LOCATING APPLIANCE

When locating this appliance, follow all safety information on pages 2 and 3.

Do not use this appliance indoors. It is for outdoor use only. Do not locate this product in even a partially enclosed area, such as a garage or underneath a patio cover or ga- zebo. They could be damaged or set on fire.

Locate this appliance on a level, outdoor, noncombustible surface. Do not place this appliance on grass or dirt. This may prevent proper safety venting. Do not operate where wind or excessive drafts are present.

Maintain proper clearance from combus- tible materials.

•Never place this appliance directly on any combustible surface.

•Make sure combustible materials are at least 20 feet above appliance. This in- cludes tree limbs.

•Make sure combustible materials are at least 4 feet from sides of appliance.

If your fuel source is a 20 lb. tank (com- monly used with gas grills), install tank securement bracket to concrete firepit be- fore installation (see Connecting to Portable 20 lb. Propane/LP Gas Supply, page 5).

You may paint your tank securement bracket so it will blend better with the surroundings. Before painting, clean the bracket with a degreasing cleanser.

Make sure to locate appliance where gas hose and propane/LP tank (if using 20 lb. portable tank) is out of traffic areas. This will help prevent people from tripping over the hose. This will also help prevent acci- dental damage to the hose.
