If the fire pit is already installed then remove all media
before beginning installation and turn OFF gas supply.
Step #1
Prepare the fire pit pan by first removing the two
screws from the 1” x 2” metal cover plate exposing the
rectangular hole then align the burner leg as shown in Fig. 2
The inside edge of the burner leg should be approximately
3/4-inch away from the inside edge of rectangular hole (See
Fig. 1).
Step #2
Remove the two stainless steel nuts from the probe
assembly but leave it assembled, then carefully slide the
orange and black wires from the top of the pan through
square hole in the fire pit pan resting over the burner leg
and install the screws through the existing holes of the cover
plate (See Fig. 3).
Step #3
Insert the two stainless steel screws from the probe
assembly through the existing cover plate holes attach the
two nuts previously removed and secure into place. Ensure
the assembly sits flat against the fire pit pan (See Fig. 4).
CAUTION:
Ensure the probes are not touching the rain-
shield or the piezo will not spark at the tip of the probes. If
necessary you can adjust the rainshield by loosening the
screw inside the rainshield bracket, pushing it down and
retightening the screw. Fig. 3 shows proper spacing of probe
to rainshield.

spur burner (See Fig. 1).
When looking at the pan from a top view (see arrows) the
rectanglar ignitor hole MUST be at the bottom of the spur
burner leg, not the top. IF NOT, DO NOT USE! THIS KIT
