7. When setting off fireworks such as spray flowers, small gift flowers, and combination fireworks, they should be placed flat on the ground and firmly secured. During the setting off, there should be no reverse movement, and the person lighting the fireworks should immediately leave.
Setting off fireworks and firecrackers in a safe environment
When setting off rotating aerial and ground rotating fireworks, it is necessary to pay attention to the surrounding environment, place them on a flat ground, ignite the fuse, and leave for viewing. When setting off handheld or string hanging rotating fireworks, hold the string or use a small bamboo pole to hang the cotton thread, ignite it, and extend it forward. Do not approach the fireworks with your body. When setting off rotating fireworks, be sure to nail the fireworks firmly to a wall or wooden board, and rotate them by hand. Only when they can rotate well can the fuse be ignited and left for viewing.
It is your responsibility to set off fireworks and firecrackers, and it is your obligation to set them off in accordance with the law. Safe setting off starts from me. At the beginning of the new year, let us shine together with fireworks.
