MAINTENANCE
THIS SECTION SHOWS YOU HOW TO MAINTAIN AND UPKEEP THE FIRE FEATURE
CLEANING
Inspect the appliance before initial use. Clean
the appliance at least annually and have it
inspected by a qualified field service person.
Periodically examine the burner. If the burner
is dirty, clean it with a soft wire brush. Remove
any dirt or debris in this area. This will ensure
long life and trouble-free operation.
The easiest way to clean the fire pit is to let
it cool completely off. Spray the enclosure off
with water. Note: Do NOT spray water directly
onto the burner and igniter and wipe clean
with a dry cloth.
When not in use and after cooling, cover your
fire pit with a full length cover. The cover will
help protect your fire pit from detrimental
effects
of
weather
pollutants (see your local The Outdoor Plus
dealer for details).
Before placing the cover on the fire pit, make
sure the unit is shut off, that the gas lines
are disconnected and that the unit has had
sufficient time to cool.
More frequent cleaning may be required
as necessary. It is imperative the control
compartment, burner and circulation air
passageways of the appliance be kept clean
and free.
MAINTENANCE
Annually have a Licensed Gas Plumbing
Technician check the hose connecting the
propane gas cylinder to ensure it is not
cracked or damaged in any way. All natural gas
hook-ups should be serviced and inspected
only by qualified installers only.
Spiders and other insects can nest in the
burners and block the gas and airflow to
the burner ports. This creates a dangerous
condition that can result in a fire from
behind the valve panel. Inspect and clean the

and
environmental
burners periodically.
Any guard or other protective device removed
for servicing the appliance must be replaced
prior to operating the appliance.
Inspect the fuel supply connection for signs
of leakage (including the hose for propane
models) before each use of the appliance.
Do not repair or replace any part of your fire
pit. Have a qualified technician perform all
service. Any repairs made by a non-approved
service technician will void your warranty.
STORAGE
When your fire pit is not in use, turn off the
gas at the source.
This appliance can be store indoors only if it
has been disconnected from its fuel supply.
Store propane cylinders outdoors in a well-
ventilated area out of reach of children.
Disconnected cylinders must have threaded
valve plugs tightly installed and must not
be stored in a building, garage, or any other
enclosed area.
To extend the life of your fire pit, protect
and cover it from the elements when not in
use. (See Figure 7) Ensure the appliance has
ample time to cool off after use and prior to
installing storage cover. Damage caused to
storage cover due to heat or burns are not
covered by warranty.
