Do not operate under high wind conditions.

All installations are to conform to local codes.

In the absence of local codes, installation

should conform to the National Fuel Gas Code,

ANSIZ223.1/NFPA 54

Fire pit should be installed with the hose

regulator assembly extended at full length of

hose directly away from the burner. When so

congured, placement results in maximum tank

to re pit distance. When re pit is operated,

the hose/regulator and gas tank should be on

a line perpendicular to wind

direction. Placing tank closer

than 48” to the re pit can

overheat the tank and cause

release of propane through

relief openings and can result

in tank re or explosion.

Propane tank must be set

inside of the included tank

support ring. Do not use re

pit if tank is not inside of

support ring or with the tank

in the incorrect position.

CONNECTING THE LP TANK

1. The knob on the LP tank must

be closed. See that the knob is

turned clockwise to a full stop.

2. Check that the control knob

on the re 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.

6. Place the tank to

the side or rear of

the re pit. Make

sure the hose does

not touch any

part of the burner

drum housing.

The re pit is to be used only with the 20

pound, vertical standing vapor withdrawal type

tank. This re pit is designed to operate on

LP (Liqueed Propane) gas only. The 20 lb LP

cylinder used with this re pit must conform to

the following requirements:

• Type 1 Connections

• Diameter - 12” (30.5cm)

• Height - 18” (45.7cm)

• Maximum capacity of 20 pounds

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 lling or transporting tanks. Failure

to do so could result in problems relating to

overlling, excessive venting release of gas and

to regulator freezing. Never ll the cylinder

more than 80 percent full.

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 lled before initial

use. All handling, transport, lling 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.

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 identication. 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.

CHECKING FOR LEAKS

1. After all connections are completed, check all

connections and ttings 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 ttings.

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 re pit until all leaks are

corrected.

Care should be taken to protect the fuel supply

hose from damage from either foot or vehicle

trafc. If the re pit is not in use, the gas must

be turned off at the supply cylinder and the

cylinder should be disconnected from the re pit.

Storage of the re pit indoors is only permissible

if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from

the re pit.

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 high

position. Ignitor will spark and gas will ignite.

Wait 15 seconds after ignition before releasing

knob. If ame does not ignite immediately, turn

the gas valve off and wait 5 minutes before

attempting to relight. If re 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 high and watch for spark. Once electrode is

working properly relight the appliance. If ame

is extinguished, wait 5 minutes before relighting.

Failure to follow these instructions exactly could

result in re, serious injury or death.

SHUTTING THE FIRE PIT OFF

Turn the control knob at the regulator off by

turning clockwise The burner ame 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 ame at the burner to ensure a

proper ame.

To protect

your re

pit from

weather,

always keep

your re

pit covered

while not

in use. The

cover must be removed and stored safely away

from the re pit when the re pit is in use.

CLEANING

Clean the stand of the re pit using hot soapy

water. High temperature spray paint can be used

to touch up any scratches in the paint. Use a wire

brush to remove any loose paint before touching

up. Make sure to dry thoroughly before use.

The rocks can be removed from the re pit and

cleaned using soapy water or sprayed off using a

hose sprayer. The outside of the burner may be

wiped clean using soapy water. A pipe cleaner

can be used to remove any spider webs from the

venturi tube.

(B) Nipple

has to be

centered into

the LP tank

valve

coupling nut

and regulator

as shown

for proper

connection to

LP tank valve

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 specied by the

re pit manufacturer. See rating sticker on

side of re 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.

CAUTION

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 specied by the manufacturer.

CAUTION

The re pit can become very hot while in

use. Do not touch any portion of the re

pit except for the control knob next to

the regulator. It may be necessary to use

protective gloves.

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 specications for

propane cylinders of the U.S. Department of

Transportation (DOT)CFR 49 or CAN/CSA B339.
