Read and understand before assembly and use of re pit

1. If putting your re pit on a lawn, mark
a 40-inch diameter circle and remove all
sod and roots inside the circle. Dig
approximately 2 inches deep. If putting
your re pit on a patio, mark the circle with
chalk and skip ahead to step 4.
2. Check the level of the soil inside the
circle in all directions. Remove soil from
the high spots to bring it close to level.
3. Add 1.5-2 inches of paver base to
your circle and rake it level. Using a
tamper, pack the entire area of paver base
until rm. Make sure the surface is level
before laying blocks.
4. Place 14 wall block units on top of
paver base. Lay them tightly together to
form the circle. Level each stone front-to-
back and side-to-side. Make sure each
stone is even with the previously leveled
block. Use a rubber mallet to level.
5. After the 1st course is set and leveled,
start the 2nd course by placing the center
of the top block in alignment with the joint
between the blocks below. Continue this
all the way around the circle.
6. Once the 2nd course is all lined up,
carefully remove one block at a time and
apply two thick beads of concrete adhesive
to the center of the blocks. Reinstall the
block and push down rmly. Continue for
all remaining blocks on 2nd course.

7. After the 2nd layer is nished, install
the 3rd by placing the center of each
block in line with the joint of the blocks
below. When the 3rd course is all lined up,
glue the blocks one-at-a-time as in step 6.
8. Next, assemble the 4-piece re ring
liner and tighten all bolts. Lower the re pit
liner inside the blocks. The outside ange
of the ring should be centered and rest on
the inside edge of wall block units.
9. After the adhesive cure time has
lapsed, pour lava rock into the re pit until
the level reaches the bottom of the re
ring liner.
