How do you use fire extinguishers steps?

Answer 1

The first thing you need to do is understand thedifferent types of fire extinguishers that are available. Class A. is for fire, wood, paper. Class B. is for liquid burning fires such as gasoline and Kitchen grease. Class C. is for electrical fires Class D. is for Combustible metals Class K. for kitchen fires and fats/grease. P.A.S.S stands for Pull, Aim, Squeez and Sweep. The pin should be pulled, and LEAVING THE EXTINGUISHER IN CONTACT WITH THE GROUND, you should squeeze the handle and sweep the CO2 over the base of the fire. When the fire banks down, DO NOT stop using the CO2 or the flames will come right back! Avoid breathing the CO2. Dry Chemical- Pull the pin, aim at the base of the fire and squeeze the handle. When using it on liquids though, be aware that there may be splashing if you are too close, and you may actually SPREAD the fire. Keep going until there is NO evidence of flames. Water- Pull the pin, aim at the base of the fire, and sweep the water at the base. Care should be taken to not be too close and spread the fuels around because of water pressure. Keep going until the flame is gone.

Hi, Fire extinguisher is very easy to use . Here I mention 3 steps on how to use.

step - 1 : Pull the pin - This will allow you to discharge the extinguisher.

step - 2 :Squeeze the top handle or lever - This depresses a button that releases the pressurized extinguishing agent in the extinguisher.

step- 3 : Sweep from side to side - until the fire is completely out. Start using the extinguisher from a safe distance away, then move forward. Once the fire is out, keep an eye on the area in case it re-ignites.

But be careful that when you are using an extinguisher. I have one suggestion that you can sell your damaged extinguisher to halon.us.

You read the instructions printed on the side.

Not all extinguishers have the same priorities.
