Operating Instructions
The wind shield is a passive accessory designed to improve flame stability. Its operation is directly tied to the fire pit's controls.
- Before Lighting: Ensure the wind shield is securely placed on the fire pit. Verify that the propane tank is correctly connected and the gas valve is open.
- Lighting the Fire Pit: Follow your fire pit's specific lighting instructions. Typically, this involves pushing and turning the control knob to the "ON" position and pressing the igniter button.
- Adjusting Flame: Once lit, adjust the flame height using the fire pit's control knob as desired. The wind shield will help maintain a consistent flame even in breezy conditions.
- Turning Off: To turn off the fire pit, turn the control knob to the "OFF" position. Close the gas supply valve on the propane tank. Allow the fire pit and wind shield to cool completely before handling.

- Cleaning: Allow the glass wind shield to cool completely before cleaning. Use a soft cloth and a mild glass cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the glass.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the glass panels for any cracks or chips. Check the aluminum holders and screws for tightness and corrosion. Replace any damaged components immediately.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, especially during harsh weather, it is recommended to disassemble the wind shield and store the glass panels in a safe, protected area to prevent accidental damage.
Troubleshooting

- Loose Panels: If glass panels feel loose, gently retighten the screws on the aluminum holders. Do not overtighten.
