MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS FOR ELECTRIC LADDER PIPE
Your Electric Ladder Pipe monitor and nozzle should be inspected prior to and after each use, to ensure it is in good
operating condition. Periodically, an unanticipated incident occurs where the Ladder Pipe is misused in a manner that
is inconsistent with standard operating practices and those listed in IFSTA. A partial list of potential misuse includes:
• Operating above maximum rated pressure and flow.
• Not draining, and allowing water to freeze inside.
• Prolonged exposure to temperatures above 130°F, or below -25°F.
• Operating in a corrosive environment.
• Having the Ladder Pipe nozzle hit a fixed object during operating or transportation.
• Other misuse that might be unique to your specific environment.
Also there are many "tell tale" signs that indicate repair is in order, such as:
• Controls that are either inoperable or difficult to operate.
• Excessive wear.
• Poor discharge performance.
• Water leaks.
If any of the above situations are encountered, the Electric Ladder Pipe should be taken out of service, repaired, and
tested by a qualified technician before placing it back in service.
MAINTENANCE FOR SABERMASTER NOZZLE
• Under normal conditions, periodically flushing the nozzle with clean water and and cleaning grit and dirt from around
exterior moving parts will allow the nozzle to operate as designed.
• Over time, the seals may need to be replaced. This can be accomplished by returning the nozzle to Akron Brass for
repair.
