See that the knob is turned clockwise to a
full stop.
2. Check that the
control knob on the
fire pit is turned off.
3. Remove the
protective cap from
the LP tank valve
and coupling nut,
if present.
4. Hold the regulator
in one hand and
insert the nipple
into the valve outlet.
Be sure the nipple
is centered in the
valve outlet. The
coupler connects
to the large outside
threads on the valve outlet
5. Hand tighten the coupler clockwise until it
comes to a full stop. Firmly tighten by
hand only.
The fire pit is to be used only with the 20
pound, vertical standing vapor withdrawal type
tank. This fire pit is designed to operate on
propane gas only. The 20 lb LP cylinder used
with this fire pit must conform to the following
requirements:
• Type 1 Connections
• Diameter - 12" / 31.1cm
• Height - 18.25" / 46cm
• 9.07 kg / 20 lb LPG capacity or 21.6 kg /
47.6 lb water capacity
• Must be provided with a listed overfilling
prevention device
The gas cylinder used must include a collar
to protect the cylinder valve. The cylinder
supply system must be arranged for vapor
withdrawal.
Follow the instructions stated on gas cylinder
tanks when filling or transporting tanks.
Failure to do so could result in problems
relating to overfilling, excessive venting
release of gas and to regulator freezing. Never
fill the cylinder more than 80 percent full.
CAUTION
In the connection process, the HVR side
of the connection will seal on the back
check in the valve, resulting in a slight
resistance. The connection requires about
one-half to three quarters additional turn
to complete connection. Any fuel supply
cylinder used must be constructed and
marked in accordance with specifications for
propane cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT)CFR 49 or CAN/CSA
B339.
Do not allow dirt or foreign material to get
into or onto tank connection when it is not
attached to the fuel supply system. Use the
protective cap provided. Place dust cap on
cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is
not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on
the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with
the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs
may result in leakage of propane. Cylinders
must be filled before initial use. All handling,
transport, filling and storage of LP gas
cylinders must be in accordance with NFPA
58 Storage and Handling of Liquid Petroleum
Gasses, or CAN/CSA b149.2 Propane
Installation Code.
CAUTION
The gas pressure regulator provided with
this appliance must be used. This regulator
is set for an outlet pressure of 11" H20.
Replacement pressure regulators and hose
assemblies must be those specified by the
fire pit manufacturer. See rating sticker on
side of fire pit for regulator model number.
The regulator/hose assembly should be
handled carefully to prevent contamination
by foreign objects and dirt. The assembly
should be inspected before use and any dirt
or contamination should be wiped off. The
hose assembly must be replaced prior to the
appliance being used if there is any evidence
of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the
hose is damaged. In order to insure proper
operation, any replacement of the regulator
assembly must be with parts authorized by
manufacturer. Valve/pressure regulators
are factory set to the correct operating
pressures. No attempts should be made to
adjust these settings.
(B) Nipple
has to be
centered
into the LP
tank valve
(C) Hold
coupling nut
and regulator
as shown
for proper
connection to
LP tank valve
