CONNECTING THE LP TANK

1. Check that the LP tank valve knob on the LP tank is turned clockwise to the closed position.
2. Check that the red flame adjustment knob on the FireCan™ regulator hose is turned counter-clockwise to the off position.
3. Remove the protective cap from the LP tank valve and coupling nut, if present.
4. Hold the regulator in one hand and tighten the QCC coupling turning clockwise until it comes to a full stop. Firmly tight by hand only.
5. Place the tank to the side or rear of the FireCan™. Make sure the hose does not touch any part of the FireCan™ housing.

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 specified by the manufacturer.

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 leak check solution (50/50 mix of dishwashing soap detergent and water) to all gas carrying connections and fittings.
3. Open tank valve. The presence of bubbles at areas of the wet solution indicated 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

Not intended for commercial use. For outdoor use only. Use only in well- ventilated spaces. Do not operate in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

Minimum Clearance from the sides and back of the appliance to any material is 36” and from the top is 72”. Do not use it under the overhead structure.

LIGHTING & ADJUSTMENT

• WARNING: Make sure the lid is completely removed from FireCan™ and legs are fully extended before lighting.
• INSTRUCTION NS FOR USE:

1. Slowly rotate the LP tank valve knob Counter-Clockwise to a fully “OPEN” position (approximately 2.5 full rotations).
2. With hand ready on red Flame Adjustment Knob, place elongated lighter (BBQ style lighter) in Ignition Hole on side of FireCan™ and ignite lighter.
3. Slowly rotate Flame Adjustment Knob clockwise, about 1/2 of a rotation until you hear fuel starting to flow.
4. Place lighter flame near FireCan™ burner and wait for FireCan™ to Ignite. Warning: If FireCan™ does not ignite within 10 seconds, turn Flame Adjustment Valve to “OFF” and repeat step #2.
5. Afterburner is ignited, adjust the Flame by rotating the red Flame Adjustment Knob Clockwise for the larger flames, and Counter-Clockwise for the smaller flame.

TIPS:

• 3 full rotations are full pressure and maximum flame. This should be reserved for extreme conditions and used at higher elevations.
• One to 1-1/2 rotations is generally a good flame height
• GOT A LOW FLAME?: If your FireCan™ experiences low flame, or flame height does not appear to be normally adjusted by the Flame Adjustment knob, it is likely that the CSA excess flow safety device has been tripped in the hose regulator. If this occurs, turn the LP tank knob to the closed position and the Flame Adjustment Knob to the off position and start over from step one above.

CAUTION: DO not move or re-position the FireCan™ while in use.

EXTINGUISHING & BREAK DOWN

• CAUTION FireCan™ will get VERY HOT. Do not touch while in use or after use until the product has cooled down.
• TO DISCONTINUE USE:
  • Turn Flame Adjustment Knob (Red Plastic) Counter-Clockwise until the valve is fully closed. The flame will start to diminish within 1 minute.
  • After the flame is extinguished, rotate the valve on Propane Tank Clockwise to fully close.
  • LET THE FIRECAN™ COOL DOWN FOR AT LEAST 10 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING OR REMOVING THE HOSE.
  • After cool, remove Quick-Connect Socket from FireCan™ and remove hose connector from LP tank valve.
  • When the fire is cool to the touch, it is safe to coil and place the hose inside.
  • Reconnect lid by placing lid hinge on FireCan™ bar in an approximately 90-degree “open” position. Rotate lid closed to engage hinge.
  • Engage clasp-lock, and press down firmly until handle snaps down in closed position.
  • Break down Quick-Snap legs for easy packing and storage.

PERIODIC INSPECTION:

• Keep your FireCan™ out of the rain and store it in a dry place.
• This device has been engineered to provide the maximum amount of heat and comfort. If you experience any signs of your propane cylinder ‘freezing off’ or start to experience lower flames than usual, please simply turn the burner control setting to low for 5–10 minutes, or replace the cylinder with a full one.
• Ensure that you clean the inside and outside of the housing of your FireCan™ by wiping down combustion particulates with a rag after the housing has fully cooled down.
