A support frame attachable to a pressurized gas cylinder pallet is disclosed. The support frame includes an adjustable first support member having a first brace and a second brace and a second support member having a third brace that extends from the first support member. The first support member is adjustable to move the first and second brace into engagement with the pallet and the third brace is slidable along the second support member to also move the third brace into engagement with the pallet. The three points of contact stabilize the support frame on the pallet such that a manifold can be connected to the support frame for connection to the cylinders on the pallet. Also disclosed is a kit including the support frame and the manifold.

1. A support frame attachable to an article comprising: a first support member having a first brace and a-second brace that each define an opening to abut against the article, the first support member being adjustable, by lengthening or shortening, to move the first brace and the second brace into engagement with the article;a second support member extending from the first support member, the second support member having a third brace, the third brace being slidable along the second support member to move the third brace into engagement with the article;an arm mounted on the second support member in a generally horizontal orientation having a first position that places the arm over the article when the first, second, and third braces engage the article; anda fluid-control manifold coupled to the arm, the fluid-control manifold comprising one or more ports and a valve that controls fluid flow through the one or more ports;wherein a plane corresponding to a central longitudinal axis of the second support member transects the first member and the openings of both the first and second braces face each other toward the plane or face away from one another away from the plane thereby enabling an outside fit or an inside fit of the first support member to the article. 2. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the second support member is removable from the first support member. 3. The support frame of claim 2 wherein the first support member includes a supporting bracket extending therefrom that received an end of the second support member. 4. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the second support member is substantially perpendicular to the first support member. 5. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the first support member includes a first locking mechanism that holds the first and second braces in engagement with the article. 6. The support frame of claim 5 wherein the third brace includes a second locking mechanism that holds the third brace in engagement with the article. 7. The support frame of claim 6 wherein the third brace further includes a sleeve section and a brace section, the brace section being open for engagement with the article. 8. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the third brace defines an opening to receive the article, wherein the opening faces a direction generally perpendicular to the direction of the opening of the first brace. 9. The support frame of claim 1 wherein at least one of the first, second, and third braces is generally V-shaped, X-shaped, I-shaped, ]-shaped, U-shaped, or C-shaped. 10. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the first support member includes a sleeve and a slide, wherein the slide is slidable within the sleeve. 11. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the arm is pivotally mounted to the second support member for rotation about the second support member's longitudinal axis to allow the arm to rotate between at least the first position and a second position. 12. The support frame of claim 11 further comprising a third locking mechanism locking the arm to the second support member. 13. The support frame of claim 11 wherein the arm is a cantilevered arm having a mount coupling the arm to the second support member, the mount having a plurality of holes engageable by the third locking mechanism to lock the arm in one of a plurality of preselected positions. 14. A support frame attachable to a cylinder pallet comprising: a first support member having a first brace and a second brace, the first support member being adjustable to move the first brace and the second brace closer to one another or further away from one another and thereby into engagement with the cylinder pallet;a second support member extending generally perpendicularly from the first support member, the second support member having a third brace, the third brace being slidable along the second support member to move the third brace into engagement with the cylinder pallet;a fluid-control manifold coupled to the second support member opposite its connection to the first support member in a first position where the fluid-control manifold extends generally perpendicularly therefrom and is also generally perpendicular to the orientation of the first support member thereby placing the fluid-control manifold over the portion of the cylinder pallets where cylinders are positioned,wherein the fluid-control manifold comprises one or more ports and a valve that controls fluid flow through the one or more ports. 15. The support frame of claim 14 wherein the second support member is removable from the first support member. 16. The support frame of claim 15 wherein the first support member includes a supporting bracket extending therefrom having received an end of the second support member. 17. The support frame of claim 14 wherein the first support member includes a first locking mechanism that holds the first and second braces in engagement with the cylinder pallet. 18. The support frame of claim 15 wherein the third brace includes a second locking mechanism that holds the third brace in engagement with the cylinder pallet. 19. The support frame of claim 14 wherein at least one of the first, second, and third braces is V-shaped, X shaped, I-shaped, ]-shaped, U-shaped, or C-shaped. 20. The support frame of claim 17 wherein the first support member includes a sleeve and a slide, wherein the slide is slidable within the sleeve. 21. The support frame of claim 14 further comprising an arm coupling the fluid-control manifold to the second support member for rotation of the fluid-control manifold about the second support member's longitudinal axis. 22. The support frame of claim 21 further comprising a third locking mechanism locking the arm to the second support member. 23. The support frame of claim 21 wherein the arm is a cantilevered arm having a mount coupling the arm to the second support member, the mount having a plurality of holes engageable by the third locking mechanism to lock the arm in one of a plurality of preselected positions. 24. The support frame of claim 14 further comprising a hose connected per port of the fluid-control manifold, wherein each hose is connectable to an individual-cylinder in the cylinder pallet. 25. The support frame of claim 1 wherein the arm is de-mountably coupled to the second support member and the arm is repositionable thereon to move the arm between at least the first position and a second position. 26. The support frame of claim 1 further comprising a hose connected per port of the fluid-control manifold; wherein the arm has a cantilevered attachment to the second support member and the fluid-control manifold is coupled to the arm distally from the cantilevered attachment.
