Description:
The Type 2 Engine features a three man cab, with an offset rear jump seat, as requested by a local department of forestry. If the rear jump seat is removed, additional equipment, such as ALS/Paramedic gear can be carried. The ALS/Paramedic gear can be located in the cab or the SCBA masks and bottles can be moved into the cab and the ALS/Paramedic gear can be relocated to the Driver's side compartment.
The Type 2 Engine can be modified in a variety of ways, including the aforementioned cab modifications. The Type 2 Engine can be fitted with a 1000 gpm deck gun or with the reduction of some of the storage in the bottom rear compartment, a 750 gallon booster tank, and of course, four wheel drive is also an option.
The Type 2 Engine has been on the drawing board for a few years now, but was only recently completed. After a few trial runs, several modifications were made, including changes to the hose bed and the in cab storage and jump seat area. We feel this is a unique apparatus that will hopefully fill the gap between full size Type 1 (or Class A) Engines and smaller mini pumpers or attack engines in your fire department.
Note: The pictures of the Type 2 Engine were taken after the rig was loaned out to a local department of forestry, hence the "FDNY 343" decal and the California Exempt License Plates, however, the department's magnetic door markings were removed prior to the photographs being taken.
