We've been warmly received by the the Billings fire fighters and the maintenance department for several years. It's always a pleasure to stop by and visit for a bit and catch up on what each of us is up to. They've been a great help in learning some of the more advanced aspects of fire fighting apparatus and ideas flow freely in both directions. |
| September 2005 - Maintenance... It's A Full-time, Ongoing Process |
Larry Pinow and ? are diagnosing a foam injection problem, perhaps due to a faulty ground connection. The foam system is shutting down eight to ten seconds after starting. |
Shucks, we missed our opportunity to get a photo of the foam system working for a brief period - lots of foamy suds flowing here and there in the parking area. Larry continues to ponder the doings. |
It is time to sit and read the manual's troubleshooting section one more time. We always enjoy visiting, asking questions and learning all sorts of things that somehow come in handy in the future. Larry's knowledge of the equipment is vast. |
