Using your steel outdoor fire pit table is a breeze. First, decide if you'll use propane or natural gas. If you choose natural gas, you'll need to buy a conversion kit separately. Connect your fuel source following the safety instructions. Then, use the ignition system to start the fire. Once the fire is going, you can adjust the flame to get the right amount of warmth. When you're done, turn off the fuel supply. For safety, always keep the fire pit away from flammable objects and make sure children are supervised. To keep your fire pit in great shape, clean the burning area regularly to remove ashes and debris. Cover the fire pit with the lid when it's not in use to protect it from the elements.
