you can see how the wall bracket supplied with most fire extinguishers

Jeep
Fire Extinguisher Rollbar Mount
Yes,
there's definetly something cool about Jeeps with fire extinguishers
attached to their rollbars but these things aren't just for looks.
A $10-$20 investment can save you thousands or prevent the total loss
of your Jeep if you ever have an engine fire without one. Here's an
easy and cheap way to install one on your Jeep.
What
You Will Need
•
Small Fire Extinguisher with Wall Mount Bracket
• Zip Ties or Pipe Clamps
• Pliers
• Wire Cutters
• Flat-head Screwdriver
Installation
1.
It is important not to strap the entire Fire Extinguisher to your
rollbar as it may prevent you from removing it in a timely manner.
Putting out a fire is all about speed and the more difficult you make
it to get to, the longer it will take before you can attack the fire....
not good. So, make sure the extinguisher you get comes with a wall
mounting bracket.
2. Using a pair of pipe
clamps or zip-ties, attach your mounting bracket to your rollbar and
cinch it down with a pair of pliers. If you are using zip-ties, cut
the excess with wire cutters.
3. Attach your extinguisher
using the bracket straps and you're done.
That's it. Please let me know if you have any
questions. |
