CONTROL VALVE REGULATOR
•Uses standard 1 lb. disposable propane canisters (DOT-39 NRC).
•Prior to installing valve, become familiar with the valve function & 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. Pull straight out on valve to check that it is locked in place.
Valve will feel loose and will rotate easily. Even though the valve feels loose, it is designed that way and 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.

OPERATE ONLY ON “LOW” WHEN LID IS CLOSED.
ALWAYS OPERATE WITH GREASE TRAY IN PLACE.
WARNING: Do not overheat grill. Magma Grills do not require pre-heating. Stainless
Steel loses 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.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Open lid during lighting.
• Place flame up to burner through the match light hole.
• Depress valve and turn counter-clockwise to the “HIGH”.
• Visually confirm ignition.
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.
NOTE: Before lighting, lid lock must be positioned not to engage. Open lid and turn
lock to locked position, or bring lock latch up to handle in open position and flip
lock actuator back onto handle.
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
overboard or use Magma Propane Storage Locker/Tote Bag. Never stow
below decks
OPERATING PROCEDURES

A- Lift radiant plate up & out of left slot.
B- Remove by sliding it out of right slot.
C- Remove burner retainer pin (see C) & remove burner. Inspect burner, remove
any obstructions. CAUTION: WHEN REPLACING BURNER, CUT SLOTS IN BURNER
MUST FACE DOWN.
D- Lift the two-section liner out of outer shell by lifting up on the burner support
bracket on the left liner section. (1) Slide the left section partially over the right
section. (2) Grab the back of the left liner section and pull it toward you until it
clears the lip of the outer shell. (3) Lift liner section out of grill.
E- Move the right liner section slightly to the left (1). Grab the back of this section
and pull it toward you (2) - lift and remove this section (3).
• Inspect burner, remove any obstructions.
• Clean as indicated in Maintenance (page 7).

• Magma On-Board LPG (Propane) Valves & Hose Kits allow
Magma Grills to be installed within a boats existing
on-board, 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.
Stainless Steel, contrary to popular belief, can rust. Most commonly, deposits on the surface of the product will trap
moisture. It is this moisture that robs the stainless steel of oxygen. Oxygen is the element that reacts with the 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 products designed to clean stainless steel as most leave a residue that may discolor
when the grill is heated.
Additionally, stainless steel that is exposed to high heat will change in color and texture over time. This “bluing” and
later “browning” of the internal components is not a failure of the stainless steel and will not affect the product
operation. However, prolonged exposure to extreme high heat will cause the chromium and nickel to “burn out” of the
stainless steel. At this point the stainless steel will become more susceptible to corrosion and will start to deteriorate. We
recommend that you replace these internal components if they become seriously deteriorated.
We recommend thorough cleaning of all internal parts after each outing. It is important to disassemble the interior
components and remove any food residue. A soft “Scotch-Brite” pad or similar product may be used in this process. For
heavier burned-on stains we recommend “Easy-Off Oven & Grill Cleaner” followed by thorough washing with soap and
water, rinse with fresh water and dry. AVOID CONTACT OF OVEN CLEANER WITH CONTROL VALVE, IGNITER
ELECTRODE & WIRE, AND BOAT SURFACES. CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF ABRASIVE PAD ON THE EXTERIOR
MIRROR FINISH AS IT WILL SCRATCH THE SURFACE. USE ONLY A SOFT COTTON CLOTH. We recommend covering the
grill between uses. Grill covers are available at Magma retailers or directly from Magma. See our website,
MagmaProducts.com.
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.
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 ON-BOARD LPG (PROPANE) SYSTEMS
MAINTENANCE
7

Magma's grills are designed for use with small disposable propane canisters or with pre-regulated low-
pressure propane and optional low-pressure valves. Running high-pressure propane fuel supply lines on a
boat is in violation of American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC) guidelines and is not considered a safe
application. Additionally, impurities found in larger refillable propane tanks may clog the small orifices in the
high-pressure control valve/regulator causing it to lose performance capabilities and eventually fail. Regulating
these tanks to 1/2 PSI and using this pre-regulated propane with the correct low-pressure valve will ensure
safe, efficient performance of the grill.
IMPORTANT!! • DO NOT CONNECT A HIGH-PRESSURE SUPPLY HOSE
FROM A NON-REGULATED TANK DIRECTLY TO GRILL.
• Magma on-board CNG (natural gas) valves allow Magma grills to be installed to an existing on-board, pre-regulated low
pressure CNG (natural gas) system.
• Use only Magma Type 4 Low Pressure CNG (natural gas) control valves. Visit our website at MagmaProducts.com to view
valve application guide. See your local dealer for proper hose and fittings.
