SAFETY BULLETIN 1; MARCH 2, 1987
SUBJECT: SAFE CYLINDER HANDLING PROCEDURES
BEFORE handling Kidde system products, all personnel must be thoroughly trained in the safe handling of
the containers as well as in the proper procedures for installation, removal, filling, and connection of other
critical devices, such as flex hoses, control heads, discharge heads, and anti-recoil devices.
READ, UNDERSTAND and ALWAYS FOLLOW the operation and maintenance manuals, owner’s
manuals, service manuals, etc., that are provided with the individual systems.
The following safety procedures must be observed at all times:
Moving Container: Containers must be shipped compactly in the upright position, and properly secured
in place. Containers must not be rolled, dragged or slid, nor allowed to be slid from tailgates of vehicles. A
suitable hand truck, fork truck, roll platform or similar device must be used.
Rough Handling: Containers must not be dropped or permitted to strike violently against each other or
other surfaces.
Storage: Containers must be stored standing upright where they are not likely to be knocked over, or the
containers must be secured.
For additional information on safe handling of compressed gas cylinders, see CGA Pamphlet PI titled “Safe
Handling of Compressed Gases in Containers”. CGA pamphlets may be purchased from their website

WARNING
Pressurized (charged) cylinders are extremely hazardous and if not handled properly are
capable of violent discharge. This may result in serious bodily injury, death and property
damage.
