DANGER
Failure to comply with the precautions and instructions provided with this fire table can result in death, serious bodily
injury, and property loss or damage from hazards of fire, explosion, burn, asphyxiation, and/or carbon monoxide
poisoning. Only persons who can understand and follow the instructions should use or service this fire table.
EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Keep solid combustibles, such as building materials, paper, or cardboard, a safe distance away from the fire table as
recommended by the instructions.
• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion chamber.
• Never use the fire table in spaces which do or may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as
gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles, or unknown chemicals.
• During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Keep fire table area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, paint thinner, cleaning solvents, and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not use fire table in
areas with high dust content.
Minimum fire table clearances from combustible materials: three (3) feet from the sides and three (3) feet from the top.
• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, direct sunlight, other ignition sources, or where temperatures exceed
120 degrees F (49° C).
• Propane vapors are heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.
• Never install or remove propane tank while the fire table is lit, near flame, other ignition sources, or while the fire table
is hot to touch.
• This fire table is red hot during use and can ignite flammables too close to the burner. Keep flammables at least three
(3) feet from sides and three (3) feet from top. Keep gasoline and other flammable liquids and vapors well away from
the fire table.
• Store the propane tank outdoors in a well ventilated space out of reach of children. Never store the propane tank in an
enclosed area (house, garage, etc.). If the fire table is to be stored indoors, disconnect the propane tank for outdoor
storage.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
• This fire table is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the
combustion process. This product is designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO, if used and
maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the fire table.
• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue, and possibly
death. You can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symptoms are present during operation of
this product get fresh air immediately!
• For outdoor use only.
• Never use inside house, or other unventilated or enclosed areas.
• This fire table consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.
WARNING
WARNING indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
We cannot foresee every use which may be made of our fire tables.
Check with your local fire safety authority if you have questions about fire table use.
Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and heat producing products for specific uses. Your local authorities can
advise you about these.
If no local codes exist, follow National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1. In Canada, installation must conform to local codes. If no
local codes exist, follow the current National standards of CANADA CAN/CGA-B 149.2.
WARNING
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
An LP-tank not connected for use shall not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

28" Square Fire Table - Black
WARNING: For Outdoor Use Only
WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause property damage, injury, or death. Read
the installation, operation, and maintenance instructions thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
• Never leave the fire table unattended when hot or in use.
• Keep out of reach of children.
WARNING
Certain materials or items, when stored under the fire table, will be subjected to radiant heat and could be seriously
damaged.
CAUTION
CAUTION indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate personal
injury, or property damage.
CAUTION
SERVICE SAFETY
• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make sure propane tank valve outlet is clean.
• During set up, check all connections and fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.
• Use as a heating appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device.
WARNING
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added
to help detect leaks and can be described as a “rotten egg” smell. The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not
always detectable by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition
sources including matches, lighters, sparks, or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only
propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.
• Store or use propane gas in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when
not in use.
WARNING
• Alert children and adults to the hazards of high surface temperatures. Stay away from these surfaces to avoid burning
skin or igniting clothing.
• Carefully supervise young children when in the vicinity of the fire table.
• Do not hang clothing or any other flammable materials from the fire table, or place on or near the fire table.
• Replace any guard or protective device removed for servicing the appliance prior to placing back in service.
• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The fire table should be inspected before use and
annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that the
control compartment, burners, and circulating air passageway of the appliance be kept clean.
IMPORTANT PROPANE TANK INFORMATION
The propane gas and tank are sold separately. The fire table should be securely assembled and shall be constructed to
maintain a fixed relationship between essential parts under normal and reasonable conditions of handling and usage.
Parts not permanently secured shall be designed so they cannot be incorrectly assembled and cannot be improperly
located or misaligned in removing or replacing during cleaning or other servicing.
