About this file

This document provides product handling instructions for various outdoor furniture and fire pit items. It specifies the preferred and acceptable lifting and transport methods for items including picnic tables, benches, barbecues, fire pits, waste receptacles, planters, and table tennis tables. Forklifts with padded forks are identified as the preferred method for most items. The instructions emphasize maintaining level balances and avoiding lifting from under seats or inside grill areas to prevent damage. Chain lifting is described for certain barbecues and grills. Placement of items directly from delivery pallets is advised when possible to minimize hanging time. Proper seasonal of barbecues is also outlined.

The related federal contract opportunity is a solicitation from the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service to transport and install picnic tables. No other details are provided on the required number of tables, response date, or contract period of performance.

Figure 3

For adjustable grill group barbecues (#3001AG), forklift forks can be placed under arch and lifted off of pallet.

The grills that come with barbecues and firepits have a coating on them. Before the first use, it is important to heat the grill up to a proper temperature to burn the coating off. Once the coating has been burned off, lightly coat the surface of the grill with a vegetable oil. The grill can be maintained by periodically repeating the “seasoning” process of heating the grill and lightly coating with vegetable oil.
