Fire Extinguisher and Mounting Bracket

E41363-UN-24MAY99
A 9.5 L (2-1/2 gal) pressurized-water fire extinguisher can
be mounted on the MoCo. (See your John Deere dealer.)
Equip the MoCo with a water-type fire extinguisher. Extinguisher
should be properly charged and easily accessible in an emergency.
Large capacity water fire extinguishers are recommended because application
of water can cool hot parts to prevent a fire. If a fire does occur,
water will help drown the flame and cool off hot parts, to prevent
the fire from rekindling. Train operators on proper use of the extinguisher
and the need to keep it charged at all times. If MoCo is subject to
cold weather, use an approved nonflammable anti-freeze solution to
prevent damage.
