Cylinders contain high pressure gas. If damaged, a cylinder may explode.
Protect cylinders from excessive heat and mechanical trauma.
Install cylinders in a vertical position, blocking them by chaining them to a fixed support, or using a special cylinder holder, in order to avoid falls or bumps.
Keep cylinders far from welding areas and any type of electric circuit.
Only use authorised cylinders, pressure reducers, tubes and fittings approved for this specific use. Ensure they are maintained in good condition, together with their connected parts.
Do not expose face to the valve exit located on the cylinder when open.
Always keep the valve covered with the correct screw cap, except when the gas cylinder is being used or when the cylinder is connected to the machine.
