- 1. The Firefighter will don appropriate PPE and will “catch” the hydrant.
a. FF will be seated in the apparatus with appropriate PPE.
b. The signal will be made for the FF to disembark the apparatus and catch the hydrant.
c. FF will follow the correct sequence to establish a water supply and will charge the supply hose when instructed.
d. FF will follow the supply hose back to the apparatus checking for kinks or leaks in the line and confirm with the pump operator that a water supply has been established.
e. Evolution will end upon satisfactory completion.
Flush the hydrant!
Overall very well done. Everyone has that kind of oops from time to time. :)
Why he did not flush the Hydrant? Nobody wants this brown Water Soup in the Tank.
We flow test all hydrants here every year and our water system is surprisingly clean...flushing has been determined unnecessary.
LOL
He didn’t wrap the hydrant with the hose . Could have gotten seriously hurt if the truck went to fast and the hose snapped around on him - LT on the FD
No, that can’t happen as he folds the coupling back on itself so if the hose gets caught somewhere, it just takes off without hurting him. That’s how we teach hydrants. We feel wrapping is unnecessary.
@@kamloopsfirerescuetraining5089 fair enough I guess , I know in our dept if you fail to wrap it’s a fail . Thxs .
