Pull Aim Squeeze Sweep This acronym refers specifically to the steps which need to be taken in order to properly use a fire extinguisher. First you 'Pull' the pin in the extinguisher in order to unlock it; then you 'Aim' the nozzle towards the base of the fire with one hand, while holding the extinguisher in the other (doesn't matter which hand you use as long as you're comfortable holding it); then you 'Squeeze' the trigger to initiate extinguishing; and last you 'Sweep', so that while aiming at the base of the fire you are going steadily side to side as you extinguish!!! Hope this helps!!!
