Too hot?

Ok guys,in the case of a overfire situation in a insert.how do ya shut it down? The air is already closed as far as it goes and i must have stuffed it too full.its burning about 750 on two seprate thermos the laser and the manual...
So how do i get this back under control???
On my other wood burners (furnace and fireplace) i shut the air down at both ends and rein it in in the osburn 2400 you only have the incoming air and i dont think it fully closes.

Not intuitive but swing the door wide open to break the vacuum from the secondary burn tubes. Watch out for popping out burning embers but the cold air in rush will turn it into a open fireplace and the heat will go up the chimney. When it gets back down to six hundred or so close the door and go back to regular burn.

Thanks bart! I actually was doing just that as you replied.lol got a couple of puffs in the house but it helped...slowly creeping down as we speak.
I do love this insert though, the furnace has only kicked on twice in the morning(in the last week) when i didnt get up to reload during the night.19 outside a toasty 70-74 inside.
