The water tanks shall be constructed of non -corrosive, non-metallic, durable, cross -linked polyethylene to eliminate rust, corrosion, and stress cracking. The water tanks shall be mounted at and below the truck f(ame level to provide a low center of gravity for truck stability. A 2-1/2 inch diameter x. 25 feet long hydrant hose with hydrant wrench is supplied on the unit. An anti -syphon. fill device is installed on the unit. inspection ports shall be provided to fill or to add chemicals to the water system. A sight gauge to indicate water level is located within sight of the operator station. The water tanks are protected by a minimum of It gauge steel plating mounted below the water tanks for protection against road hazards when unit travels over the road. off the road or to land fills, The water tanks carry a ta" a r replacement warranty. HIGH-PRESSURE WATER PUMP The high pressure water pump shall be rated to deliver smooth continuous pressure and flow through the entire flow range of the pump, The high pressure shall have smooth continuous flow for both the high pressure system and the hand gun system. A continuous duty flow of 80 g.p.m. and 2500 p,s.i shall be provided. High-pressure relief valves are provided for both the high-pressure system and hand gun system. The water pump ope(ates Independently of the vacuum system and be powered by hydrostatics. The water pump is capable of running dry. Controls for starting and stopping the water pump and to vary the flow and pressure shall be at the front hose reel operator's station. The high-pressure water pump is equipped with a cold weather drain valve. The valve allows the operator to completely drain the high-pressure pump, HOSE REEL ASSEMBLY The hose reel assembly is mounted on the front of the vehicle. The hose reel shalt have a minimum of 30" inside diameter with a capacity of 800'x V hose. The hose reel is hydraulically powered In both directions by means of a double chain and sprocket drive. The controls for operating the motor have a flow control device to regulate the rotational speed of the reel in both directions. All hydraulic hoses are behind a steel housing to protect operator from hydraulic oil if a hose fails. The hydraulic motor, chain, and sprockets have a protective cover or are mounted on the radiator side of the hose reel for operator safety. The hose reel articulates 180 degrees to the passenger side allowing operator to work in any position through this arc. This allows greater flexibility in truck placement for manholes located In tough areas and provides greater safety to the operator. Reel extends beyond the width of unit for greater flexibility for positioning reel over offset manholes, catch basins, etc. A hydraulically controlled outrigger leg is supplied that comes in contact with the ground at any one position. A warning light is located in the cab to warn the operator that the outrigger leg Is not in its transported position prior to moving the unit. A manuall bypass system for the hose reel assembly is provided to manually pull the reel assembly away from its transported position. This feature allows operator to check fluids without starting engines. )ET HOSE 600'x V' jet redder hose wil I be supplied rated for 2500 psi working pressure and 6250 psi burst pressure.
