INSTALLATION
1. Carefully unpack all items from the box. Place the base in the final position. There must
be a minimum of 24 in / 60.96 cm of clearance from the side of the table top to any
combustible walls.
2. Attach the back panel to two side panels by using four 1/4"x20 mm bolts and Ø6.5x1.0 mm
washers as shown in Figure 2. Guide the bolts through the holes in the back panel, into the
pre-drilled holes in the side panel. Hand tighten only 2-3 turns. Repeat for the door panel.
Figure 2

3. Attach the leg connector bracket to the firepit base by using four 1/4"x55 mm bolts and
Ø6.5x1.0 mm washers as shown in Figure 3. Guide the bolts through the holes in the leg
connector bracket, into the pre-drilled holes in the firepit base. Hand tighten only 2-3 turns.
Figure 3
4. Attach the firepit base to the table top by using four 1/4"x20 mm bolts and Ø20xØ6.5x2.0
mm washers as shown in Figure 4. Hand tighten only 2-3 turns.
Figure 4
5. Attach a leg to the tabletop by using two 1/4"x20 mm bolts and Ø20xØ6.5x2.0 mm washers
as shown in Figure 5. Hand tighten only 2-3 turns. Attach a leg to the leg connector bracket by
using two 1/4"x20 mm bolts and Ø6.5x1.0 mm washers as shown in Figure 4. Hand tighten
only 2-3 turns. Repeat this process for the other three legs.
Figure 5

6. After making any necessary adjustments to the alignment of the parts, use the hex bolt
driver to tighten all bolts. Repeat until all bolts are tight. Do not over tighten. Over tightening
may strip bolts.
7. Pour ALL of the media (fire ice or lava rock, not included) into the burner pan. The burner
MUST be completely covered to ensure the appliance functions properly and safely. Remove
any lava rocks or fire ice on top of the ignition well. See figure 6.
Figure 6
8. Slide the tank drawer out and place the LP tank in the drawer. Connect the regulator as
shown in Figure 7. Turn the black handle clockwise to tighten. Turn the handle
counterclockwise to remove. The hose must point down. Check that the valve is turned all the
way clockwise to the "OFF" position. Open the tank valve. Apply a solution of soapy water to
the tank-regulator connection and to the valve-hose connection to check for leaks. If soap
bubbles continue to form, the connection has a leak. If a leak is found, close the tank valve
and tighten all connections.
NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
Figure 7
9. Tighten the threaded the knobs found on the tank tray (Figure 8) so that the LP tank
cannot move from side to side. Do not remove the plastic cap from the end of the threaded
section.

NATURAL GAS CONVERSION
Natural gas conversion must be performed only by your natural gas provider or service
company.
1. SHUT OFF THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE UNIT AND ANY NEARBY ELECTRICAL SOURCE
OR APPLICANCES
2. Below the burner, carefully disconnect flex connector attached to the orifice holder (see step1).
3. Carefully unscrew the orifice holder from the burner pipe (see step2).
4. Remove the propane orifice from the holder and replace with natural gas orifice (see step2).
5. Install the air shutter over the burner pipe to cover the air holes. Then reattach the orifice
holder to the burner pipe (see step3).
6. Reattach the flex connector to the orifice holder. (see step 4).
7. To convert the regulator from propane to natural gas, the appliance must be isolated from the
gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut off valve. Ensure any pressure
testing of the gas supply piping system is at test pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psi(3.5KPA)
8. Remove the propane rubber hose from valve and replace with 5/8” natural gas pipe (see step5,
natural gas pipe package is not provided).
9. Restore your gas supply and check ALL of the connections for leaks using a solution of soapy
water. If a leak is discovered and any bubbles are seen, close the main gas valve and re-tighten

BATTERIES
Make sure the control knob is in the "OFF" position. Unscrew the push
button cap on the ignition module located on the control panel to
access the battery compartment. The ignition module requires one
Alkaline AA size battery (1.5V). The negative (-) end goes in first. See
Figure 11. Dispose of the battery safely as it may explode or leak if
charged or disposed of in a fire. Make sure of the polarity. Mercury
and cadmium free.
