Procedure varies form unit to unit and what you're local authorities will allow. At worse you'll have to get your LP tank set up with a pump and vapor return line. With that set up you hook two hoses from the tank to the tractor open the valves on the tank and tractor and turn you pump on pumping liquid propane into the tank and allowing gas/vapor back. Everything on the tank needs to be explosion proof wiring. I have used other systems where we vented the vapor return to the air but I don't know if that is allowed any more. No you can't use natural gas, it won't liquefy, your propane system won't handle CNG and you'd need a compressor to to increase the natural gas to a usable pressure. The tractor pulls liquid propane out of the tank through a heat exchanger that turns it into gas that mixes with the air at the carburetor.
