Setup and Assembly
The BESTFIRE 2-Burner Camping Stove is designed for quick and tool-free assembly. Follow these steps to set up your stove:
- Attach the Legs: Invert the stove body. Insert each of the four removable legs into the corner sockets on the underside of the stove. Secure each leg by tightening the attached eye bolt. Pliers may be used to ensure a snug fit.
- Install Side Shelves: Position the side shelves next to the main stove body. Align the holes on the side shelves with the corresponding holes on the stove. Insert the provided bolts and nuts, ensuring the nut is on the side towards the burners and the bolt towards the side table. Thread the nuts but do not fully tighten yet.
- Secure Side Shelves: Once both bolts are in place for a shelf, slide the shelf into position and tighten the bolts with a screwdriver and pliers. Repeat for the second side shelf.
- Attach Utility Hooks: The long silver-colored hardware pieces are for the utility hooks. Insert the long side into the front of the side table, and secure with the screw from the back side of the table using a screwdriver and pliers.
- Connect Propane Regulator: Attach the CSA certified regulator hose to the gas inlet on the back of the stove. Ensure a tight connection. The other end of the regulator connects to your propane tank (sold separately).
- Install Control Knobs: Push the control knobs onto the valve stems located on the front panel of the stove.
- Install AA Battery for Ignition: The auto-ignition system requires one AA battery (not included). Locate the battery compartment, typically near the ignition button, and insert the battery with the correct polarity.
