4. Use the oxygen outlet: Attach the tube from the end of the mask to the end of the valve. Please turn on the cylinder slowly by rotating the handwheel in an anticlockwise direction until it comes to a stop. Then rotate the flow selector and choose the prescribed flow.

5. After use handling: After usage turn off the cylinder by rotating the handwheel clockwise until it reaches the stop point. Then disconnect the equipment. Remove the tubing. Set back the flow selector to zero. Replace and refit the outlet cover. Cross-check the cylinder gauge to see the content level of gas.

Place it back to a storage area as “in use” or “empty.”
