PROPANE (LP) DANGERS AND WARNINGS

LP GAS
LP gas is flammable and hazardous if handled improperly. Familiarize yourself with its hazards before using any LP gas product.

PROPANE HAZARDS

• Flammable, explosive under pressure, heavier than air and settles in pools in low areas.
• In its natural state, propane has no odor. For your safety, an odorant has been added.
• Contact with propane could burn your skin.
• Propane is extremely flammable and hazardous if handled improperly.

LP GAS WARNINGS

• Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of reach of children.
• Disconnected cylinders must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed and must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
• Never use a propane cylinder with a damaged body, valve, collar or footing.
• Dented or rusted propane cylinders may be hazardous and should be checked by your propane gas supplier.
• Be sure to use only one 20 lb (9.1 kg) LP gas cylinder with a Type 1 valve with this appliance as required by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Canadian Standards Steering Committee.
• Only tanks marked “propane” may be used.
• The installation of this unit must adhere to local codes or either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223. 1/NFPA54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.
• LP gas tank must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
• The LP gas tank must have a listed overfilling prevention device (OPD) and a QCCI Type I (CGA810) LP gas tank connection.
• The LP gas tank must have a tank collar to protect the tank valve.
• Never use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar, or footing. Dented or rusted LP gas tanks may be hazardous.
• The LP gas tank should not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Tanks must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children. Do NOT store in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
• Never store your LP gas tank where temperatures can reach over 125°F (52°C).
• Do not store the LP gas cylinder in direct sunlight or near a source of heat or combustion.
• Never keep a filled LP gas tank in a hot car or car trunk. Heat will cause the gas pressure to increase, which may open the relief valve and allow gas to escape.
• Place dust cap on valve outlet whenever the LP gas tank is not in use. Only install the recommended type of dust cap on the LP gas tank and the LP gas tank valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
• Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near this appliance.
• Never fill the LP gas cylinder beyond 80% full.
• If the information in (a) and (b) is not followed exactly, a fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
• LP gas cylinders should be filled only by a certified LP gas dealer.
• The pressure regulator is set for 11 in. wc (2.74 kPa)
• The maximum inlet propane gas pressure for this outdoor fire table is 250 PSI; the minimum inlet propane gas pressure for this outdoor fire table is 25 PSI.
• The maximum inlet natural gas pressure for this outdoor re table is 10.5 in. wc.
• The minimum inlet natural gas pressure for this outdoor re table is 3.5 in. wc
• Never attempt to attach this appliance to the self-contained LP gas system of a camper trailer, motor home or house.
• Always use the pressure regulator and hose assembly provided with the appliance to connect to a LP gas cylinder. Never connect to an unregulated LP gas supply. For technical support contact the service center at 1-800-986-3460.
• Hand turn the manual gas control valve. Never use tools. If the valve will not turn by hand, do not try to repair it. Call a certified gas technician. The use of force or any self-attempted repair may result in a fire or explosion.
• Constructed and marked in accordance with the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) Specifications for LP-Gas Cylinders or , the Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339, as applicable.

When Connecting Your Gas Cylinder

• Before connecting, be sure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, head of the regulator valve or in the ports.
• Connect regulator valve and hand-tighten firmly. Disconnect the propane cylinder from the regulator valve when the fire table is not in use. DO NOT obstruct the flow of combustion air and ventilation air to the burner.

HOSE AND REGULATOR ASSEMBLY AND REPLACEMENT

• This fire table comes equipped with a standard LP gas hose and regulator including the appliance side connection for a CGA No. 791 Cylinder Connection Device. The LP gas hose and regulator supplied with this fire table must be used. Only a hose and regulator specified by manufacturer can be used for replacement.
• The CGA No. 791 connection incorporates a magnetic flow limiting device that acts to limit the flow of gas if a leak is detected between the regulator and the burner valve.
• If the burner valve is open prior to the LP gas cylinder service valve being opened, the connection will interpret this free flow of gas to be a leak.
• The connection safety feature will reduce gas flow from the regulator to the appliance to a minimal level.
• Be sure that the burner control valve is closed prior to opening the LP gas cylinder service valve to ensure that the connection flow limiting device is not triggered mistakenly.
• If the connection flow limiting device is triggered mistakenly, close the LP gas cylinder service valve and the burner valve, wait 10 seconds to allow the device to reset, open the cylinder service valve, then open the burner valve and light the fire table as per lighting instructions.
• Be sure to protect the hose from any hot surfaces. Serious danger may result if the hose contacts any hot surface.
• Regular maintenance of the hose and regulator:
• Inspect the hose before each use of the fire table. If the hose shows signs of cracks, abrasions, cuts or damage of any kind, do not operate the appliance. Fix or replace the hose as required before using the appliance. For assistance with repair or replacement of the hose, call the service center at 1-800-986-3460. Use only replacement parts from the manufacturer.
• Inspect the seal inside the CGA No. 791 service valve on the LP gas cylinder when replacing the cylinder or at least once per year. If there is any indication of damage, have the seal replaced by a certified gas dealer before operating the appliance.
• Do not use tools to tighten the CGA No. 791 connection nut onto the LP gas cylinder service valve. Hand tighten only.
• Be careful to not cross the threads on the connection when tightening the CGA No. 791 connection onto the LP gas cylinder service valve.
• A leak test should always be performed after attaching the connection to LP gas cylinder service valve. See Step 5, “Tank/Gas Line connection Leak Test”, in the “Operation” section of this manual. For connection instructions, see Steps 1–2 in the “Operation” section of this manual.

GLASS BEADS WARNING

• Glass beads may have sharp edges. Wear safety glasses and gloves when handling.
• If changing or substituting the glass beads with other media, use lava rocks/pumice stones/glass shards/glass beads available from your local authorized dealer/distributor.
• Pour the glass beads evenly into the burner area (with the exception of the screen, if applicable). The glass beads should be 1/2 to 1 in. (1.2 to 2.5 cm) above the burner.
  

CAUTION: Do not exceed a height of 1 in. (2.5 cm) above the burner when placing glass beads or other media. Ensure no media covers the igniter screen. Store any excess glass beads in a safe location.

• Keep away from the unit for the first 20 minutes after igniting your unit for the first time, as lava rocks/pumice stones/glass beads could pop out and cause injury. Should any rocks pop out, discard them.
• Always ensure that lava rocks/pumice stones/glass shards/glass beads are completely dry before use. Failure to do so will cause them to crack or pop.
