DANGER
EXPLOSION—FIRE HAZARD
• Keep solid combustibles, such as building
materials, paper, or cardboard a safe distance
away from the fire pit as recommended by the
instructions.
• Provide adequate clearances around air
openings into the combustion chamber. Never
use the fire pit 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 appliance can be a source
of ignition. Keep fire pit area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, paint thinner,
cleaning solvents and other flammable vapors
and liquids. Do not use fire pit in areas with high
dust content. Minimum fire pit clearances from
combustible materials: 2 feet (24 inches) from
the sides & 2 feet (24 inches) from the rear, 6
feet (72 inches) from ceiling.
• Never store propane near high heat, open
flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition
sources or where temperatures exceed 120°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 a propane cylinder
while the fire pit is lighted, or near flame, pilot
lights, or other ignition sources or while fire pit is
hot to the touch.
• This fire pit is red hot during use and can ignite
flammables too close to the burner. Keep
flammables at least 6 feet (72 inches) from top
and 2 feet (24 inches) from sides. Keep gasoline
and other flammable liquids and vapors well
away from fire pit.
• Store the propane cylinder outdoors in a well
ventilated space out of the reach of children.
Never store the propane cylinder in an enclosed
area (house, garage, etc.). If fire pit is to be
stored indoors, disconnect the propane cylinder
for outdoor storage.

Y
CARBON MONOXID
E HAZARD
• This fire pit 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 pit.
• 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. Using
this fire pit in an enclosed
space can kill you. Never use this
fire pit in an enclosed space such
as a camper, tent, home, or other unventilated or
enclosed area.
• This fire pit consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in
unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid
endangering your life.
WARNING
• This fire pit 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 having 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 ANSI/NFPA
58. Turn off propane when not in use.
Solid fuels shall not be burned in this appliance.
WARNING
Never leave fire pit unattended when hot or in
use. Keep out of reach of children.
