• Cylinders should never come in contact with any
  apparatus that uses electricity, because it can
  lead to internal arcing, which will damage or
  even melt the cylinders. Keep cylinders away from
  open flames, sparks, or slag.
• Try to utilize the standard size of keys for all
  the gas cylinders. Avoid using worn keys and long
  wrenches, or trying to add more gas to them do
  not lengthen the wrenches or restlessly stretch
  them.

  leaks, remove the pipe and cut it open. let your

  could allow gases to flow in the wrong direction
  and create a vacuum in the cylinders. When the
  gases are shut off, a needle valve is used
  instead of a regulator, which may cut off the
  hose.
• If a cylinder overheats due to inappropriate or
  incorrect use of the equipment, it must be vented
  right away or dealt with immediately.
