SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES

DO NOT allow cylinders to tip or fall. Secure gas cylinders so they cannot fall. Ensure cylinder is always in upright position.

DO NOT allow oil from your hands or other sources to come into contact with the cylinder post valve. These substances may become flammable in the presence of oxygen and cause injury. Avoid touching the cylinder post valve whenever possible. Example of items to avoid are hand creams or lotions, cooking oils, suntan oils or sun blocks and similar oily products. If you use these types of products, wash your hands prior to use. If the bottle fitting should come in contact with such substances it should be cleaned off with a damp cloth prior to connecting it to the conserving regulator.

NEVER oil or lubricate the oxygen conserving regulator or cylinder post valve. NEVER use any penetrating oil or lubricant such as WD‐40® or 3‐in‐1 oil®. If continued difficulty is experienced contact your supplier for assistance.

DO NOT store cylinders near sources of heat or flame.

DO NOT use while sleeping without consulting your healthcare provider.
