The maximum inlet gas supply pressure: 250 psi/ 1750kPa. The minimum inlet gas supply pressure:
5 psi/ 35kPa. The minimum hourly of 10000 Btu/ 2.93 kW is required input rating for an appliance for
automatic operation at ratings less than full input rating.
Place a dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of
dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or
plugs may result in leakage of propane.
DO NOT obstruct the ow of combustion air and ventilation air to the re pit. The propane cylinder
must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and equipped with a listed overlling prevention device.
Please use the proper cylinder orientation to provide vapor withdrawal. NOTE: The cylinder must be
fully upright for the cylinder to have vapor withdrawal only.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
a. Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this appliance.
b. Never ll the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
c. If the information in (a) and (b) is not followed exactly, a re causing death or serious injury
may occur.
The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the appliance must
be used. The installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of
local codes, with national fuel gas code, ANS Z223.1/NFPA54, natural gas
and propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or propane storage and handling
code, B149.2.

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
CONNECTING THE LP TANK
1. The knob on the LP tank must be closed. Make sure that the knob is turned clockwise
to a full stop. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
2. Check that the control knob on the control unit is turned off.
3. Remove the protective cap from the LP tank valve and coupling nut.
4. Hold the regulator in one hand and insert the nipple into the valve outlet.
Be sure the nipple is centered in the valve outlet. The coupling nut
connects to the large outside threads on the valve outlet. Use care –
do not cross thread the connection.
5. Hand-tighten the coupling nut clockwise until it comes to a full
stop. Firmly tighten by hand only. Do not use tools.
To Disconnect: Fully close the tank valve by turning clockwise.
Turn the coupling nut counterclockwise until the regulator
assembly detaches.
WARNING
ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFEGUARDS ON THIS PAGE MUST BE FOLLOWED TO
PREVENT FIRE, DAMAGE AND/OR INJURY.
ARNING
WARNING
In the connection process, make sure:
• the regulator inlet connector mates with the cylinder valve outlet properly, safely and rmly, and;
• the LP gas hose does not come in contact or remain in contact with the burner assembly.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
After all connections are made, check all connections and ttings on the LP gas tank valve,
gas hose and regulator for leaks with a water and soap solution.
To prevent re or explosion while testing for a leak:
• Always perform a leak test prior to lighting the re pit.
• Do not smoke while testing for a leak.
• Always perform leak tests outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
• Do not use any source of ame while testing for leaks.
• Do not use the re pit until any and all leaks are corrected.
• If you are unable to correct a leak, disconnect the propane supply and call a gas
appliance service dealer.
Before connection, be sure that there is no debris caught in the outlet of the gas
cylinder, outlet of the regulator valve or in the outlet of the burner and burner ports.
Keep the propane cylinder valve closed and disconnect the propane cylinder from
the regulator valve when the re pit is not in use.

18
LEAK CHECK
1. Make 2-3 oz. of leak check solution (one part liquid dishwashing detergent and three
parts water).
2. Put leak solution in a spray bottle.
3. Make sure cylinder valve and control valve are OFF.
4. Apply several drops of solution where hose attaches to regulator.
5. Apply several drops of solution where regulator connects to cylinder.
6. Turn cylinder valve ON.
If bubbles appear at any connection, there is a leak.
1. Turn cylinder valve OFF.
2. If leak is at hose/regulator connection: tighten connection and perform another leak test.
If bubbles continue appearing, the hose should be returned to the place of purchase.
3. If leak is at regulator/cylinder valve connection: disconnect, reconnect, and perform
another leak check. If you continue to see bubbles after several attempts, cylinder valve
is defective and should be returned to cylinder’s place of purchase.
If NO bubbles appear at any connection, the connections are secure.
Note: Whenever gas connections are loosened or removed, you must perform a complete
leak test.
Complete installation.
WARNING
• Perform all leak tests outdoors.
• Extinguish all open ames.
• NEVER leak test when smoking.
• Do not use the re pit until all connections have been leak tested and do not leak.

Note: Other cylinders may be acceptable for use with this appliance provided they have the same
prole and dimensions to be compatible with the appliance nesting hole and retention means.
Before Turning Gas Supply ON:
1. Your re pit was designed and approved for outdoor use only. Do NOT use it inside a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area.
2. Make sure surrounding areas are free of combustible materials, gasoline, and other ammable
vapors or liquids.
3. Ensure that there is no obstruction to air ventilation. Be sure all gas connections are tight and
there are no leaks.
4. Be sure the cylinder cover is clear of debris. Be sure any component removed during
assembly or servicing is replaced and fastened prior to starting.
Before Lighting:
1. Fire pit should be thoroughly inspected before each use, and by a qualied service person at
least annually. If relighting a hot re pit, always wait at least 5 minutes.
2. Inspect the hose assembly for evidence of excessive abrasion, cuts, or wear. Suspected areas
should be leak tested. If the hose leaks, it must be replaced prior to operation. Only use the
replacement hose assembly specied by manufacturer.
