SAFETY FIRST- PRE-INSTALLATION AND IMPORTANT WARNINGS

A. Make sure none of the components were damaged during shipping before installing this outdoor fire pit

or fire pit table. Refer to the FIRE PIT/TABLE CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES section on pg.4, to ensure
the surrounding area is properly sized for safe installation.

B. The fire pit/table is for outdoor use only. Do not install or use this appliance inside a building, garage, or

any other enclosed area, including recreational vehicles and/or boats. This unit must be installed so that
the vent opening at the base of the unit remains clear and free of any obstruction at all times.

C. CHECK GAS TYPE (natural gas or propane): Check the unit burner components to verify that the gas sup-

ply you intent to use is compatible with the components supplied with the unit. If the gas supply is differ­ent, please contact David Cooke Industries LLC.

D. DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNIT IF MINIMUM PRESSURE IS NOT AVAILABLE OR IF MAXIMUM PRESSURE IS

EXCEEDED. Gas type and pressure must be checked prior to installation and use as follows:

For a natural gas fire pit/table: Supply Pressure: Minimum: 3.5” W.C.; Maximum: 7.0” W.C.
Outlet Pressure: 3.5” to 5.0” W.C.

For a propane gas fire pit/table: Supply Pressure: Minimum: 8.0” W.C.; Maximum: 15.0” W.C.
Outlet Pressure: 10.0” to 12.0” W.C.

E. Gas piping system must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure at the maximum flow rate (Btu/hr)

for the unit’s respective gas type.

F. All natural gas fire pits/tables must have an emergency gas shut-off valve located on the premises

(commonly located on the gas supply line for the building—please refer to local Building Code). An addi­tional gas supply shut-off valve should be installed in or near the fire pit/table for maintenance and safety
(it is recommended to shut off supply gas when fire pit/table is not in use).

G. The fire pit/table and its flame height adjustment valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping

system during any pressure testing of that system at pressure in excess of 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa). This is neces­sary to ensure that the fire pit/table valve, regulator and components are not damaged.

H. Gas-Supply plumbing requirements: Apply only joint compounds (i.e., yellow plumber’s tape) that are re-

sistant to all gasses on all male pipe fittings. Make sure to tighten every joint securely. Do not use joint
compound to connect flare fittings, as it is not necessary and could compromise functionality. Bring the
gas supply pipe up from beneath the table base near it’s center (if applicable to unit).

I. Select a location with good drainage that allows easy access for installation and maintenance of the fire

pit/table.

WARNING: It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure a safe installation and to educate the end user as to

proper operation of the unit. This manual shall be left with the owner/operator of this unit for reference.

WARNING: FOR REMOTE CONTROL USE: To prevent accidental start-up from unwanted RF (radio frequency)

signals it is the responsibility of the end user to turn off power to electric outlet (via wall switch or breaker)
for the remote control receiver when the fire-pit/table is not in use .

WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to follow ALL LOCAL CODES concerning the installation and

operation of the fire pit. In the absence of local codes, please follow:

Fixed piping system: The National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or International Fuel Gas Code.
Electrical ground: The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

OPERATING THE FIRE PIT/TABLE SAFELY AND IMPORTANT WARNINGS

WARNING: Both children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperatures and

should avoid flames to prevent burns and/or clothing ignition. Fire pits/tables create very high tempera­tures, so combustibles must be located far enough away that there is no risk of ignition.

IMPORTANT: To prevent damage or cracking it is recommended that material such as granite, marble or

other dense stone be kept away from excessive heat and especially direct flame contact, which can result
from use during windy conditions.

WARNING: If your fire pit/table is making the surrounding stone surface hot, turn it down or off immedi-

ately. Your fire pit is not intended to be operated at maximum output for extended periods of time. Large
and/or quick temperature variations may cause stone to crack.

WARNING: For electronic ignition models there must be an electrical shut off ( wall switch or breaker ) on

the exterior of the fire pit or on an adjacent wall to allow for emergency shutdown and maintenance.

WARNING: This product is not intended to be a starter for wood or any other combustible material. Never

alter this product or configuration in any way.
A. SOLID FUEL MUST NOT BE BURNED in the fire pit/table.
B. DO NOT continue using if you smell unusual odors, or have headaches, nausea ,or dizziness.
C. DO NOT store any combustible material, gasoline, and any other flammable vapors/liquids in the vicinity

of the fire pit/table.
D. Matches, paper, garbage, or any other material must not be thrown onto the fire pit/table.
E. DO NOT use the fire pit/table if any part of it that has been submerged in water. Immediately call a quali-

fied professional service technician to inspect the fire pit/table and to replace any part of the control system
that has been submerged in water.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

A. Always shut off the gas to the fire pit/table while performing service work.
B. Allow the fire pit/table to cool before servicing.
C. The Fire Pit should be inspected regularly by the owner/operator. Excessive debris can build up on this

fire pit/table system including leaves, dirt and other materials. It is critical that all control components,

propane air mixer, and burner are maintained free of internal obstructions, and for the surrounding area

to be kept clean of debris.
D. The burner assembly must be replaced prior to the fire pit/table being put into operation if it is evident

that the burner is damaged. Contact (951)-805-0314
E. The owner/operator should perform periodic visual checks of the burner flames and pilot flames (if appli-

cable). The burner flames should be blue at the base with a combustion of blue/yellow at the body and

tips. The pilot (if applicable) should be a steady flame, touching the electrode/thermocouple. Contact a

qualified service person for maintenance. This appliance should be inspected before use and at least an-

nually by a qualified service person

Note: Keep the surrounding area at the base of the Fire pit clean and free of obstructions at all times. Keep

the burner pan, decorative media (fire glass) and other items clean and free of debris that may cause
obstruction.
