5) Close the outlet valve of the fire pump.
6) Open the outlet valve of the water tank.
7) Open the fire monitor ball valve.
8) Open the foam diversion valve, foam proportional mixer, and foam outlet valve.
9) Adjust the foam ratio mixing device: For example, when the fire monitor model is PL32, adjust the handle to 32.
