MANUAL FOR SAFE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Lack of foam can place operator at risk of injury or death. Establish foam flow before advancing into
hazardous situations. Make sure you do not run out of foam concentrate before the task is
complete. Check concentrate level periodically and keep an adequate supply on hand.

Improper use of foam can result in injury or damage to the environment. Follow the foam
concentrate manufacturer's instructions and fire service training to avoid the following: Using the
wrong type of foam on a fire, i.e. Class A foam on Class B flammable liquid fire; Mishandling of
concentrates; Plunging foam into pools of liquid fuels; Directing foam onto yourself or other
personnel.

There is a wide variety of foam concentrates. Each user is responsible for verifying that any foam
concentrate chosen to be used with this unit has been tested to assure that the foam obtained is
suitable for the purpose intended.

Read instruction manual before use. Operation of this device without understanding the manual
and receiving proper training is a misuse of this equipment. Users who have not read and
understood all operating and safety instructions are not qualified to operate this portable foam
system.

This manual should be kept available to all operating and maintenance personnel.

This instruction manual is intended to familiarize firefighters and maintenance personnel

with the operation, servicing, and safety procedures associated with the PRO/pak Portable Foam
System.
