Day Three & Four…

October 12th, 2005

These last 2 days we went over hoses; the first day, we learned the different ways to roll hoses, and different ways to load the different sizes of hoses onto a truck. The next day, we learned how to perform the drills we may be expected to do on the State skills final exam.
Here are some of the things I learned….

Extending a 2.5″ line pre-game coach tips:

Clamping the 2.5″ hose:

Bleeding the line and removing the nozzle….

Extending the line with a 1.5″ hose.

Re-setting the skillstation.

Here we are practising attaching a 2.5″ female hose coupling to a 1.75″ female hose coupling using a choice of adapters, hose appliances, and/or reducers…..

Scott gettin’ ‘er done!
