I was very fortunate not to lose another grill! After receiving excellent technical advice, I learned the importance of using those little clippy things on the grill brackets. They prevent the grill from falling off during towing!

You tow with the grill installed on the camper?

Ha Ha, That was a good one. Be sure to leave the gas line connected as a backup.

I hope the part about towing with the grill on the brackets is a joke. Can't really imagine anyone would try it.

I read where you posted in another forum about Forest River telling you to make sure the clips were engaged before pulling out of your site. There may have been a misunderstanding there.
You should not move the camper with the grill attached/hanging on your camper. This is just something you use while you are parked/stationary.
You will remove the grill and bracket, and stow it away in a storage compartment.....before towing your trailer....or driving your motorhome.

Argerram has got to be kidding! You say that you already lost one grill? Stow the grill and mounting arms before towing!!

I wonder if he is the same person who drove into the KOA in Mallorytown last Aug. I was on traffic control and they came in with their slide out. I commented on how unsafe the practice was. The comment was they had extra people with them and needed the extra room.

I'm just curious how many people actually like this grill? I thought it was kind of chincy as have been using a Coleman Roadtrip grill for years with my PUP ( Coleman - Coleman Outdoor Grills - RoadTrip® Grill LX - Coleman® RoadTrip® LX). It has multiple grill tops you can use for whatever your needs. Only problem is it is high pressure, I tried to hook it up to the line on my Shamrock 23IKSS but the low pressure didn't have enough power to make it a very good flame. We actually mostly cook on the campfire or my Med Big Green Egg.

Have you looked to see if the regulator on the Coleman grill can be removed?

x2!! And we've never had a problem with the side of the TT getting too warm, or grease getting on the TT or awning, etc. They're made to be used, and frankly, I like the small size and convenience of not having to find room for something a lot bigger and bulkier. My DH extended the hose so we can move it over a bit on the bracket.

Well and I've stated before the hanging bracket doubles as a tabletop stand providing u have enough hose.
