The low pressure side is the line that goes from the compressor to the evaporator in the heater box. It is for gas only so charge with the can upright. I use an A/C manifold gauge set and therefore cannot answer the charging hose question for sure but if you can securely connect the can to the system with a shut off/control valve in the line it should work.
