LIGHTING YOUR FIRE PIT

 WARNINGS:

Failure to follow these instructions exactly may result 

in fire or explosion causing property damage, personal 

injury or loss of life.

Before operating the appliance, check all around the 

appliance area and on the surrounding floor for the smell 

of gas - some gas is heavier than air and may settle on the 

floor in the event of a leak.  IF YOU SMELL GAS, follow the 

safety instructions on page 1 of this manual.

The main gas valve in this appliance is not serviceable. Do 

not try to repair or modify the valve, as doing so may result 

in a fire or explosion.  Call a qualified service technician if 

you have any safety concerns.

Do not use this appliance if any part of it has been under 

water.  Immediately call a qualified service technician to 

inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control 

system and any gas control that has been under water.

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or 

maintenance can result in injury or property damage. For 

assistance or additional information, consult a qualified 

installer, service agency or the gas supplier.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or 

liquids in the vicinity of this appliance.

INITIAL LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1.  Purge air from the supply line as follows:  

•  Open the main shutoff valve.

•  Unscrew the main pressure test point.

•  Leave the inlet test screw open until gas flows in.

•  When the gas is flowing, tighten the inlet screw immediately.

2.  Test for leaks in each of the following locations:

•  The gas supply line connection to the main valve;

•  The Burner connections and pilot;

•  All joints on the valve and control body;

•  All field made joints and gas shutoff valves;

•  All factory made joints and connections.

3.  You may check for gas leaks using one of the following methods only:

•  Soap and water solution.  WARNING:  If using a soap and water solution to 

test for leaks, DO NOT spray the solution onto electronic parts;

•  An approved leak testing spray;

•  An electronic sniffer.  NOTE: Remove any excess pipe compound from 

connections if using this method, as the compound can set off electronic sniffers.

DANGER: NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
