BURNER VALVE/REGULATOR: The burner control is actually a regulator/valve assembly. The regulator
attaches directly to the end of the burner, which extends out of the right end of the grill body, a 1-pound propane
cylinder threads into the regulator. The burner control operates in the following positions indicated by the pointer at
the top of the regulator as installed on the grill:
OFF – This stops the flow of gas to the burner.
PUSH TO TURN ON – You must push “IN” on the knob to release the knob from the locked “OFF” position.
HIGH – This position provides the highest gas flow and hottest cooking temperatures.
MED – This position provides cooking temperatures between HIGH and LOW.
LOW – This position provides the lowest cooking temperatures.
ONLY A FACTORY SUPPLIED GAS VALVE/REGULATOR SHOULD BE USED. See parts list for replacement
items.
LP GAS REGULATOR CAUTION
The gas pressure regulator provided with this appliance must be used. This regulator is equipped with the required
orifice and is set for the required outlet pressure for this appliance. This combination of orifice size and pressure
regulation specifications provides the cooking performance intended by Beefmaster Explorer. Substitution of
regulator by any other device or any other manufacturer is dangerous and could result in serious injury.
LP GAS REGULATOR
The gas pressure regulator is shipped loose and must be installed prior to operating your grill. This is a “slip-fit”
requiring no tools. See assembly instructions for proper installation. The regulator may be removed from grill after
use. Turn the regulator control knob to the “OFF” position; disconnect the LP cylinder and allow the grill to cool for
at least 30 minutes prior to removing regulator.
Care should be taken to store the regulator in a clean, secure location when the grill is not in use. The threaded
cylinder connection area should be kept clean and free off dust, dirt, sand or any foreign materials. Clean both the
regulator and LP cylinder threaded areas prior to connecting cylinder to regulator.
PROPANE FUEL: Warning – propane is a flammable gas. Improper handling may result in an explosion and/or
fire and serious accident or injury. Your grill is designed to operate with propane (LP) gas only and is equipped with
the proper orifice for propane gas.
Caution: Do not connect this grill with any gas supply other than propane. Propane gas is heavier than air and
settles in lower areas. Make certain adequate ventilation is available when using your grill .The gas cylinder may be
stored outside in a well ventilated area out of the reach of children when the grill is not in use.
LP GAS CYLINDER: This grill is designed and intended to be used with a disposable propane cylinder with a
nominal fuel weight of 1lb. Such a cylinder is approximately 4” in diameter and 7” long. The Beefmaster Explorer
does not include an LP gas cylinder. This must be purchased separately and be supplied at most hardware stores.
The cylinder used must be constructed in accordance with the specifications for LP cylinders of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) DOT-39 NRC232/290 M1110.
The LP gas cylinder shall be used only outdoors in a well-ventilated space and not in a building, garage, or any other
enclosed area. The Beefmaster Explorer may be stored indoors if the LP gas cylinder is removed and stored
outdoors.
The LP gas cylinder (not included) is threaded for connection directly to the gas regulator supplied with this
appliance.
The LP gas cylinder is provided with a threaded connection for accessory directly to the gas regulator supplied with
this appliance. Care should be taken when threading the cylinder to the regulator to engage threads correctly to
achieve the proper and intended connection. When disconnecting or connecting the gas cylinder, be careful that the
regulator does not strike the grill, the ground, or any other surfaces. Replace the protective cap over the threaded
cylinder connection when removed from grill. If any difficulty at all occurs when connecting or disconnecting the
cylinder to the regulator assembly, contact your local gas supplier for assistance.
When re-connecting the LP gas cylinder to the regulator, be sure to hand-tighten until snug. This connection should
be inspected for damage and leak tested after re-connection.
