Abstract
A system has a drive mechanism affixed to an auger to selectively impart rotational forces to the auger for movement of pellet fuel for a cooking grill, and a lever arm affixed in a pivoting relationship to the drive mechanism and to a fixed location separate from the drive mechanism such that manipulation of the lever arm results in longitudinal movement of the auger.
