Safety Instructions
Read carefully before assembling and operating your gas grill.
INSTALLATION
This gas grill must be installed in accordance with the local codes or, if in an area without local codes, with the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1. In Canada, installation must conform to the standard
CAN/CGA 1-b149.1 and/or .2 (Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment) and any local codes.
THE LOCATION FOR YOUR GRILL
Do not use your gas grill in garages, porches, breezeways, sheds or other enclosed areas. Your gas grill is to be used
outdoor only, at least 21” from the back and side to any combustible surface. The grill should not be placed under
any surface that will burn. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the grill housing.
This outdoor cooking gas appliance is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.
DANGER !
If you smell gas:
1. Shut off gas to the appliance.
2. Extinguish any open flame.
3. Open lid.
4. If odor continues, keep away from the appliance and immediately call your gas supplier
or your fire department.
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or
any other appliance.
Do not store empty or full spare gas cylinders under or near this or any other appliance.
Keep the fuel hose and any electrical cord away from hot surfaces. Protect fuel hose from
dripping grease. Avoid unnecessary twisting of hose. Visually inspect hose prior to each use
for cuts, cracks, excessive wear or other damage. Replace hose, if necessary.
Never test for gas leaks with a lighted match or open flame. Never light grill with lid closed.
Never lean over cooking surface while lighting grill. Use barbecue tools with wood handles
and good quality insulated oven mitts when operating the grill.
The Fuel System
Gas grills are used safely by millions of people when following simple safety precautions.
The items in the fuel system are designed for operation with the Beefmaster Explorer grill. They must not be
replaced with any other brand. (See parts list for replacement items.)
GAS BURNER: The gas burner is constructed of tubular stainless steel and should not require maintenance other
than inspection for insects/nests inside the air intake slots.

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.

The threaded cylinder connection should be kept clean and free of dust, dirt, sand or any foreign materials. Clean
both regulator and LP cylinder threaded areas prior to connecting cylinder with regulator.
Keep any electrical supply cord or fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
COOKING TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
HIGH – Approximately 450 degrees F
MED – Approximately 400 degrees F
LOW – Approximately 350 degrees F
NOTE: A disposable 1lb. cylinder “NEAR EMPTY” can significantly reduce or will significantly reduce internal
pressure and may affect the regulator’s capability to accurately control gas flow. This may cause somewhat hotter-
than-normal cooking temperatures during the final few minutes of cylinder use as it reaches “empty.”
NOTE: A disposable 1lb. cylinder will provide approximately 4-6 hours of cooking time with the Beefmaster
Explorer grill.

Care & Maintenance
There is very little care and maintenance needed. The Beefmaster Explorer is designed and made of materials that
will last many years with normal use. Following these instructions will improve the longevity and quality of
cooking. To ensure safe operation of your grill, the area of cooking should always be kept free of combustible
materials of any type, such as gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids.
1. Outside of body – This is stainless steel. It can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water or any stainless steel
cleaner.
2. Grid and drip pan – The grid is made of high quality stainless steel. The grid should be brushed with a brass or
stainless steel brush immediately after removing food, while grill is still warm. The drip pan is also stainless
steel and can be cleaned with a flat scraper such as a putty knife. Caution: The drip pan must be kept clean and
free of heavy buildup for grill to perform properly and to eliminate flare-ups. Drip pan should not be washed
completely clean.
3. Inside grill – Use warm soapy water to clean this area. Do not allow grease to build up.
4. Drain pipe – Drain pipe must be kept clear of grease and food particles to allow grease to drain properly from
drip pan. This must be done to maintain proper operation of your grill.
5. General – This grill, like all equipment, will look better and last longer if kept out of weather when not in use.
Caution: Do not store propane cylinders in enclosed spaces. When using a cover or moving the grill, always
wait until the grill has cooled for at least 30 minutes.
Check to be sure all openings into grill body are free of blockages or debris. Make sure there are no objects or
materials blocking the flow of combustion or ventilation. Make sure the stacks are in the up position when using the
grill.
When grill is not in use, turn regulator knob to off, remove propane cylinder from regulator and remove regulator
from burner.
For outdoor use only, if stored indoors, detach cylinder and leave it outdoors.
Cylinders must be stored out of reach of children.
Check burner air inlet openings (behind inlet guard on right end of body) for insect nests or blockages. Make sure
the slots in burner tube are open.
Important
First-time use. It is important that the grill be lit and allowed to operate at least 30 minutes before any food is placed
on the grill grid. Some smoke may appear during the initial operation of the grill. This is normal. These are the
preservatives used during manufacturing. After initial heating, grill is ready for use. After burning off the grill, spray
the cooking grid, drip pan and inside of the lid, so food does not stick to the grid and the inside is easier to clean.
THIS COOKING APPLIANCE IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY AND SHALL NOT BE USED IN A BUILDING,
GARAGE OR ANY OTHER ENCLOSED AREA.
MOVING INSTRUCTIONS
Caution: Never move the grill with burner lit!
Transporting grill: Make sure gas control is off. Disconnect propane cylinder from regulator. Remove regulator from
grill. Be sure grill has completely cooled (for at least 30 minutes.) Close lid and secure latch. Place stacks in down
position if necessary. Carry grill by handle between stacks.
Note: It is best to leave the grease pan in place attached to the bottom of the grill – some grease may continue to drip
from drainpipe during transport.
Setting up for use: Find a flat surface. Grill must be on a level surface to operate properly.
