CAUTION
!
The Quick-Opening lever may be removed slightly
forward, approximately 1/4 inch (6.4 mm), to permit
installation of the anchor stud.
FORWARD MOVEMENT IN EXCESS OF 1/4 INCH
(6.4 mm) MAY RESULT IN ACTUATION OF THE
VALVE. If valve is accidentally actuated, close the valve
by completing Steps 2(b), 2(c), and 2(d) on Page 5.
WARNING

Do not place body or head in front of cylinder valve outlet.
If valve is accidentally operated, velocity of unrestricted
escaping gas is forceful enough to cause injury, especially
about the face and head.

Do not strike “pull” lever when connecting hose to cylinder
valve.
CAUTION
!
Do not attempt to install cartridge before arming release.
WARNING
!
Do not install cartridge at this time.

Take all precautions to avoid firing the releasing device
when the ring pin is installed. Firing the release with the
ring pin in place will damage (possibly destroy) the
solenoid.
