Haz Mat warning lights

 
 
 
Hey everyone,
 
During daily rig checks today I noticed that there are two sets of warning lights on the Haz Mat tractor that seem to be malfunctioning. One set on the hood of the engine cover and the other on the flatbed part of the tractor. Everything else works just fine, if we could get this looked at that would be great.
 
Thank you,

2541

2541 is back in service. Kevin says the upper station is working fine, he adjusted the voltage to the controls. They have had to order valve coils for the valves on the pump panel. While they had it they did the 10 hrs ladder inspection and the only thing they found was that one of the rung covers needs to be replaced. They have ordered a new one.

2541 ladder

Last night while using 2541 in drill it was noticed that while lowering the ladder from the pedestal position it was very jerky and you could not feather it down slowly at all.  Further inspection showed that you could not lower the ladder from the pump panel controls at all, the emergency controls inside the pedestal worked just fine and you could operate slowly from there.

RE: Station two bay door

I have contacted Coast Garage and they will be working on this situation. Meanwhile the bay door will need to be opened manually if needed.

Subject: Station two bay door

The number one bay door at station two has been acting up again and was disconnect yesterday. When we returned 2521 to station two today we thoroughly problem solved the issue.

What we found was that the electrical socket that the garage door motor was hooked to is in some way faulty and not allowing the motor to operate.

Bottom Line is that this is an electrical problem with the building that we will pass on, and that the bay door still needs to be opened manually.

Thanks
Rob

2523

2523's number one crosslay/cafs is still filling with air. C-shift passed this on to shops. Kevin daw stopped by this morning and disconnected the control valve for the cafs system, and he asked us to remove the air from the line.

Bottom line is that the cafs system is oos, and the line is drained of most of the air. So keep an eye on the line for excessive air.

Thanks
Rob
