INSPECTING THE EXTINGUISHER
This extinguisher should be inspected at regular intervals (monthly or more often if
circumstances dictate) to insure that it is ready for use. Inspection is a “quick check”
that a fire extinguisher is available and is in operating condition. It is intended to give
reasonable assurance that the fire extinguisher is fully charged. This is done by
verifying that it is in its designated place, that it has not been actuated or tampered
with, and that there is no obvious physical damage or condition to prevent its
operation.
