Never allow a propane cylinder to tip while in use.
Never allow the heat from the forge to heat the propane cylinder.
Never leave a hot forge unattended, even if the fuel is shut off and be cautious of high temperature of the forge
parts immediately after forging session.
Never store a propane cylinder indoors.
Inspect your propane cylinder (especially the valve), your regulator (especially the connector to the cylinder and
its O-ring) and your burner (especially the hose) for any signs of wear or problems. Do not install the regulator if
you see any sign of problem.
Install the regulator by hand, without tools, until the nut (left-hand thread, remember) is fully seated.
Immediately tighten the nut with a wrench. Do not over tighten the nut, as this will only ruin the connectors.
Always shut down the forge by turning off the fuel at the cylinder, then backing off the regulator knob (as a
safety precaution.)
When finished a forging session, remove the regulator from the cylinder and take the cylinder to its outside,
storage area at once.
Allow the forge to cool for at least a half an hour before you leave the area. This is to prevent accidental fires
from going undetected.
