• 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 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. 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. INSTALL THE QUICK-RELEASE MOUNTING BRACKET ON A WALL 1. The extinguisher has a quick- release bracket for wall mounting. 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 (see "Note" above). 2. After installing the mounting bracket, replace the extinguisher on the bracket with the label facing outward, so the label can be easily read. Raise and wrap the bracket straps around the cylinder and snap the buckle closed. FE5GM AND FE10GM ONLY--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 crafts, portable fire extinguishers shall be located to be readily accessible. Extinguishers shall be secured with a marine bracket to permit immediate release. • On marine crafts, extinguisher agent cylinders shall be mounted a minimum of 2 inches (5 cm) above moist or wet surfaces to reduce the danger of corrosion. CHECKING AND INSPECTING THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER • Do not check the pressure or test the fire extinguisher by spraying it, even briefly. Once used it will gradually lose pressure and will not be fully charged for use in an emergency. • When the pointer drops into the red area, the extinguisher may still be pressurized. You must discharge the unit completely before disposing of it! Inspect the extinguisher once a week. 1. Remove the extinguisher from the mounting bracket and inspect the gauge. If the yellow pointer is in the GREEN area, the extinguisher is properly pressurized and ready to use. If the pointer drops into the RED area, the extinguisher has lost pressure and DISCARD WHEN POINTER IS IN THE RED AREA should be replaced. If the unit is new or still under warranty, return it to BRK Brands, Inc. (see warranty information at the end of this manual). If the warranty has expired, take the extinguisher outside and discharge its contents completely, discard the unit, and replace it with a new one immediately. See “Disposing of a Used Extinguisher” for details. 2. Check for signs of damage or misuse. Make sure you can still read all the text on the label. 3. Carefully examine the surface of the extinguisher for corrosion. You can help prevent corrosion by cleaning the extinguisher if it gets wet or dirty. If you notice corrosion during the warranty period, return the unit to BRK Brands, Inc. (See "Limited Warranty" at t...
