Good idea, Its pretty easy. I had my FEC 750 augers stop when it was 2 deg outside. It was too cold to trouble shoot it so I switched cookers. Later I found the Flat head/5/16 hex bolts had backed out. This caused the auger to turn and disconnect the power lead to the auger. That stops all 3 augers on them. When I do my Video, I'll mention that as a thing to check occasionally. Anyway, it can be done fast if you empty your hopper. I had just filled mine the other day to the top. The main thing is to have spare parts. That is why I ordered 100 of them....
