A grate or other similar device for shaking or disturbing the fuel bed or power-driven mechanical stoker,
Installation instructions that state that the use of wood in the stove, except for coal ignition purposes, is prohibited by law, and
The model is listed by a nationally recognized safety-testing laboratory for use of coal only, except for coal ignition purposes.
