Care of fire hose Avoid bending/kinking charged hose.

Protect hose laid in road-ways with hose ramps.


The jacket is made of synthetic fibres. These fibres are
susceptible to damage due to: Lift a charged hose at several points to move it.

Care and correct maintenance of fire hoses at various stages of


their storage and use is therefore very important.
After use
Wash soiled hose with mild soap and water immediately. Work
the brush sideways, across the hose, not along the length. Dry
In storage the hose by natural ventilation and under cover. Do not expose
hose to direct rays of sun or radiated heat.
Ensure that fire hose is in clean and dry condition and suitably
treated with french chalk before storing in a cool and dry place. Look out for the development of minute pinholes, Mark, darn

and thoroughly examined before storing.

In use
Clean and dry hose after use, before replacing it in the hose
compartment, to protect it and to prevent the rusting of the
compartment.

Pressure surges are one of the main sources of damage. Use


only the pressure that is necessary. Decrease pressure at the
pump before shutting off the nozzle.
