Using this fire pit is easy. First, make sure you've assembled it following the instructions. Place it in a safe outdoor area away from anything flammable. Put some fire - starting materials inside, like newspaper or kindling, and then add your firewood. Light the fire - starting materials, and soon you'll have a warm blaze. When you're done, use the poker to spread the ashes out and let the fire die down completely. Once it's cool, put the shield - lid on to keep out debris. For maintenance, clean the fire pit regularly to remove ashes and dirt. Check the iron parts for any signs of rust and clean them with a wire brush if needed. Store it in a dry place during the off - season to make it last longer.
