extinguishing tactics

Proper use of fire extinguishers

• Extinguish area and object fires
  Extinguish area/object fires from the front and bottom. Attack the fire downwind.
• Dripping and flowing fires
  Extinguish dripping and flowing fires from top to bottom. Attack the fire downwind.
• Wall fires
  Extinguish wall fires from below and above. Attack the fire downwind.
• Strong together
  If possible, extinguish with sufficient fire extinguishers at the same time and not one after the other. Warning: watch out for flashbacks.
• Maintenance & repair
  After use, have the extinguisher repaired by the Jockel specialist dealer and have the area of use adjusted. Only then should the extinguisher be set up again at its destination.
