⚠️ Important Safety & Usage Notes

 

1. Puncture Safety & Eye Protection: Always wear safety goggles and chemical-resistant gloves when clamping and tapping refrigerant cans to protect against accidental refrigerant discharge and freeze burns.

2. Verification of Seal: Ensure the side clamp is fully centered and tightened around the canister body before advancing the piercing needle to guarantee an airtight seal.
