A portable fire extinguisher can be a life and property saving tool. It is important to know how to use one! The National Fire Association suggests remembering the word PASS.

P- Pull The Pin. Hold the nozzle pointing away from you and release the locking mechanism.

A-Aim low. Point the extinguisher at the base of the fire.

S- Squeeze. Squeeze the lever slowly and evenly.

S-Sweep. Sweep the nozzle from side to side.

Become familiar with the extinguisher and read the instructions. Also, ensure you have the correct type of extinguisher for your facility.

There are 5 different classes of fire extinguishers. Class A, B, C, D and K. Each one is used for different types of fires.
