Spray the fire extinguisher over the well cover or
non-flammable blanket.
This will seal o additional oxygen thus smothering the re.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT remove the blanket or cover until the fire
department arrives. The oil may re-ignite.
This is high voltage equipment - be sure main
disconnect is "OFF" before proceeding.
Contact the local fire department!
Disconnect power to unit!
This will cut o power to the heating elements and allow the oil to
cool, reducing the ash point temperature and making it easier to
stop the re.
Immediately cover the well with the well cover and/or
heavy non-flammable blanket or canvas.
This will cut o oxygen to the re.
CAUTION!
DO NOT attempt to ght a grease re by spraying the
re extinguisher directly on the burning shortening.
The force will cause the burning shortening to be sprayed
on adjoining equipment making it dicult to contain the re.
Only use a re extinguisher lled with CO
2
or Halon for ammable
liquids and oils and suitable for electric powered equipment.
DO NOT use water or water based extinguisher on a grease re.
