Open the box of lava rocks, put the lava rocks (L) into the fire bowl of the fire table, (see Figure 9). A gas fire pit requires 13.2 lbs lava rocks.
WARNING
Keep children away during assembly, as this item contains lava rock, which are small pieces and can be swallowed by children.
NOTE: Leave the pilot box uncovered by the lava rock.
CAUTION: Please be advised that this fire pit is equipped with natural lava rock that may crackle or pop the first time it is used. The lava rock has been pre-heat treated to release any natural inherent moisture. However, in rare cases on first-time use, the lava rock may pop or burst causing small pieces of hot rock to potentially be a projectile. These hot pieces could cause injury or property damage. As a precaution, please follow these instructions the first time the fire pit is used: -
On first use, do not stand over or near the fire pit once lit.
-
Light the fire pit and let it run on high for 20 minutes.
-
Once lit, do not go within 12 feet of the fire pit for at least the first 20 minutes on the first use to ensure any residual moisture trapped in the rocks gets released.
-
After the first heating cycle there is little further concern. It is rare that any crackling will happen on the first use, this is simply a precaution.
-
Keep lava rock covered and dry while not in use to prevent additional moisture from getting in the rocks.
-
If lava rocks are exposed to moisture after first use, run the burner on low to gradually warm and dry the rocks before repeating steps 1 through 3.
-
Open the door panel (D). Place the gas cylinder into the gas cylinder support (K) and connect the regulator by turning the black handle clockwise to tighten. To remove the regulator, turn the black handle counter-clockwise. Secure the gas cylinder by tightening clockwise the retention point found on gas cylinder support (K), (see Figure 10), so that the gas cylinder cannot move from side to side or fall down. The knob on the control panel is turned all the way to the “OFF” position when the fire pit in NOT in use.
-
Once the firepit has cooled completely after use, carefully place the lid (A) onto the fire bowl and use the weather cover (M) to protect your fire pit from the elements, (see Figure 11).
WARNING
Allow 30 minutes after use for fire pit to cool down before placing the lid to
prevent scalding.
NATURAL GAS CONVERSION
NATURAL GAS CONVERSION STOP
Natural gas conversion must be performed only by natural gas provider or a service company.
-
Disconnect the propane hose from the gas valve (see Figure 12).
Caution: The propane tank shall be shut off prior to disconnecting the propane hose, before proceeding with the conversion. -
Unscrew and disconnect the propane orifice from the bellows (see Figure 13). Propane orifice (2.21 mm diameter size) is painted with red mark.
-
Replace the propane orifice withs the natural gas orifice and screw the natural gas orifice to the bellows tightly. Then connect and tighten the natural gas orifice to the inlet tube (see Figure 14). The Natural gas orifice (4.18 mm diameter size ) is painted with a black mark.
-
Connect the natural gas hose to the gas valve by screwing clockwise tightly (see Figure 15). Plug the natural gas fixture into the natural gas supply system (see Figure 16). The conversion kit should be CSA certified. Below are several suggested CSA-certifie conversion kits for your reference.
-
Part# DH22 / QH1, manufacturer: KSUN or
-
Part# WH02 / KJ50A2, manufacturer: Laite or
-
Part# KJ-3/8G-3/8 / KJ-3/8G, manufacturer: Wanan
The natural gas orifice is included in the package. Please follow the instructions for gas conversion. -
Stick and cover the conversion label onto the propane rating plate (see Figure 17).
WARNING :
This conversion kit shall be installed by a qualified service agency in
accordance with the manufacturer’s intructions and all applicable codes and
requirements of the Authority Having Jurisdiction. If the information in these
instructions is not followed exactly, a fire, explosion or production of
carbon monoxide may result causing property damage, personal injury or loss of
life.
The qualified service agency is responsible for the proper installation of
this kit. The installation is not proper and complete until the operation of
the converted appliance is checked as specified in the manufacturer’s
instructions supplied with the kit.
OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Battery
Make sure the control knob is in the “OFF” position. Unscrew the push button cap on the ignitor module located on the control panel to access the battery compartment. The ignitor module requires one AAA size battery, (see Figure 18). BATTERY IS NOT INCLUDED.
WARNING:
- Please observe proper polarity and use the correct battery type when installing or replacing the battery. Improper installation could result in ignition failure.
- Please remove the battery if consumed or if product is to be left unused for a long period of time.
Leak test
To prevent fire or explosion hazard when testing for a leak:
- Always perform the leak test as described below before lighting this appliance or each time the cylinder is connected for use.
- Do not smoke or allow other sources of ignition in the area while conducting a leak test.
- Conduct the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
- Do not use matches, lighters or a flame to check for leaks.
- Do not use this appliance until any and all leaks are corrected. If you are unable to stop a leak, disconnect the propane supply and call a gas appliance service shop or your local propane gas supplier.
To perform a leak test:
- Make 2~3 oz. of leak solution by mixing one part liquid dishwasher detergent and three parts water. Noted: make sure control knob is “OFF”.
- Apply several drops of solution where the cylinder attaches to regulator, (see Figure 19), inspect the solution at the connection looking for bubbles. If NO bubbles appear, the connection is secure. If bubbles appear, the connection has the leak, disconnect the regulator, reconnect, perform another leak check. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, cylinder valve is defective and should be returned to cylinder’s supplier.
- Apply several drops of solution where natural gas xture attaches to natural gas supply system connection (see Figure 20), If NO bubbles appear, the connections are secure. If bubbles appear, the connection has the leak, disconnect, reconnect, perform another leak check. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, the conversion hose is defective and should replace with a new one.
- Apply several drops of solution where gas valve attaches to bellows, (see Figure 21), where gas valve attaches to regulator hose, (see Figure 22), and where inlet tube attaches to bellows, (see Figure 23). If NO bubbles appear, the connections are secure. If bubbles appear, the connection has the leak, disconnect, reconnect, perform another leak check. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, both parts are defective and should replace with the new ones.
Lighting Instructions
- Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to “OFF”.
- Turn gas control knob to “ON/MIN”.
- Push in gas control knob all the way and hold. Continue to press the ignition button for 15 seconds.
- If the burner does not light in 15 seconds, release the knob and it will pop back out. Wait 5 minutes before attempting to light the burner again and repeat step 1 to 3.
To turn off gas
- Push in gas control knob slightly and turn to “OFF”.
WARNING:
For your safety, read and follow the Lighting Instructions in this manual and
in the Rating Plate on the appliance. IMPROPER LIGHTING PROCEDURES COULD
RESULT IN A FIRE HAZARD OR EXPLOSION HAZARD OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, INJURY OR LOSS
OF LIFE.
Observe Flame Height When Lit: The burner will display blue and yellow flames. These flames should be a blue / yellow color between 1~2 in. height, (see Figure 25). These flames should not be yellow or produce thick smoke. This would indicate an obstruction of airflow through the burners. The flames should be blue with straight yellow tops.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
To enjoy the outstanding performance from your fire pit, make sure you perform the following activities on a regular basis:
-
Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive cleaning agents.

-
Gas odor with extreme yellow tipping of flame.
-
Fire pit does NOT reach the desired temperature.
-
Fire pit flame is excessively uneven.
-
Fire pit makes popping noises.
-
Spiders and insects can nest in burner or orifice. This dangerous condition can damage fire pit and render it unsafe for use.
Clean burner holes by using a heavy-duty pipe clearer. Compressed air may help clear away small particles. -
Carbon deposits may create a fire hazard. Clean burner with warm soapy water if any carbon deposits develop.
-
Cover your fire pit with an outdoor weather cover when not in use to protect it from the elements.
