I have a Treager pellet stove a friend gave me. I'm sure it hasn't been used in a while. I cleaned it all out, put some pellets in the hopper and put some in the cylinder in the front, plugged the stove in, lit the pellets on fire in the cylinder, the fan comes on, the stove starts to smoke, after a couple of minutes the fan goes off and I noticed the auger had not moved. Any Answers would be helpful. Thanks..

The auger is driven by a small motor and gear or chain that varies with the fire size. Check to see if the auger is stuck or the motor or controller is possibly bad.
