Improper filling or abuse of this cylinder, or failure to follow
these safety instructions may cause serious bodily injury or
death. High pressure oxidizing gas vigorously accelerates
combustion.

DO NOT use Oil or Grease. Keep cylinder, cylinder valve, all
equipment and connections free of oil and grease to avoid
violent ignition resulting in serious bodily injury or death.
For medical applications. Use only as directed by a licensed
practitioner. Uninterrupted use of high concentrations of oxygen
over a long duration, without monitoring its effect on oxygen
content of arterial blood, may be harmful.
