Risks due to the compressed gas bottle
Damage to the gas bottle, to the valve. Gas escapes at high pres-

strains occur at the cracks, causing the gas bottle to break open. Gas
emerges at high pressure. The gas bottle is propelled like a rocket.

to property.
Do not apply force to gas bottles, bottle connectors and valves.
When transporting, storing, and using the gas bottle, prevent it
from falling over and dropping by securing it with chains, hoops,
or retaining straps.
Only transport gas bottles with the valve guard fitted: bottle cap
or bottle collar.

the CO
