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.
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.
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.

CAUTION
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. Wait 15 seconds after ignition
before releasing knob. 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.
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. The cover must be removed and stored
safely away from the fire pit when the fire pit is in use. If the
fire pit is not in use, the gas must be turned off at the supply
cylinder and the cylinder should be disconnected from the fire
pit. Storage of the fire pit indoors is only permissible if the
cylinder is disconnected and removed from the fire pit.
