- Clearance from Combustibles: A minimum distance of 15 feet (4.5 meters) from all combustible materials is recommended to prevent ignition. This includes patio roofs, low-hanging branches, trellises, or any type of overhang, including covered porches.

- Clothing Safety: Flammable or loose clothing should not be worn when tending an open fire in the barrel.

Assembly Instructions:
The assembly process involves a few straightforward steps:
- Unfold Walls: Unfold the four hinged walls to form a square shape.
- Secure Hinges: Align the holes in each of the three hinges with the corresponding holes in the opposite wall. Insert one bolt through the center holes from the exterior for each hinge and tighten with a small nut.
- Bend Grill: This step requires caution due to sharp edges, and safety gloves are recommended. Using a flat surface with an edge, forcefully bend the center of the grill to a 90-degree angle. Then, bend the two ends to a 90-degree angle in the opposite direction. Adjusting the angles of the bends may be necessary if the grill does not fit properly or if the tabs do not reach the slots.
- Place Grill: Insert the grill inside the burn barrel, aligning its tabs with the slots located near the bottom of the walls. Once inserted, bend the tabs down to secure the grill in place.
- Attach Lid Handles: Turn the lid upside down. Insert the threaded end of each handle through the holes in the lid. Secure each handle with a washer and a large nut.
- Place Lid: Once assembled, the lid can be placed on top of the burn barrel.
Maintenance Features:
While specific maintenance instructions are not detailed, the stainless steel construction suggests a degree of inherent durability and resistance to corrosion, which simplifies upkeep. General maintenance for outdoor metal products typically includes:
- Cleaning: Regular cleaning to remove ash and debris after use.
- Storage: Storing the burn barrel safely out of reach of children when not in use.
- No Modifications: Any modifications to the appliance are dangerous and not permitted, which implies that the product is designed to function optimally in its original form and should not require alterations.
