NSPECTION

1. Monitor Visual Inspection

The monitor should be inspected regularly. Careful inspection for damage to the
monitor or nozzle is especially important after use in emergency operations.

2. Flow Inspection

Flow water to check nozzle pattern. If pattern is disrupted, remove nozzle and check
for debris lodged between the nozzle stem and body, or in the stream shaper inlet.
During nozzle flow test, inspect monitor swivel joints for leaks.
