ELEMENT-MF APPROVED FUELS
SHELLED CORN
Shelled corn must be 15% or less moisture content. The keys to satisfactory performance are: proper
operation of the stove, diligent maintenance and burning only dry, clean, quality corn. Corn dust must
be screened prior to using.
NOTE: Corn with excessive grain dust must be screened, by sifting with 3/16" mesh screening.
Large pieces of cob may plug the auger.
Clinkers and Ash are by-products of burning corn and are not caused by your stove. Stove
performance can be quickly and severely reduced if poor quality corn is used. Contact your dealer for
more information on where to get high quality corn to burn in your new corn stove.
Store corn in a tight container use other methods to ensure they do not become rain soaked or absorb
moisture from damp or wet floors. This will also prevent rodents from becoming a problem. Do not
store corn within stove installation clearances or within the space required for clinker removal.
The stove is not warranted against damage caused by poor quality corn, incorrect operation, poor
maintenance or incorrect installation.

Distiller’s Grain is a byproduct of producing Ethanol and has higher oil content than corn itself. Due to
this the stove may require more frequent cleaning. Soot may rapidly form in the exhaust system if the
air is not set properly. Check the exhaust frequently when burning Distiller’s Grain pellets.
