Instruction Sheet
Important Safety Guidelines
1. Never fill a cylinder without permission of the owner.
2. Before filling a cylinder visually inspect the cylinder to verify it is in good condition. Do not fill the cylinder if there are dents, deep scratches,
evidence of being in the presence of a fire, signs of rust, or if the pressure valve is damaged in any way.
3. Verify the cylinder has been hydrostatically tested within the last 5 years. The hydrostatic test date will be stamped in the crown of the cylinder.
The numbers will be in this order: Month/Test Facility ID /Year. For example, a cylinder tested in April 2001 will have a stamp that looks like this:
