Lock out tag out station

Hello All,

  Today we mounted the Lock out Tag out station at station 25A.  It is located on the wall just outside the washer room.  A new SOG and training should be coming in the near future.  Thanks Aaron B

Air hose disconnect on 2523

Please remember that the air line disconnect for 2523 is now a MANUAL removal.  Ken Yuill has repaired the swing arm assembly and replaced the hose with a MANUAL connector.  The Auto-EJECT air plug on 2523 is broken.  You must remove the air hose before driving away.  The plug is a little tricky to disconnect right now.  On Friday Ken C. Nelson will work on replacing the recessed auto eject air plug with a flush mounted manual port on the side of 2523.  Thank you.

2541 repairs

2541 has been returned from shops with most of the repairs completed.

 

The passenger side rear door has been repaired and no latches properly.  The pin on the ladder to change the masterstream location from Rescue to Water Tower has been re-worked and now has a T-handle for better movement.

 

They are continuing to research the problems with the pattern control on the master stream and will schedule that repair in the near future.

Hazmat equipment

I have made a checkout sheet for checking out equipment from the hazmat trailer. It is hanging underneath and attached to the portable radio battery charger shelf. If you go to a class or get prior permission to use a piece of equipment from the hazmat vehicles fill it out on the check sheet. When you have returned the piece of equipment to its proper place and is in ready status fill out the returned date. If anything has happened to the piece of equipment it is your responsibility to make sure it is returned to ready status. Thanks
