No special training is required. Just be sure to only fill it with disel gasoline. If not you can wreck your engine.
This depends on a number of factors. A CDL is required if the vehicle has air-brakes, I don't remember the weight limit but I believe there is one. The most important factor is if its for personal use(You don't use it for commercial use, or make money off it in any way) Then a CDL is not required.
