Automatic Fire Ext.
System
Utilizes an instrument
display unit (gauge) that
provides the operator
with a system status of
a charged or uncharged
condition by an audible
alarm. With the ignition
switch on and no light
indicates that the system
has been discharged.
If the system should discharge the ignition system will be
instantaneously interrupted. Should this occur shut down
the engine and any electrical system components along
with closing any open hatches.
If a fi re has started in the engine compartment fi nd
the system manual cable assembly located at the helm.
Remove the safety pin from the
“Fire T Handle” and pull fi rmly
on the “Fire” handle which will
activate the fi re extinguisher unit
in the engine compartment. A
loud “rushing air” sound may be
heard. Complete discharge will
take several seconds. Keep the
compartment closed for a period
of time suffi cient to permit the
agent to soak all areas of the
protected space. This allows hot
metals and fuel time to cool. Refer to the manufacturer’s
owner’s manual for additional information.
