• Do not obstruct any of the openings on the grill/side burner or otherwise obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air. Do not build the grill/side burner into any combustible structure that is closer than 18 inches (45.7 cm) from the sides and 24 inches (60.9 cm) from the back and top.
• Be sure all control knobs are in the OFF position and the unit is cool before using any aerosol cleaner on it or near it. The chemical used for aerosol propellant could ignite in the presence of heat. Never use aerosol cleaner on the cooking surfaces. •...
National Standard CAN/CGA B149.1&.2 - natural gas/ propane installation code. U.S.A.: must conform to national Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 edition. • Use only hoses, regulators and quick disconnects supplied by Crown Verity. • Maintain minimal clearances to combustible materials (See “Figure 1”).
REAR HOOD CLEARANCE A 3.5 inch (8.9 cm) clearance is required behind the rear flange of the grill to allow the hood to open unobstructed. The grill exhausts combustion products and cooking greases to the back. Do not locate the grill where this exhaust will be difficult to clean. FIGURE 1.
OVERHEAD PROTECTION AND EXHAUST REMOVAL If installed under any combustible construction the cooking area over the grill/side burner MUST be covered with an exhaust hood. The hood must provide 6 inches (15.2 cm) of overhang on all exposed sides. The exhaust hood shall provide no less than 1,200 CFM for proper exhaust ventilation.
NEVER CONNECT A GAS LINE DIRECTLY TO THE GRILL/SIDE BURNER. A PRESSURE REGULATOR MUST BE INSTALLED ON ALL GAS EQUIPMENT. ALL LOCAL CODES REQUIRE IT AND CROWN VERITY SUPPLIES THE CORRECT REGULATOR WITH YOUR GRILL. REMOVING OR FAILING TO INSTALL THE PRESSURE REGULATOR CAN RESULT IN FIRE AND SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
Page 17
The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill must be used. Replacement pressure regulators and hose assemblies must be the type specified by Crown Verity and installed by a licensed gas technician. For replacement parts, contact Crown Verity Customer Service at 1-888-505-7240.
For safety and for proper use & care, you must leave this manual with the owner. Make sure you advise them to keep it for future reference. For technical assistance call the Crown Verity customer service desk at: 1-888-505-7240 or service@crownverity.com...

Connection: The Type I (Q.C.C.1) cylinder valve is recognizable by the large external thread on the outlet part of the valve. Standard valves do not have these exterior threads. Any attempt to fit the regulator(s) with anything other than the mating Type I (Q.C.C.1) connector, (recognized by the large plastic features designed into the Type I (Q.C.C.1) system.
Page 21
To connect the LP regulator hose assembly to the LP tank, first make sure the main valve on the tank is completely closed. Make sure also that the control valves on the grill are OFF. Thread the regulator inlet over the tank valve. Use care to ensure proper alignment of the threaded coupler and avoid cross-threading or damaging the coupler.
Page 22
TROUBLESHOOTING: If the large thermally sensitive coupling nut is exposed to temperatures above 115°- 150°C (240° & 300°F) it will soften and allow the regulator probe to Disengage from the cylinder valve, thereby shutting off the flow of gas. Should this occur, do not attempt to reconnect the nut. Remove the entire regulator assembly and replace it with a new one.
NATURAL GAS REQUIREMENTS Verify the type of gas your grill/side burner has been configured for by the factory by checking the rating plate on the appliance (See Appendix “A” for further details). Grills and side burners configured for natural gas (NG) are orificed differently than units configured for liquid propane (LP) gas.
Page 24
For Residential appliances, the regulator will need to be adjusted to 3.0” water column. FIGURE 6. NATURAL GAS CONNECTION FOR MCB-SB • In no case should an inlet pipe less than 3/4” inside diameter or 1” outside diameter ever be used to connect this product.
(NG). For appliances configured for use with bulk LP tanks, a regulator is not supplied. To purchase these options, please contact Crown Verity at 1-888-505-7240. For Mobile Grills, the gas connection is positioned on the outside of the grill body on the right hand back rear corner.
Page 26
The regulation of gas from the bulk tank must be adjusted to 10.0 inches W.C. for Commercial Grills (9.0 inches W.C. for Residential Grills). Refer to the appliances rating plates in appendix “A” (See “Figure 7” for further details). FIGURE 7. BULK PROPANE CONNECTION FOR MOBILE GRILLS Page 26 of 64...
SB-MCB Side Burner Option (Commercial Grills Only) The SB-MCB side burner option is available on Commercial Grills only and can come factory installed at the time of purchase or can be added to an existing grill at a later date. The side burner has a single 15,000 BTU burner and is available in both LP and NG gas configurations.

General Operating Procedures The grill/side burner reach operating temperatures in approximately 5-8 minutes but may vary depending on environmental conditions. For compliance requirements, the temperature gauge for the grill is specific to the air temperature. There is not a direct correlation between the grill air temperature and the grate temperature, so the actual values will differ.
The hose must be replaced prior to using the unit. Replace the hose assembly with the exact type specified by Crown Verity. If you do not smell gas, shut everything off and have a qualified technician service the appliance.
Clean and inspect the gas hose. If there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts or leaks, do not use the grill. The hose must be replaced prior to using the unit. Replace the hose assembly with the exact type specified by Crown Verity. Lighting Your Grill or Side Burner...

STANDARD LIGHTING PROCEDURE – SIDE BURNER • Remove the lid on the side burner so gas will not build up within the unit before lighting. Make sure to place the lid where it will not get scratched or damaged. • Make sure the burner valve is in the OFF position (See “Figure 15”).
For outdoor grills to sear and grill steaks, they have high performance burners that require constant, steady supply of fresh air to mix with the fuel. Your Crown Verity grill pulls air in through the front of the grill. Using your grill in windy conditions can disrupt the front to back air flow (See “Figure 18”).
Please note, the surface temperature can be up to 200 degrees higher. TYPES OF COOKING Your Crown Verity grill has the capabilities of creating a range of heat intensities. By varying the heat output, the number of burners used and the position of the hood, you can create either direct or indirect heat or a combination of both.
This is a dangerous condition. The grill should NOT be used until the problem is rectified. If you are not comfortable addressing the issue yourself, please hire a licensed technician or contact Crown Verity Service at 1-888-505-7240. TO CLEAN THE AIR SHUTTER: Turn off the gas supply shutoff valve or close the main valve on the LP cylinder.
