Sets out general requirements and schedules for regular inspection, pressure testing, recharging and general servicing of wheeled fire extinguishers. Levels of maintenance are on a time-lapse basis and range, depending on extinguisher type, from 6-monthly inspections to 6-yearly inspections. In addition, inspection and servicing are included for extinguishers located in aggressive environments.

This Standard sets out requirements for the regular inspection, testing, recharging and general servicing of rechargeable wheeled fire extinguishers that at the time of manufacture complied with AS 4265. This Standard may also be applicable to fire extinguishers which are used for demonstration or practice purposes. However, for such extinguishers, consideration should be given to more frequent maintenance due to their increased usage and potential for wear and damage.NOTE: A wheeled fire extinguisher is generally referred to in this Standard as 'an extinguisher' or 'the extinguisher'.
