70% to pass

The all-purpose nozzle will produce a fog spray when you _______________.

A insert a fog applicator between the fire hose and nozzle

B pull the nozzle handle all the way back toward the operator

C pull the nozzle handle back to a position where the handle is perpendicular to the plane of the nozzle

D push the nozzle handle forward as far as it will go

AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) pull the nozzle handle back to a position where the handle is perpendicular to the plane of the nozzle. When the nozzle handle is pulled back to a perpendicular position, it opens the nozzle's internal mechanism to produce a fog spray pattern. This fog spray is useful for dispersing the water more effectively, such as when fighting fires. The other answer choices do not correctly describe the proper nozzle position to achieve the fog spray setting.
