There’s a new weapon in the arsenal for fighting brush fires in Pike County.
Pebble Twp. Fire Chief, Jerry Wessel says the two-year long process finally came through with a happy ending. Through grant funding, the department which covers 35 square miles of Pike County, the township needed to raise just $18,000 of the cost of the Ford F-550 truck which will replace two trucks.
Wessel says the old brush truck had been in service for more than 30 years. The new truck, coming in at $167,000, distributed water more than 30 feet from its front bumper sprayers and the remote controlled Tornado nozzle shoots water between 50-75 feet during a demonstration at the firehouse October 31st. The nozzle can has a wide range of capabilities, including launching an oscillating plume or a wide range spray of water.
The truck was built by Weis Fire & Safety in Salina, Kansas. Wessel drove the truck back home to Ohio late last week and said its presence commanded quite a few looks from other travelers.
Pebble Twp. FD has mutual aid with neighboring townships in Pike County and bordering Pike County.
FROM WEIS FIRE & SAFETY EQUIPMENT: The Weis Quick Attack 300RM has ample storage space, a PAC Tool Board, two rear Hannay hose reels, TFT Tornado monitor with joystick control, a side whipline, and front ground sweeps. . . this big tire brush truck has the ability to reach those difficult-to-reach locations and extinguish a fire.
