No Gas Flow

| Check if the LP gas tank is empty. If empty, replace and refill. If the propane tank is not empty, refer to Problem: Sudden drop in gas flow on the following page.

Coupling nut and regulator not fully connected

| Turn the coupling nut about one half to three fourths a turn, until you feel a solid stop. Do not use tools, tighten by hand only.
Obstruction of gas flow| Check for bent or kinked hose.
Spider webs or insect nest in the venturi| Clean the venturi.
Burner ports clogged or blocked| Reference Problem: Irregular flame pattern on the following page. Clean the burner ports as described there.

The fire table emits a lot of

black smoke when in use

| Hose from gas fire table is pinched| Make sure the hose is not pinched between the fire table and the source of the gas.
Flame is being obstructed at burner ports or mixing chamber of the burn tube is blocked or obstructed| Make sure that the gas ports on the burner are free of any lava rocks/fire glass so that the flame can flow naturally.Clear out the mixing chamber located before the Venturi.

Sudden drop in gas flow, or a reduced flame height

| Out of Gas| Check for gas in the LP gas tank.

Excess flow safety device may have been activated

| Turn control knob to OFF, wait 30 seconds and light outdoor fire table.if flames are still too low, reset the excessive flow safety device by turning off the control knob and LP gas tank valve.

Disconnect regulator. Turn burner control knob to HIGH. Wait at least 5 minutes. Turn burner control knob off. Reconnect regulator and perform a leak check at tank connection. Turn LP gas tank valve on slowly, wait 30 seconds and then light outdoor fire table.

Irregular flame pattern, flame does not run the full length of the burner

| ****

Burner ports are clogged or blocked

| Clean burner ports.Do this by inserting a paperclip into each of the burner ports to ensure they are not clogged.

WARNING: Make sure burner is not on, and has had sufficient time to cool before touching it.

Flame blow out

| High or gusting winds| Increase flame to HIGH setting.
Low on LP gas| Replace or refill LP gas tank.
Excess flow valve tripped| Refer to Problem: Sudden drop in gas flow.
Flame seems to lose heat when burning in cold weather – temperature below 50°F| Ice has built up on the outside of the LP gas tank because the vaporization process is too low| Turn the control knob and the LP gas tank to OFF. Replace with a spare LP gas tank and resume burning. Store the spare LP gas tank in a well ventilated area, away from children.

Problem: Burner JUST LIGHT UP FOR SECOND AND WILL AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF

1. The thermocouple will be under the Pilot Guard on the top of the unit.
   Please remove the Pilot guard by unscrewing it from the metal bowl with a screw driver.

2. Once the Pilot Guard has been removed, you will have two components exposed; the copper one is your thermocouple. Please unscrew the nut holding the thermocouple in place.

3. Inside the unit, you will notice that the end of the thermocouple line is directly screwed to the gas valve. Please unscrew the thermocouple from the back end of the gas valve. Do not take off the valve’s silver backing, only unscrew the small vnut as shown above.

4. Screw the end of the thermocouple to the back end of the gas valve with the silver backing.
   Once this has been done, please test the unit. You may have to reset the gas valve once again as the safety mechanism may have been set off by the new components introduced:

Resetting Your Gas Valve
Completely detach the propane tank from the table. Do not forget to turn the propane tank valve down. Turn the heat knob to high and leave it on that setting for about two to three minutes.
Once you have done this, please turn the knob back to off. Hook up the propane tank and turn the propane tank’s valve a quarter of a turn at a time.

NOTE: When reattaching the propane tank, please turn the valve to release the gas back in to the unit VERY SLOWLY. We want the unit to register gas coming through but not too much at once, this will flood the unit and you will have to start all over!
This is so that the gas valve can register the gas coming through a little at a time. Once you have turned the gas on all the way please go ahead and try to light the table again. This should reset your fire table’s safety mechanism
