(1) Wear safety goggles or a face shield with properly tinted lens at all times; (2) obtain the
instructor's permission before using compressed gases; (3) store fuel gas cylinders separately from
oxygen cylinders; (4) keep gas cylinders upright and chained securely at all times. They should be
stored outdoors or in well-ventilated, fire-safe areas; (5) do not bump or put pressure on pipes,
connections, valves, gauges, or other equipment connected to compressed gas cylinders; (6) when
connections are opened or cylinders changed, check thoroughly for leaks before using the equipment;
(7) never use equipment exposed to oil or grease. Spontaneous or instant fires may result; ( follow
specific procedures for turning systems on and off; (9) work only in areas that are free of materials that
burn; (10) never cut or weld in an area that is not well ventilated; (11) when cutting galvanized metal,
take precautions not to breathe fumes from the process; (12) never use gas-burning equipment without
