Cylinder Storage:

Store cylinders in an upright position.

Compressed gas cylinders should be secured firmly at all times. A clamp and belt or chain, securing the cylinder between "waist" and "shoulder" to a wall, are generally suitable for this purpose.

Cylinders should be individually secured; using a single restraint strap around a number of cylinders is often not effective.

Keep valve protective caps in place when the cylinder is not in use.

Keep valves closed on empty cylinders.

Cylinders must be kept away from sources of heat.

Cylinders must be kept away from electrical wiring where the cylinder could become part of the circuit.

Store cylinders in well-ventilated areas designated and marked only for cylinders.

Cylinder Use:

Be sure all connections are tight. Use soapy water to locate leaks.

Keep cylinders valves, regulators, couplings, hose and apparatus clean and free of oil and grease.

Keep cylinders away from open flames and sources of heat.

Safety devices and valves shall not be tampered with, nor repairs attempted.

Regulators shall be removed when moving cylinders, when work is completed, and when cylinders are empty.

Cylinders shall be used and stored in an upright position.

The cylinder valve should always be opened slowly. Always stand away from the face and back of the gauge when opening the cylinder valve.
