Fire Pits - Lighting Instructions

First, reset the propane tank (only necessary when troubleshooting lighting problems)

 

1. Turn the gas control on your patio heater or fire pit to OFF. Turn the shutoff valve on the propane tank to the OFF position by turning the valve in a clockwise direction until it is fully closed.

2. Disconnect the regulator from the propane tank shutoff valve by twisting the knurled mounting knob in a counterclockwise direction. The regulator should now pull away from the propane tank valve.

3. Re-attach the regulator to the propane tank shutoff valve by threading the mounting knob back onto the valve. Screw the mounting knob in the clockwise direction until it is tight. Hand tighten only, do not use tools.

 

Lighting procedure:

 

1. Fire Pit Burner Valve Control Knob must be in the “OFF” position

2. Connect the propane cylinder (if not already connected)

3. Slowly open the valve on the propane tank

4. Push and turn the Fire Pit burner control knob to the lighting position.
