What is the proper way of attaching propane tank to bottom of grill
A propane tank, a sheet of metal shaped into a grill, some tubes, and a lighter. Connect the tubes to the propane tank, turn it on, light the lighter and BOOM!!!! You have your grill.
On the Coleman roadtrip grill, there is a propane connector located at the end of the propane line. Simply connect the line to the appropriate size propane tank and tight the connector. If you are using a large tank, you will need to purchase an adapter.

There is only one type of propane that can be used for your BBQ. If you go to any store that sells propane for BBQs you will be able to purchase a tank of propane. However since this is the first time you will be connecting your BBQ to a propane tank you have to make sure that you have the right fittings and hose to connect to the tank.
There are 23 gallons in a 100lb tank that I use to heat my pool.
The propane is going from a HIGH pressure, to a very low pressure,as you are using the gas,the tank WILL get very cold, this is very normal, and NOT dangerous. Great that you noticed it, but do NOT be alarmed.
