Gas connection: Does this require non-disposable tanks or can I hook this up to disposable prop and oxy tanks from home depot?

You will need regulators to use this torch. There is a kit available for small tanks. This is more expensive to use but practical for limited use.

I suggest going to a welding supply company as there are different configurations depending on what kind of gas you want to use. BTW I used these torches for 30 years before retiring. Best one available for fine work.

Yes this can be done with the proper adapter and hose. Do a search for secondary propane tank refill adapter and you will find what you need.

I don't use one with my homes natural gas. You would probably need one if you're using propane

The little tank that is displayed is disposable. It does NOT come with a tank. They are the same tanks used for camp stoves, lights, etc. You can find them in any number of places (they are about $3-4 in my area). You can also buy an adaptor hose to hook this up to the larger, 20lb propane tanks you find on propane grills.

You need to order the attachment that screws onto the tank. Mine cost me about 20 bucks. Now with green gas the filler tube is already on it. If you are going to use propane you need that filler tube. You can get that on amazon

Most tanks have both connection types. Look inside the OPD & see if there is threads inside also. If not, it won't fit, but tou can exchange your empty tank for a full one for about $20 at many stores - one which has both connection types.The torch does not use an external regulator.

I do not use quick connectors for gas units. I prefer the standard threaded connections, and I added a ball valve shutoff incase of a gas leak.

You are not able to do that. You can use 10, 20 or 100 lb tanks only. I wanted to connect it to my 1000 gallon home tank and they (the gas company) said I could not.

Can I assume you mean Gas Liquified Petroleum? If that is what that means the answer is yes. I use a 20 lb tank I swap out at Winn Dixie or Home Depot when it is empty. If you use propane tank you will need extension hose sold by Amazon also. Great little grill that will handle cooking for 2 or 3 people easily. I love mine.

Yes with the proper hookup kit. They are available on the internet or in stores or a professional can assemble one for you, which is recommended if you are not experienced with gas fittings. And remember, fire code does not allow the propane cylinder in the house, so you will need a long enough hose to keep it outside.

Yes. I have however heard that the plastic connectors have a tendency to break. If your going to use these make sure it's hooked up outside the tank so you can replace it easily

It is not recommended to connect to natural gas line. You can purchase a conversion hose and hook it up to a 20lb. tank though. It has one burner, but it is a loop burner, so it covers the surface of the grill very well.

The manual says to only use the recommended tanks and says that it's not safe to use others. That doesn't mean that you "can't" use another tank with it, but it probably means that it's inadvisable and likely invalidates the warranty. I have not tried to hook anything other than 1-lb. propane tank to it (Ace Hardware brand), so I can't say for sure what is possible. I can only say that I wouldn't try to do it because I'm pretty squeamish about possible leaks using hardware that's no recommended by the manufacturer.

Only thing you need is the propane tank, I haven't had to use mine but did take it out and look at it, it looks pretty simple to hook up and use, my only concern would be using for a long period in a small space.

no, you'll need to buy one; mine is hooked up to the household propane so I didn't need a tank. Plus the cost of shipping a tank is outraegous

Yes, but you must buy a separate connector. I bought a Stansport Propane Appliance to Bulk Tank Hose Connector (5-Feet)-$14.23 from Amazon. You don't want the hose too long since a serious problem you might have is the gas connections not staying secure letting propane gas leak out.

NO.... Just shut off tank valve then remove hose from tank. This tee fitting goes inline by attaching to tank then attach hose. Turn tank on when finished and check for leaks with a soapy water mix. May have a plastic shield covering the hose coupling so it may need to be removed. I was able to replace plastic shield with a little modification. The tank hookup is not much different than you typical 20 or 30 pound propane tank.
