• Never locate this extinguisher close to an engine, stove or other source of heat. It is pressurized and could rupture or explode if exposed to temperatures over 150° F (66° C). • This extinguisher contains a dry powder extinguishing agent. The agent/powder is nontoxic, but can irritate skin. When using this unit, avoid breathing the powder. Always ventilate the area after use. WHERE TO INSTALL THIS EXTINGUISHER A Fire Extinguisher Should Be Mounted: • In the vicinity of (but not on or in) a potential source of heat and/or fire, like an oven or stove. • Where it is easy to reach, near an exit or an escape route from the room. • In a location that is convenient, in plain sight, and 3-1/2 to 5 feet (1 to 1.5 meters) above the floor. • Store the extinguisher high enough to keep it out of the reach of small children. • On a clean, dry surface where the temperature does not go above 120° F (49° C) or below –40° F (–40° C). HOW TO INSTALL THIS EXTINGUISHER • Do not mount the extinguisher on drywall or plaster without adequate support. Use strong screws or bolts to mount the bracket securely into solid wood or metal that can support it, like a wooden partition stud. Secure mounting is needed so you can remove the extinguisher quickly and easily in an emergency. Also, if the extinguisher is not held securely, it could drop to the floor and injure people or damage the extinguisher. • DO NOT BREAK THE SAFETY SEAL! This seal prevents accidental discharge of the fire extinguisher. Break the seal only in an emergency before using the fire extinguisher. INSTALL THE MOUNTING BRACKET ON A WALL 1. The extinguisher has a bracket for wall mounting. 2. Install the mounting bracket on a wooden stud or other solid surface that will support the weight of the extinguisher using the screws or bolts you purchased. NOTE: Since wall surface types vary, mounting screws are not included. Purchase screws or bolts specifically designed for the surface on which you will mount the fire extinguisher. The fire extinguisher label lists its maximum weight. Mounting screw head type should be #8 pan on round head screws with #8 flat washers. 3. After installing the mounting bracket, replace the extinguisher on the bracket with the label facing outward, so the label can be easily read. Wrap the bracket strap around the cylinder and snap the buckle closed. OR INSTALLING THE MOUNTING BRACKET IN A MARINE CRAFT According to the NFPA Standard 302 (Fire protection Standard for Pleasure and Commercial Motor Craft): • On marine craft, portable fire extinguishers shall be located to be readily accessible. Extinguishers shall be secured with a marine bracket to permit immediate release. • On marine craft, extinguisher agent cylinders shall be mounted a minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) above moist or wet surfaces to reduce the danger of corrosion.
