BEFORE USING GasGrab™, THE OPERATOR MUST BE FIT AND ABLE TO HANDLE THE LOAD HE/SHE IS ATTEMPTING TO LIFT

  • Ensure that the words “THIS WAY UP” are facing upwards.
  • Rotate the handles of the GasGrab™ downwards into the open/clearance position.
  • Lower the GasGrab™ downwards over the gas cylinder until it reaches a safe lifting point.
  • SAFETY ADVICE: The safest clamping point to lift a cylinder from is with the GasGrab™ clamped above the centre point of the vertical cylinder body. This stabilises the gas tank's balance when being moved.
  • Pull both handles of the GasGrab™ upwards, this will cause it to clamp onto the cylinder body.
  • REMEMBER: If you relax your upward pressure on the GasGrab™, it will relax its grip and may slide down the cylinder body, so always lift with both GasGrab™ handles at the same time.
  • Using a safe lifting technique, raise the gas bottle from the floor.
  • When using a team lift, ensure that one person is in overall control of the lift.
  • Carefully move the cylinder to its setting down point.
  • Ensure that the setting down point is clear of obstructions. Place the cylinder down, maintaining control at all times.
  • Remove the GasGrab™ by releasing your upward pressure and slide the GasGrab™ up and off the bottle.
  • Secure the gas tank to ensure it cannot topple over and fall.
