Mr Elliot and Mr Orford each face one charge of setting fire to the property of another and one charge of failing to comply with a total fire ban.
The Carwoola fire ripped through 3500 hectares of land, completely destroyed eight homes and damaged a number of other buildings.
The case will return to court in mid October.
