IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS OF CO2
(CARBON DIOXIDE) GAS
WARNING
1. CO₂ gas can be dangerous! CO₂ cylinders contain high-pressure
compressed gas, which can be hazardous if not handled properly. Make
sure you read and understand all the procedures for the CO2 cylinders.
2. Always connect the CO2 cylinder to a regulator! Failure to do so may
cause an explosion resulting in possible death or injury when the
cylinder valve is opened.
3. Never connect the CO2 cylinder directly to the product container.
4. Always follow the correct procedures when changing cylinders.
5. Never drop or throw a CO2 cylinder.
6. Always keep CO2 cylinders away from heat. Store extra cylinder at a
cool place (preferably lower than 70°F). Securely fasten with a chain in
an upright position when storing.
7. Always ventilate and leave the area immediately if CO2 leakage has
occurred!
8. There are two safety devices in the pressure system in the form of
valves. One safety feature is on the CO2 bottle. The second is on the
regulator.
9. Never attempt to refill CO2 cylinder yourself. CO2 tanks can be refilled at
locations such as welding supply shops, party stores, fire supply shops,
or where kegs are purchased.
