INTRODUCTION - FIREMAN, FIREMAN-T

The FIREMAN kits are the equipement specially dedicated for the use by fire brigades when performing different task in the heights or when it is desirable to keep a certain distance between the place of action and the operator (e.g. because of safety reasons). The kits are very usefull especially in the cases when it is necessary to make an action in the height without using the expensive mobile technology (man-carrying lifting platforms) and in the places that are inaccessible for this automobile technology.

GENERALLY

There are two versions of the kits FIREMAN:

1) FIREMAN (FM) is based on the variable set of the tubular sections. By assembling and joining of the several sections the pole of the required length is obtained and the tools are fitted into the top of the pole. A variety of works is possible to carry on with the pole and tools. The reachable distance is 11m when the pole is held vertically and 9m horizontally.

2) FIREMAN-T (NEW 2004!) (FMT) is the telescopic extendable pole consisting of four or six tubular sections. By pulling out the individual sections and locking them by means of the special locks the pole of the required length is assembled. The tools are fitted into the top of the pole. A variety of works is possible to carry on with the pole and tools. The reachable distance is 9m when the pole is held vertically and 7m horizontally.
Extending or retracting of the telescopic pole is very easy and fast. Thanks to the special design of the locks it is possible to vary the length of the pole so it is appropriate for the given task. The pole when retracted is only 1.7m long which is very convenient for the transport and storage.

Exceptional lightness of the pole as well as the tools make it possible to control the pole and perform the difficult tasks by one only, maximum second man is necessary. The work with the kit is safe - the safe distance between the place of action and the operator is ensured. The pole is adjustable in its length therefore appropriate length of the pole for given task can be selected.

APPLICATION

Especially in the cases when it is necessary to make an action in the height without using the expensive mobile technology (man-carrying lifting platforms) and in the places that are inaccessible for this automobile technology. Extensive range of the tools for:

  • tree pruning - cutting the dry or partially broken branches

  • tearing down of the structures after the fire, pulling down the braches etc.

  • catching on and pulling out of the floating objects or drowned persons on the rivers and water reservoirs

  • fast help to the drowning from a shore or a boat

  • scraping off the released old plaster or the icing

  • shaking down the ice accretion from the power lines, icicle removal

  • raking down the dangerous snow deposits from the roofs and other inclined surfaces

  • rescue works during fire, flood or other accident events

  • lifting up the conductors, hanging cables etc. (when they are powered off)

  • work in heights above 10m from a lifting platform (scaffold)

  • work for removal of oil spill or other toxicant substance leakage from the water or ground surfaces

  • pulling out the objects from the heights (e.g. from treetops) or from the depths (e.g. from sewerage)

The range of the tools is continuously extended, therefore the universality and utility value of the kit is increased. The kit occupies very small place in the fire-fighters and it is exceptionally lightweight.

Preparation for action at a river weir. By using Fireman 8,5m with the rake for pulling 2A it was possible to manipulate the floating objects in the area of weir while maintaing a safe distance of the boat from whirling water. Manipulation with the floating tree trunk close to the inlet filter of the water power station Nove Mlyny (CZ).
