Hi everyone,
just joined this forum and need help. I've just moved to this house and it has a beast in the basement...looks to be missing parts and I haven't been able to find out anything about a Holland coal burner or if its worth trying to fix and use...

Welcome!

What you have there is a coal stoker conversion add-on to go from hand fed to be auto-loaded...likely was built for soft or bituminous coal which would of been sized properly to move through an auger tube feeder into the air induced burn pot.

If it is not all there, then not likely going to over come the up hill battle to make it work out at this day and time...
