Cylinders must be suitably tied down during
transport. Do not place any other items on top
of cylinders at any time.
Cylinders are not to be exposed to excessive
temperatures or high heat. Refer to the
data plate for model identification. Units are
factory equipped for use on only one type of
fuel. These units cannot be, and should not
be used on other types of fuels. Doing so
can cause severe damage to the unit and the
installation area and the added risk of serious
injury. Any attempt to operate this product
on fuels for which it is not designed voids the
manufacturer’s warranty.
This unit is not to be utilized with a non-self-
contained LP-gas supply system.
WARNING
Appliance must be leak checked outdoors
in well-ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas fired or electrical
appliances. During leak test, keep appliance
away from open flames or sparks.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
1. After all connections are completed, check
all connections and fittings for leaks with a
soap solution.
2. With all valves closed, apply the leak check
solution (50/50 mix of dish washing soap
detergent and water) to all gas carrying
connections and fittings.
3. Open tank valve. Presence of bubbles at
areas of wet solution indicates a gas leak.
If leaks are detected or you smell or hear
gas, shut off the valve and repair the leak or
replace the defective part. Do not use the
fire pit until all leaks are corrected.
WARNING
The burner must be inspected before
each use of the appliance. If it is evident
that the burner is damaged it must be
replaced before the appliance is put into
use. The burner must be replaced only by
factory authorized parts as specified by the
manufacturer.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Lighting Procedures
1. Check all connections for leaks using the
“soapy water” test.
2. Check for any blockage to the venturi tube
or burner. Remove any foreign objects or
matter.
3. Be sure the burner control knob is “OFF”.
4. Open the LP cylinder valve ONLY 1-1/2
turns by turning counterclockwise.
5. Push knob in and turn slowly to the low
position. Ignitor will spark and gas will
ignite. If flame does not ignite immediately,
turn the gas valve off and wait 5 minutes
before attempting to relight. If fire pit does
not light, check ignition electrode wire.
Turn gas off at the supply cylinder. Check
spark gap and make sure wire is 1/8" from
burner port. Make sure rock isn’t touching
the ignitor wire. Turn knob slowly to low
and watch for spark. Once electrode is
working properly relight the appliance.
If flame is extinguished, wait 5 minutes
before relighting. Failure to follow these
instructions exactly could result in fire,
serious injury or death.
WARNING
The fire pit can become very hot while in
use. Do not touch any portion of the fire
pit except for the control knob next to
the regulator. It may be necessary to use
protective gloves.
SHUTTING THE FIRE PIT OFF
Turn the control knob off by turning clockwise
The burner flame should then go out. Turn
off the LP cylinder valve by turning the knob
clockwise until it stops. Follow instructions
in this manual for proper storage procedures
and the important warnings and safe guards
on pages. When an LP tank is not connected,
and to help prevent dirt or other foreign
particles from clogging the HVR, hang the end
of the HVR hose from the outer ring.
Inspect the flame at the burner to ensure a
proper flame.
To protect your fire pit from weather, always
keep your fire pit covered while not in use.
