CONTROL VALVE REGULATOR

•Uses standard 1-lb. disposable propane canisters (DOT-39 NRC).

•Prior to installing valve, become familiar with the valve function and graphics
on valve knob. Never force the knob. Always turn or push gently.

•Turn control valve to “lock” and install gas canister being careful not to cross
the threads. Check for leaks prior to use, by brushing soapy water solution
around threads and orifice hole checking for bubbles.

•Position valve with gas bottle as shown (A). Gently insert valve stem into
valve chamber. Rotate until valve stem key aligns with lock detent allowing
valve to fully insert. Rotate gas canister down, so knob faces you (B) or
straight up (C) depending on application.

(C)

Valve will feel loose and will rotate easily. Even though the valve feels loose, it will not leak. The
valve was designed to be loose fitting in order to allow safe, easy installation and removal of
the propane canister and so it easily swings without resistance to fit all applications.

anti-corrosive characteristics when subjected to extreme heat. Most grilling is done on low
temperature with the lid closed. If medium or high heat is required, grill with lid open.

• Open lid during lighting.

• Depress knob and rotate counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.

• Push Electronic Igniter. • Visually confirm ignition. • Turn knob to adjust flame.

• If grill does not light (see page 5).

If electronic ignition fails to ignite the gas, see MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS.

NOTE: Before lighting, lid lock must be positioned not to engage. Open lid and turn lock to
locked position.

NOTE: Electronic ignition comes equipped with battery preinstalled. Replace with “AAA”
alkaline battery only.

(Back up system allows use of grill until ignition system is repaired.)

• Open lid during lighting. • Place flame up to burner through the match light hole.

• Depress valve and turn counter-clockwise to the “HIGH” flame position.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

MATCH LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

TO REDUCE FLARE-UP

• Empty and clean grease tray prior to each use.

• Trim excess fats from meat. • Use non-oil based marinades.

• Reduce heat. • Use water spray directly on flare-ups.

FOLDING LEGS

For storage, transport or while using mounting option. Fold up back legs first, then front legs (as
shown). If legs become loose they can be tightened with a 5/32” Hex Key Wrench.

PRACTICAL HINTS:

Before lighting your grill, be sure that …

•

Grill is secure and properly mounted.

•

Internal components and grease tray are clean and correctly positioned.

•

You have plenty of gas in the canister.

•

Gas canister is attached properly and there are no gas leaks.

•

Lid lock has been set not to engage.

•

You have a water spray bottle handy to cool a hot grill or stop any flare-ups.

STOWING TIPS

• Always disconnect the fuel canister from the valve prior to stowing.

• Stow the valve in a clean, dry area to protect from corrosion to valve.

•

Always store propane in a sealed propane storage locker that allows leakage to vent

or use Magma Propane / Butane Storage Locker / Tote Bag.

DISASSEMBLY & RE-ASSEMBLY

• Remove radiant plate’s retainer pin (see B) and remove radiant plate by sliding it out
of securing tabs (see E).

• Remove burner retainer pin (see C), remove burner. Inspect burner, remove obstructions.
CAUTION: WHEN REPLACING BURNER, CUT SLOTS IN BURNER MUST FACE DOWN.

• Remove lid by removing hinge screws and nuts with 3/16” hex key wrench
(supplied) and 1/2” wrench or pliers. CAUTION LOCK NUTS MUST BE INSTALLED WITH
LOCKING INDENT MARKS SHOWING (see F). IMPROPER INSTALLATION WILL DAMAGE
HINGE SCREWS AND LOCK NUT.

• Clean as indicated in Maintenance (page 6).

• To disconnect or replace igniters ceramic electrode. First remove two screws on valve
chamber (see D) and remove cover plate. Gently pull wire off connector (see D).
Remove electrode screw and nut with a small Phillips head screwdriver and 1/4”
wrench or pliers. Gently pull electrode with wire out of grill body inspect for damage,
replace if necessary.

• To re-assemble, reverse above procedure.

Typical Pre-Regulated
LPG Application

Stainless steel contrary to popular belief can rust. Most commonly, deposits on surface of the product will trap moisture. It is
this moisture that robs stainless steel of oxygen. Oxygen is the element that reacts with stainless steel to form a protective layer of
chrome oxide. Robbed of oxygen, this reaction does not take place and “crevice corrosion” or “surface rusting” occurs. To
minimize this effect, thoroughly clean your grill with soap and water, rinse with fresh water, and dry. Avoid using stainless steel
polishes on grill exterior as most leave a residue that may discolor when grill is heated.

Additionally, stainless steel that is exposed to high heat will change color and texture over time. The “amber” color of grill
exterior and internal components is not a failure of the stainless steel and will not affect products operation. When this happens,
we recommend using “Magma Magic” Grill Restorer to remove the “amber” color and return grill to its original luster.
However, prolonged exposure to extreme high heat will cause chromium and nickel to “burn out” of stainless steel. At this point
stainless steel will become more susceptible to corrosion and will start to deteriorate. We recommended replacement of internal
components as they become seriously deteriorated.

We recommend thoroughly cleaning grill and internal components after each outing. Disassemble interior components and
remove all food residue. Use a “Scotch Brite” pad or similar product and “Easy-Off” oven cleaner for cleaning grills interior
components, followed by thoroughly washing with soap and water, rinse with fresh water & dry. AVOID CONTACT OF OVEN
CLEANER WITH SKIN, CONTROL VALVE, IGNITOR ELECTRODE & WIRE. CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF ABRASIVE PAD ON
EXTERIOR MIRROR FINISH AS IT WILL SCRATCH SURFACE, USE ONLY A SOFT CLOTH. We recommend covering grill between uses.
Grill covers are available at Magma retailers or directly from Magma. See our website: magmaproducts.com After cooking Do
Not turn grill to high heat to burn off grilling residue. The grill is not a self cleaning oven & this extreme heat can damage
stainless steel components.

Grill Grates - Clean with brass wire brush while grill is warm. Use Oven & Grill cleaner for burnt-on residue. Wash with
soapy water and dry prior to storage.

Ceramic Electrode - Located just beside the burner, it should be kept clean of grease and debris. Be careful not to damage the
ceramic insulation or the wire. See page 5 for electrode spark adjustment.

Control Valve - All valves are set and tested at our factory. Do not attempt to adjust or disassemble the valve in any way.
Call Magma if you suspect it is not adjusted properly. Clean valve with a cloth and remove any debris obstructing the orifice.

Repair/Replacement Parts - All replacement parts are readily available at your Magma Retailers or directly from Magma.
For a complete list of replacement parts visit our website MagmaProducts.com.

USING GRILL WITH LPG (PROPANE) SYSTEMS

• Magma LPG (Propane) Valves & Hose Kits allow Magma
Grills to be installed within existing, pre-regulated low
pressure LPG (Propane) system.

• Use only Magma Type 3 Low Pressure LPG (Propane)

Valves. See our Valve Application Guide at
MagmaProducts.com for correct valve.

• In North America use Magma A10-225 LPG 10' Gas
Grill Connection Kit in conjunction with Type 3 Valve.

Outside North America check
your local dealer for proper hose and fittings.

• A primary shutoff valve (supplied with Gas Grill
Connection Kit) must be used with this control valve at
point of connection into your system. This allows shut off
of gas supply to hose leading to grill.

• In Australia & New Zealand LPG fuel systems must

be installed by a certified
gas technician.
