PRECAUTIONS
• Tampering with gas specifi c connections shall be prohibited. Do not alter, remove or modify gas specifi c connections.
• Keep all manifold parts, tools and work surfaces free of oil, grease and dirt. These and other fl ammable materials
may ignite when exposed to high pressure oxygen or nitrous oxide.
• Do not use chemicals, lubricants or sealants unless specifi ed in these instructions.
• Before connecting cylinder to manifold, momentarily open and close cylinder valve to blow out dirt and debris.
• After connecting cylinder to manifold, open cylinder valve S-L-O-W-L-Y to allow heat of compression to dissipate.
• Do not use fl ame or “sniff ” tests for leaks.
• Do not apply heat to any part of the manifold system.
• Always secure high-pressure cylinders with racks, straps, or chains. Unrestrained cylinders may fall over and
damage or break off cylinder valve.
• Do not repeatedly bend, sharply bend, or twist copper pigtails as damage to tubing may occur.
• After the manifold wall bracket has been mounted, one person alone should not attempt to lift and hang
the manifold cabinet.
• Do not put the manifold into operation until verifi ed by a qualifi ed person as per NFPA 99 or other local
