    • If needed, rotate the latch clockwise/counterclockwise before closing to loosen/ tighten the latch.

    • Some tanks may vary in width.

    • Carefully screw the gas hose onto the forklift adapter.

    • It is important to keep the hose and adapter straight while tightening. If the alignment is askew, the hose will not tighten all the way and may cause liquid propane to leak from the tank once opened. This can potentially cause frostbite if in prolonged contact with bare skin.

    • Please be sure to wear the required PPE to protect your hands and eyes in case of leakage.

Step 11a rotate the tank so the pin and small round hole align (facing downward). The pressure relief valve must face upwards.

In case of exposure to high heat or flame the pressure relief valve will release excessive pressure.
