Safer work starts with better knowledge.

Confirm cylinder contents from the label rather than colour alone.

Keep cylinders secured in the approved position.

Use the required valve protection during storage and transport.

Use suitable cylinder-handling equipment instead of dragging cylinders.

Keep cylinders away from damaging heat and ignition sources.

Store and use gases with ventilation appropriate to their hazards.

Follow the assessed separation of oxidising and fuel gases.

Use a regulator approved for the gas and service.

Report suspected leaks and follow the emergency procedure.

Do not repair cylinder valves or fittings without authorisation.

Never use oxygen to clean clothing or freshen enclosed spaces.

Keep oxygen equipment free from oil and grease contamination.

Report damaged threads, hoses and connections.

Identify empty cylinders and return them through the approved arrangement.

Use the site's approved cylinder transport and restraint method.

Consider how released gas could accumulate in restricted spaces.

Keep cylinder storage information available to responders.
