Owner’s Manual

STEP 1
Enclosed are four bags of rocks and one factory installed 10′ propane-rated hose with attached regulator.
STEP 2
Remove plastic bags containing the rocks.
STEP 3
Open the bag containing the smaller rocks labeled conveniently for you “Put Me In First” and arrange in burner area.
STEP 4
Next, open the bag of medium sized rocks, labeled conveniently for you “Put Me In Second” and place over small rocks.
STEP 5
Finally open the bag of larger rocks, labeled conveniently for you “Put Me In Last” and arrange over top of the medium rocks.
STEP 6
The fourth bags of rocks are included as spares and are labeled “Spare Rocks.”
Note To User:
Cover must be removed when burner is in operation.
Before igniting the unit for the first time, follow steps one through 5 in the below Ignition section.
Mix a solution of liquid soap and water in a spray bottle, and apply to the gas fittings you have just connected.
If parts of the fitting begin to produce bubbles, spray liquid, or if you smell liquid propane gas, immediately close the valve on the tank, and leave the unit for at least an hour undisturbed to allow excess gas to escape.
After an hour, disconnect the hose and take the unit to a certified propane technician for consultation.
Rocks are not to exceed a maximum weight of 5 kgs or 11 lbs.
STEP 7
Ensure that unit valve dial is in the “OFF” position by pushing and turning clockwise until the dial stops.

STEP 8
Securely attach regulator (large end of hose) to your propane cylinder.

STEP9
Extend hose to full length and ensure that the propane tank is as far as safely possible from the fire pit.
STEP 10
Slowly” turn cylinder valve to the open position.
NOTE: Opening the valve too quickly may activate the excess-flow valve in your propane cylinder, decreasing gas flow dramatically. In this case, shut valve off and re-open very slowly.
STEP 11
Using a lighter or match, ignite lighter and hold flame slightly above the burner, then open the valve on the appliance slowly by turning (counter- clockwise) until the unit ignites.
Step 12
Set dial to desired flame height.
Warning: Ensure that no parts of your body, clothing, or any other combustible material are above the burner before, during and after ignition.

Periodic Inspection of burner flames:

Upon igniting the appliance, visually verify that the burner is indeed burning as demonstrated in the image below. The presence of flames will confirm that the burner is burning. Periodically check that the burner flame is present during operation by visually inspecting the burner to ensure the presence of flames.
If there are no flames present, the appliance is likely not burning. If this is the case, IMMEDIATELY turn the valve to the “off” position if it is not already and repeat the ignition procedure as outlined in Steps 7-12.
NOTE: When fire pit is on:The burner will display blue and yellow flames. These flames should not be yellow or produce thick black smoke. This would indicate an obstruction of airflow through the burners. The flame should be blue and straight yellow tops. If excessive yellow flames are detected, turn off the burner.

Extinguishing the appliance:

Step 1
Turn cylinder valve to the “Closed” position.
Step 2
Turn appliance valve to the “Off” position by pushing and turning knob clockwise.
Step 3
Allow unit to cool for at least five (5) minutes before relighting.
