WARNING: DO NOT USE THESE EXTINGUISHERS ON FIRES
INVOLVING ENERGIZED ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT (CLASS C
HAZARDS), FLAMMABLE METALS (CLASS D HAZARDS) OR ANY
FLAMMABLE THAT WILL REACT WITH WATER. PROTECT FROM
FREEZING!
All fire extinguishers should be installed, inspected and maintained in
accordance with the National Fire Protection Association standard
titled "Portable Fire Extinguishers", NFPA-10 and the requirements of
local authorities having jurisdiction.
When maintenance is indicated it should be performed by trained
persons having proper equipment. Fire extinguishers are pressure
vessels and must be treated with respect and handled with care. They
are mechanical devices and require periodic maintenance to be sure
that they are ready to operate properly and safely. Amerex strongly
recommends that the maintenance of portable fire extinguishers be
done by a trained professional
– your local authorized Amerex
Distributor.
Amerex Corporation makes original factory parts available to insure
proper maintenance
– use of substitute parts releases Amerex of its
warranty obligations. Amerex parts have machined surfaces and
threads that are manufactured to exacting tolerances. O-rings, hoses,
nozzles, horns and all metal parts meet precise specifications and are
subjected to multiple in-house inspections and tests for acceptability.
There are substitute parts available that are incorrectly labeled as UL
component parts, some are advertised as Amerex type. None of these
meet UL requirements and all of them void the Amerex extinguisher
warranty and UL listing. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE.
RECHARGE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS IMMEDIATELY AFTER ANY USE
