HOW TO REMOVE OXIDATION

Rub the surface with automotive rubbing or polishing compound to abrade away oxidation.

1. Apply a coat of automotive paste wax to the surface.

2. Allow the wax to dry for a few minutes.

3. Remove residue and polish surface with a clean cloth.

Oxidation can be a problem on metal painted surfaces, since the outermost layers of paint are constantly exposed to air and water. If the outer finish is not protected by a wax coating or polyurethane,the oxygen molecules in the air will eventually start interacting with the paint.

As the oxygen burns up the free radicals contained in the paint, the finish becomes duller and duller. Restoration efforts may include removing a layer of affected paint and reapplying a new layer of protectant. This is why professional detailers recommend at least one layer of wax or other protectant be used every time the metal surface is washed.

The secret to preventing oxidation caused by oxygen is to provide a layer of protection between the exposed material and the air. This could mean a wax or polyurethane coating similar to a car, a layer of paint on metal objects or a quick spray of an anti-oxidant, like lemon juice, on exposed fruit. Destructive oxidation cannot occur if the oxygen cannot penetrate a surface to reach the free radicals it craves.

The Powder Coating paint process has become the most common widely used application in the outdoor furniture category. Unfortunately powder coating is extremely sensitive to Humidity and Moisture. A simple process to protect your furniture, especially flat surfaces is to apply a simple coat of good quality car wax prior using. If this process is done every few months it will protect your furniture for years to come.

Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The coating is typically applied electrostatically and is then cured under heat to allow it to flow and form a "skin". The powder may be a thermoplastic or a thermoset polymer. It is usually used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint. Powder coating is mainly used for coating of metals, such as household appliances, aluminium extrusions, drum hardware, and automobile and bicycle parts.

WARNING

• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

• Keep solid combustibles, such as building materials, paper or cardboard, a safe distance away from the fire pit as recommended by the instructions.

• Provide adequate clearances around air openings into the combustion chamber.

• Never use the fire pit in spaces which do or may contain volatile or airborne combustibles, or products such as gasoline, solvents, paint thinner, dust particles or unknown chemicals.

• During operation, this product can be a source of ignition. Keep fire pit area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, paint thinner, cleaning solvents and other flammable vapors and liquids. Do not use fire pit in areas with high dust content. Minimum fire pit clearances from combustible materials: two (2) feet from the sides & two (2) feet from the rear, 6 feet from ceiling.

• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD

• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights, direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures exceed 120 degrees F (49°C).

• Propane vapors are heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If you smell gas, leave the area immediately.

• Never install or remove propane cylinder while fire pit is lighted, near flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while fire pit is hot to touch.

• This fire pit is red hot during use and can ignite flammables too close to the burner. Keep flammables at least 2 feet from sides & 2 feet from rear, 6 feet from ceiling. Keep gasoline and other flammable liquids and vapors well away from fire pit.

• Store the propane cylinder outdoors in a well ventilated space out of reach of children. Never store the propane cylinder in an enclosed area (house, garage, etc.). If fire pit is to be stored indoors, disconnect the propane cylinder for outdoor storage.

We cannot foresee every use which may be made of our fire pit. Check with your local fire safety authority if you have questions about fire pit use. Other standards govern the use of fuel gases and heat producing products for specific uses. Your local authorities can advise you about these. If no local codes exist, follow National Fuel Gas Code, ANS Z223.1. In Canada, installation must conform to local codes. If no local codes exist, follow the current National standards of CANADA CAN/CGA-B 149.2.

• CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD

• This fire pit is a combustion appliance. All combustion appliances produce carbon monoxide (CO) during the combustion process. This product is designed to produce extremely minute, non-hazardous amounts of CO if used and maintained in accordance with all warnings and instructions. Do not block air flow into or out of the fire pit.

• Carbon Monoxide (CO) poisoning produces flu-like symptoms, watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, fatigue and possibly death. You can't see it and you can't smell it. It's an invisible killer. If these symptoms are present during operation of this product get fresh air immediately!

• For outdoor use only.

• Never use inside house, or other unventilated or enclosed areas.

• This fire pit consumes air (oxygen). Do not use in unventilated or enclosed areas to avoid endangering your life.

WARNING indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. An LP-cylinder not connected for use shall not be stored in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

WARNING: For Outdoor Use Only

DANGER

Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, injury or death. Read the installation, operation and maintenance instructions thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.

CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD This appliance can produce carbon monoxide which has no odor. Using it in an enclosed space can kill you. Never use this appliance in an enclosed space such as a camper, tent or home.

WARNING

SAFETY INFORMATION

CAUTION

WARNING

California Proposition 65 Combustion by-products produced when using this product contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, and other reproductive harm.

BURN HAZARD

• Never leave fire pit unattended when hot or in use.

• Keep out of reach of children.

Certain materials or items, when stored under the fire pit, will be subjected to radiant heat and could be seriously damaged.

SERVICE SAFETY

• Keep all connections and fittings clean. Make sure propane cylinder valve outlet is clean.

• During set up, check all connections and fittings for leaks using soapy water. Never use a flame.

• Use as a heating appliance only. Never alter in any way or use with any device.

CAUTION indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate personal injury, or property damage.

• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible, odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help detect leaks and can be described as a “rotten egg” smell. The odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable by smell alone.

• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to the lowest level possible. It can ignite by ignition sources including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind many feet away from the original leak. Use only propane gas set up for vapor withdrawal.

• Store or use propane gas in compliance with local ordinances and codes or with ANS/NFPA 58. Turn off propane when not in use.

• Alert children and adults to the hazards of high surface temperatures. Stay away from these surfaces to avoid burning skin or igniting clothing.

• Carefully supervise young children when in the vicinity of the fire pit.

• Do not hang clothing or any other flammable materials from the fire pit, or place on or near the fire pit.

• Replace any guard or protective device removed for servicing the appliance prior to placing back in service.

• Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The fire pit should be inspected before use and annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that the control compartment, burners, and circulating air passageway of the appliance be kept clean.
