I had to send this video to my son so he wouldn't do what I did and not close the valve and shoot oil out the top and flood the floor with oil 😅 thanks for the video 👍

thank for showing how to work this did the regulator cap pops in and out to lock it do you need to do that or simply turning left and right to operate.

Did the big black splatter pan come with that tank? I've been looking at them and I haven't seem one with the additional splash pan. Nice!

Poor design, how did that make it to be sold worldwide, the neck can easily fall when is worn.
