Supplemental Safety and Health
NEVER INSERT AN OBJECT (E.G. WRENCH, SCREWDRIVER, PRY BAR)  INTO CAP
    OPENING; DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE VALVE AND CAUSE A LEAK. USE AN
    ADJUSTABLE STRAP WRENCH TO REMOVE OVER-TIGHT OR RUSTED CAPS. OPEN V
    ALVE SLOWLY. IF VALVE IS HARD TO OPEN, DISCONTINUE USE AND CONTACT

    AGGRAVATE EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITIONS.
*  First Aid Measures  *
First Aid:INHALATION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR. IF NOT BREATHING GIVE
    ARTIFICIAL RESPIRATION. IF BREATHING IS  DIFFICULT, QUALIFIED
    PERSONNEL MAY GIVE OXYGEN. CALL A PHYSICIAN. SKIN: FLUSH WITH
    WATER. INGESTION: PRO DUCT IS A GAS AT NORMAL TEMPERATURE &
    PRESSURE.  EYE: FLUSH WITH WARM WATER. HOLDTHE EYELIDS OPEN & AWAY
    FROM EYEBALLS TO ENSURE THAT ALL SURFACES ARE FLUSHED THOROUGHLY.
    NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: NO SPECIF IC ANTIDOTE. THIS PRODUCT ISNEARLY
    INERT. TREATMENT OF OVEREXPOSURE  SHOULD BE DIRECTED AT THE CONTROL
    OF SYMPTIONS AND THE CLINICAL CONDITIONS.
*  Fire Fighting Measures  *
Lower Limits:N/APPLICABLE
Upper Limits:N/APPLICABLE
Extinguishing Media:NITROGEN CANNOT CATCH FIRE. USE MEDIA APPROPRIATE
    FOR SURROUNDING FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:CAUTION! HIGH PRESSURE GAS. EVACUATE ALL
    PERSONNEL FROM DANGER AREA. IMMEDIATELY DELUGE  CYLINDERS WITH
    WATER FROM MAXIMUM DISTANCE UNTIL COOL, THEN MOVE AWAY FROM AREA IF
    WITH OUT RISK. SELF CONTAINE D BREATHING APPRATTUS MAY BE REQUIRED
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NITROGEN CANNOT CATCH FIRE.HEAT OF FIRE
    CAN BUILD PRESSURE IN CYLINDER AND CAUSE IT TO RUPTURE. NO PART OF
    RELIEFDEVICE (EXCEPTIONS MAY EXIST WHERE AUTHORIZED BY DOT).
*  Accidental Release Measures  *
Spill Release Procedures:CAUTION! HIGH PRESSURE GAS. IMMEDIATELY
    EVACUATE ALL PERSONNEL FROM DANGER AREA. NITROGEN IS ASPHYXIANT.
    LACK OF OXYGEN CAN KILL. USE SELF CONTAINED BREATHING APPRATUS 
    WHERE NEEDED. SHUT OFF FLOW  IF  YOU CAN DO SO  WITH OUT RISK.
    VENTILATE AREA OR MOVE CYLINDER TO WELL VENTILATEDAREA. TEST FOR
    SUFFICIENT OXYGEN EXPECIALLY IN CONFINED SPACES BEFORE ALLOW ING
    REENTRY.
*Handling and Storage  *
Handling and Storage Precautions:STORE/ USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
    FIRMLY SECURE CYLINDERS UPRIGHT TO KEEP FROM FALLING OR BEING
    KNOCKED OVER. SCREW VALVE PROTECTION CAP FIRMLY IN PLACE BY HAND.
    STORE FULL & EMPTY CYLINDERS SEPAR ATELY. USE FIRST-IN, FIRST-OUT
    INVENTORYSYSTEM TO PREVENT STORING FULL CYLINDERS FOR LONG PERIODS.
Other Precautions:PROTECT CYLINDERS FROM DAMAGE. USE SUITABLE HAND
    TRUCK TO MOVE CYLINDERS; DO NOT DRAG, ROLL, SLIDE, OR DROP. NEVER
    ATTEMPT TO LIFT CYLINDER BY ITS CAP; THE CAP IS INTENDED SOLELY TO
    PROTECT THE VALVE.
