The member companies of FEMSA that provide emergency

response equipment and services want responders to know and

understand the following:

1. Fireﬁghting and Emergency Response are inherently

dangerous activities requiring proper training in their hazards

and the use of extreme caution at all times.

2. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to read and understand

any user’s instructions, including purpose and limitations,

provided with any piece of equipment you may be called on

to use.

3. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to know that you have been

properly trained in Fireﬁghting and/or Emergency Response

and in the use, precautions, and care of any equipment you

may be called upon to use.

4. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to be in proper physical

condition and to maintain the personal skill level required to

operate any equipment you may be called upon to use.

5. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to know that your equipment is

in operable condition and has been maintained in accordance

with the manufacturer’s instructions.

6. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in death, burns or

other severe injury.

1.0 MEANING OF SAFETY SIGNAL WORDS

A safety related message is identified by a safety alert symbol and a signal word to indicate the level of risk involved with a particular

hazard. Per ANSI Z535.6, the definitions of the four signal words are as follows:

2.0 SAFETY

DANGER

DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.

WARNING

WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious

injury.

CAUTION CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor

or moderate injury.

NOTICE

NOTICE is used to address practices not related to physical injury.

DANGER

An inadequate supply of pressure and/or flow will cause an ineffective stream and can result

in injury or death. Choose operating conditions to deliver adequate fire suppression. See flow

graphs.

WARNING

This equipment is intended for use by trained personnel for firefighting. Use of this equipment for

other purposes may involve hazards not addressed by this manual. Seek appropriate guidance and

training to reduce risk of injury.

WARNING

Injury or damage can occur from an inadequately supported monitor. The mounting must be

capable of supporting the nozzle reaction force which can be as high as 1500 lbs.

WARNING

The stream exiting a nozzle is very powerful and capable of causing injury and property damage.

Make sure the nozzle is securely attached and pointing in a safe direction before water is turned on.

Do not direct water stream to cause injury or damage to persons or property.

WARNING

Equipment may be damaged if frozen while containing significant amounts of water. Such damage

may be difficult to detect visually. Subsequent pressurization can lead to injury or death. Any time

the equipment is subject to possible damage due to freezing, it must be tested and approved for

use by qualified personnel before being considered safe for use.

WARNING

On many vehicle installations, the monitor is the highest point on the apparatus. Damage or injury

could occur if there is not sufficient clearance to safely pass under doors or overhead obstructions.

Always check parked position of the monitor before moving.

CAUTION The electric drives are current limited but may still produce enough force to cause injury. To avoid

injury from a moving monitor:

• Be aware that the monitor may be remotely operated

• Keep hands and fingers away from pinch points on the monitor

• Never operate the manual override while electric controls are in operation
