Lighting Your Wood Burning Fireplace
Your wood burning fireplace is designed to use a grate to hold the wood to be
burned approximately 2"-3" off the base. This allows air to get to the bottom of
the wood and gives room for ash to accumulate. Do not attempt to burn wood
in your appliance without a proper grate installed.
WARNING: Never use liquids such as gasoline or lighter fluid in a wood burning fireplace. Serious injury can
occur.
Have several sizes of wood available. Small pieces
will be needed to start the fire, some medium sizes and
finally larger logs that will burn for a longer period of
time. Make sure all logs are small enough to fit entirely
into the fireplace or firepit. If the wood is too large, cut
or split it until it will fit into the enclosure.
1.
Wad up some dry newspaper and put it under the
grate but be carefull of ash that may be under grate
from a previous fire.
2.
Put small pieces of wood over the newspaper, on
the grate. Small wood should not be more than 1/2"
thick and 1" wide. Smaller wood will burn easier and
make the fire easier to start. Make sure to leave
room for air to circulate around the small pieces of
wood.
Water Fountain Pump Operation
Fill the tank with water and make sure the water level is above the submersible
pump.
Ensure the pump is connected to 110V GFCI outlet.
Make sure that there is no debris in the filler pan for the waterfall.
Maintain a consistent water level, as dry pumping will burn out the pump motor.
Turn on the waterfall by flipping up the switch to the ON position.

3.
On top of the small pieces of wood put a few medium
sized pieces of wood. These pieces can be from 1"
to 2" thick but should not block airflow around the
small pieces.
4.
Light the newspaper under the grate in several
places. As wood begins to burn, add more medium
sized pieces one at a time until a good coal base is
formed. At this time you can add larger pieces of
wood. Always make sure there is sufficeint room for
air to flow around the wood that is added or you may
smother your fire.
Warning! Never leave a burning fireplace or firepit
unattended!
