pushes the pellets forward to
auger, while the bottom auger pushes the pellets forward to
the burn pot. As pellets enter the burn pot, outside air is
drawn across the fuel and heated during the combustion proc-
ess. This heated combustion air is then pulled through the
ess. This heated combustion air is then pulled through the
heat exchanger by the exhaust blower, where it is used to heat
air that is drawn into the heat exchanger system by the room
air fan (see FIGURE 10).
Because a forced draft pressure is required for the combustion
air fan (see FIGURE 10).
Because a forced draft pressure is required for the combustion
process inside your stove, it is extremely important that the
exhaust system be properly installed and maintained. And,
that when operating your stove, you make sure that the hop-
per lid, door, and ash pan slides are all properly sealed.
Your stove’s heat output can vary from hi to low by adjusting
that when operating your stove, you make sure that the hop-
per lid, door, and ash pan slides are all properly sealed.
Your stove’s heat output can vary from hi to low by adjusting
the settings on the control panel (located on the lower right-
hand side of the stove). The “HEAT RANGE” setting will vary
hand side of the stove). The “HEAT RANGE” setting will vary
the auger systems feed rate and the exhaust blower speed (i.e.
combustion air). The “BLOWER SPEED” setting will adjust
the room air fan speed (i.e. convection air). Each setting has a
the room air fan speed (i.e. convection air). Each setting has a
range of 1 to 9 (lowest to highest). Any combination of “HEAT RANGE” and “BLOWER SPEED” can be used dur-
ing the operation of your stove.
Your stove can run efficiently over extended periods of time and at different heat output levels as long as the fuel
supply is uninterrupted and proper cleaning and maintenance is performed. (NOTE: Operating your stove on

a high “HEAT RANGE” setting and a low “BLOWER SPEED” setting for extended periods of time may cause your
stove to reach an over-temperature condition, in which case, the stove will automatically reduce the fuel feed rate
and/or increase the room air fan speed. This is a safety precaution that has been designed into your stove and is
not a malfunction).
