2. Connect the flex gas line with the air mixer to the 1/2" NPT inlet on the bottom of the burner ring.
3. Connect the other end of the flex gas line to the gas valve on the igniter panel.
4. Connect the propane hose with regulator to the igniter panel's inlet.

4.4 Install the Spark Ignition Kit

• Mount the igniter panel in a suitable location on your fire pit enclosure.
• Connect the igniter electrode wires to the spark ignition module.
• Ensure the igniter electrode is positioned correctly near one of the burner holes to facilitate ignition.

4.5 Leak Test

• After all connections are made, open the propane tank valve slowly.
• Apply a soapy water solution to all gas connections. If bubbles appear, there is a leak. Tighten connections and re-test.
• Do not operate the fire pit if a gas leak is detected.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Before Lighting

• Ensure the fire pit area is clear of debris and flammable materials.
• Confirm the propane tank valve is open.
• Verify the gas key valve on the igniter panel is in the OFF position.

5.2 Lighting the Burner

1. Slowly turn the gas key valve to the ON position to allow propane to flow to the burner.
2. Immediately press and hold the igniter button to create a spark.
3. Continue holding the igniter button until the burner ignites.
4. Once ignited, release the igniter button.
5. Adjust the flame height using the gas key valve.

NOTE: If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, turn the gas key valve to the OFF position, wait 5 minutes for gas to dissipate, and then repeat the lighting procedure.

5.3 Turning Off the Burner

• Turn the gas key valve to the OFF position.
• Close the valve on the propane tank.
• Allow the burner and fire pit media to cool completely before covering or storing.
