Fire Safety Equipment
Haeger systems do not produce thermal, biological, fire or radiation hazards etc., however if in the event
of a fire, having a Multi-Class rated fire extinguisher within a reasonable distance of the machine
operator(s) is a sound safety practice and is recommended. Your fire extinguisher (or fire extinguishers)
should be able to extinguish fires involving ordinary combustible materials, flammable/combustible
liquids and energized electrical equipment.
The following is an example of a fire extinguisher with a Multi-Class rating.

The classes of fire for the UK, Europe, Asia etc., are different to those used in the USA and Australia so
remember to always read labels carefully and consult a trained fire professional.
