Procedures using a Fire Extinguisher cart

Operation

1. Move the extinguisher to within approximately 30 feet of the fire site. Keep the extinguisher upright.
   NOTE: The model 775 and 776 extinguisher may be operated in either the vertical or reclined position, however, it will discharge more agent in the vertical position.
2. Twist and pull pin. Open cylinder discharge valve by rotating (pulling) the valve lever toward the hose 90°. The hose is now pressurized with chemical.
3. Pull nozzle, with lever in the closed position, from the mount and extend the hose from the storage rack.
4. Stand back 15 to 20 feet from the fire and aim the nozzle at base of flames nearest you. Open nozzle by pulling handle toward you (be prepared for a discharge recoil by holding the nozzle firmly).
5. Sweep side to side across the base of the fire and past both edges. Progressively follow up until the fire is extinguished. Work the fire away from you while being alert for flashbacks. Move closer as the fire is extinguished but not so close as to scatter or splash the burning materials.
6. When the fire is out, push the nozzle lever forward to the closed position.
7. Evacuate and ventilate the area immediately after extinguishing the fire. The fumes and smoke from any fire may be hazardous and can be deadly.

Shutdown

1. Rotate cylinder discharge valve lever 90° to the closed position. Install pull pin to prevent accidental actuation while transporting to recharge location.
2. Remove residual agent from hose.
3. Return the extinguisher to the upright position.
4. Coil the hose onto the storage rack and position the nozzle into the mount in preparation for transport to the recharge location.

4. Additional Requirements / Comments

If you hear the alarm and cannot see the fire, evacuate immediately:

1. Remain Calm.
2. If you have a visitor, ask them to remain calm and have them accompany you.
3. Walk to the nearest emergency exit. Do not run!
4. If overwhelmed by smoke, crawl. Smoke is lighter than air and will accumulate at the top, pushing clean air closer to the ground.
5. Go down the stairs, hold handrail, and take one step at a time, do not overtake, or get distracted.
6. Do not use elevators until the fire department has announced that the emergency is over.
7. As soon as you exit the building, proceed to the Muster point.
8. Do not leave the Muster point until you have communicated with your supervisor.
9. Do not go back into the building.
