THE VERMONT CASTINGS WOOD PELLET STEEL FIRE PIT
®
IS DESIGNED TO BURN PREMIUM HARDWOOD HEATING
PELLETS.
BEFORE USING, MAKE SURE THE PELLET FIRE PIT IS A SAFE
DISTANCE FROM ALL COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL.
USING A RAKE, LEVEL THE AREA IF NECESSARY AND
REMOVE ANY DRY GRASS OR OVERHANGING BRANCHES.
1 Carefully centre and lower the Burner Bowl (A) onto
the top of the Ash Pan (B) until it lays in place.
2 Pour premium hardwood pellets into the Burner
Bowl (A) up to the bottom of the "FILL LINE" indicator,
approximately 2" (5 cm) up from the perforated
floor. Do not overfill.
3 Ensure that the premium hardwood pellets are evenly
distributed around the bottom of the Burner Bowl.
No pellets should be above the "FILL LINE" indicator.
4 Using a torch, carefully ignite the pellets in several
locations around an evenly spaced circular pattern.
For faster lighting results use a non-toxic fire starter,
like wax infused tinder, also in an evenly spaced
circular pattern.
5 As the fire burns down, wearing heat resistant gloves,
use a long handled metal scoop to evenly scatter
pellets around the Burner Bowl on top of the already
burning pellets. Placing too many pellets in one
place could smother the fire and create excessive
amounts of smoke. Adding pellets once the flames
have extinguished will also create excessive smoke
until the pellets ignite.
NOTE: IF YOU REFILL WITH TOO MANY WOOD PELLETS TOO
QUICKLY, THERE WILL BE EXCESSIVE SMOKE UNTIL THOSE
WOOD PELLETS PROPERLY IGNITE. WHEN FINISHED WITH
YOUR FIRE, JUST LET THE FLAMES BURN OUT.
