what kind of welding regulator do I need?

I have recently purchased a craftman 140 welder (20569) but it does not come with a regulator. I am new to welding so I have no idea what I need. I looked at three different ones at Northern Tool today but don’t know the difference…One was an oxygen regulator one was an acetylene regulator, and the other just said welding regulator. Which one do I need and what is a good brand to get?
