2541

Hello All
 
2541 is back in service and new parts are on order.  2541 operators you might have to play with the battery on/off switch a little in order to engage the start buttons and starting of the engine but is should start and run.  Thanks Aaron Bielemeier
 

RE: Knox Box Forms

I have added elevator box information sheets to the knox box form folder mentioned below.

If anyone should come into Station 25 requesting a Knox Box form, they are in the middle drawer at the front window in Tara’s old office.

We have to get a new battery disconnect switch and when we install it we will put in two new push button start switches  at that time. I replaced three burned connections and cleaned 4 more on the batterys and the ones on the starter looked good. I started it 5 times after cleaning said items And it started each time.. any questions please ask me . thanks, Ken

Hello Ken,
 
  This morning while performing our routine vehicle checks I found where 2541 the quint wouldn’t start.  Upon further manipulation of the ignition switches, buttons and battery switch I was able to get the vehicle started.  I then shut the vehicle down and attempted to restart the engine at which time there was no engine engagement.  I have spoken with you in person on the issue and you are evaluating the 2541 at this time.  Thanks Aaron Bielemeier

FoxFury Nomad scene light

Hey Team,

We received the charger for the FoxFury Nomad battery operated scene light today. We placed it by the rest of the battery chargers in the engine bay. The FoxFury Nomad scene light is currently charging as I type. It appears to flash green when its charging and I assume it will turn solid green when it's fully charged. The charger will be labeled accordingly.

It also came with a vehicle charger. The vehicle charger has been labeled and placed in the glove box on 2522.
