Shutdown Procedure:

will stop the feeder and the fire will burn out. When
the stove cools to about 95 degrees Fahrenheit, all
motors will stop. The unit can then be unplugged.

coal to shut it down rather than use the "OFF"
position. This is because there is no moisture
left in the hopper from the coal. Always run the
stove out of coal to shut it down when the heating
season is over or if the stove will not be used for
several days.
Restarting Fire After Shutdown:
All ash and partially burned coal must be cleaned
out from behind grates down under firebrick until
fresh coal is seen. Follow "Starting Fire" procedure
