IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
A.
Before installing this Outdoor Fire Pit, check “Minimum Clearance to Combustibles” on page 2.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES
must be maintained when you install this Outdoor Fire Pit.
THERE MUST
BE AT LEAST 60”
(1.5 m) from the center of the burner to any combustible sidewall, ceiling, or material.
The Outdoor Fire Pit is for outdoor use only. DO NOT install or use this appliance inside a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area including recreational vehicles and/or boats.
This unit must be
installed in such a manner that proper air ventilation is maintained without obstruction at all times, and
during all weather conditions.
B.
CHECK GAS TYPE (natural gas or propane): The gas supply you intend to use may not be the same as that
stated on your outdoor rating plate.
THIS FIRE PIT IS CONSTRUCTED FOR USE WITH PROPANE
GAS
. If the
gas supply is different,
or you wish to change to natural gas, you MUST have the Fire Pit Converted (method
described on page 8) to the gas type you intend to use, by a qualified, professional technician
. If you are
unsure, contact your dealer for assistance.
C.
DO NOT USE IF GAS PRESSURE IS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OR EXCEEDS THE
MAXIMUM.
F.
Gas piping system must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure at the maximum flow rate (BTU/hr). Undue
pressure loss will occur if the pipe is too small or the run is too long.

FOR NATURAL GAS:
The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment is
5 inches
(127
mm) water column and maximum inlet gas supply pressure is
10 inches
(254 mm) water column.
FOR PROPANE:
The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment is
8 inches
(203 mm) water column and the maximum inlet gas supply pressure is
13 inches
(330 mm) water column.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNIT IF MINIMUM PRESSURE IS NOT AVAILABLE OR IF MAXIMUM PRESSURE IS
EXCEEDED.
G.
If the Outdoor Fire Pit is connected to Natural Gas, its main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5kPa).
INSTALLER NOTE: This unit should be installed so that it can be removed at a later date for service.
GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
Apply only joint compounds that are resistant to all gasses on all male pipe fittings. Make sure to tighten every
joint securely. Do not use pipe joint compound to connect flare fittings.
I.
J.
SAFETY NOTE: An external on/off valve in the gas line is required for safety when your Outdoor
Fire Pit is not in use. It also provides for convenient maintenance and repair.
K.
Casual Fireside Fire Pits are suitable for installation from 0 - 4500 ft. without modification.
H.
If the Outdoor Fire Pit is connected to Natural Gas, it must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less than ½ psi (3.5kPa).
L.
Propane Regulator Hose:
Always inspect the condition of the propane regulator hose before each operation.
Any signs of excessive abrasion MUST BE REPLACED. Contact your local dealer for replacement part
Location Regulator Hose
(when used): The propane regulator hose is located inside the fire pit door panel.
When installed, make sure the hose is secured inside the unit and
DOES NOT TOUCH THE BURNER PAN.
