3. Setup Instructions

The Yaheetech Smokeless Fire Pit arrives fully assembled, requiring no complex setup. Follow these simple steps to prepare your fire pit for use:

1. Choose a Location: Select a flat, stable, and non-flammable surface for the fire pit. Ensure it is away from any combustible materials, structures, or overhead obstructions.
2. Place Fire Mat: Lay the provided silicone fire pit mat on the chosen surface. This mat is designed to protect your patio, deck, or lawn from heat, ash, and embers.
3. Position Fire Pit: Carefully place the fire pit on top of the silicone mat.
4. Insert Log Grate: Place the metal log grate inside the fire pit. This elevates the fuel, allowing for optimal airflow and combustion.

Your fire pit is now ready for operation.

4. Operating Instructions

To achieve the best performance and minimize smoke, follow these operating guidelines:

1. Fuel Type: Use only approved fuel types such as dry firewood or charcoal. Do not use accelerants or flammable liquids.
2. Loading Fuel: Place logs or charcoal onto the metal log grate. For optimal smokeless performance, ensure that the wood pieces are not taller than the aeration holes at the top of the fire pit. Overfilling can lead to increased smoke.
3. Ignition: Use appropriate fire starters to ignite the fuel. Allow the fire to establish and burn efficiently. The smokeless feature becomes more pronounced once the fire is fully burning and the secondary combustion system is engaged.
4. Managing Fire: Use the provided fire poker to adjust logs as needed. Never use your hands or other unprotected tools.
5. Extinguishing Fire: Allow the fire to burn down naturally. Do not use water to extinguish the fire, as this can damage the fire pit and create steam hazards. Once the fire has completely died down and the fire pit has cooled, proceed with maintenance.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life of your fire pit and ensure continued safe operation:

• Ash Removal: Once the fire pit is completely cool, remove any remaining ashes. The perforated bottom grate allows ashes to collect at the bottom, making cleanup easier. You can use the fire pit lid placed underneath as an ash pan for convenient collection.
• Cleaning: Wipe down the exterior of the fire pit with a damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Storage: When not in use, especially during inclement weather or prolonged periods, cover the fire pit with the provided water-resistant rain cover. This protects the unit from moisture and debris, helping to prevent rust and maintain its appearance.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the fire pit for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure all components are intact and stable before each use.

6. Troubleshooting

While the Yaheetech Smokeless Fire Pit is designed for efficient, low-smoke operation, some issues may arise. Here are common concerns and their solutions:

• Excessive Smoke:
  • Cause: Wood is too wet or too large, or the fire pit is overfilled.
  • Solution: Ensure you are using dry firewood. Cut logs to a size that does not extend above the aeration holes at the top of the fire pit. Reduce the amount of fuel if overfilled. The smokeless effect is most effective once the fire is hot and fully established.
• Difficulty Starting Fire:
  • Cause: Insufficient kindling or poor airflow.
  • Solution: Use adequate kindling to build a strong base fire. Ensure the log grate is properly positioned to allow for airflow from the bottom.

For issues not covered here, please refer to the Warranty and Support section.
