Default Propane valve question

Will the connector from a home propane grill line hook up to and work on a
propane fuel tank for a forklift? Or do I need to get an adapter if there
is such a thing.

Nope.
BBQ uses propane gas to the regulator for burners.
Fork Truck use liquid propane to the regulator.

The tanks are different because of this.

Then, mine should be less pleasing. But far more useful.

(Ask your propane dealer friend to swap your tanks for what he's got
on the scrap pile, and ask him to fill them first.)
