• Four (4) section, telescoping steel ladder constructed of high strength steel, certified to 70,000 psi
• Bolt-on egress with full 500 lb. rating
• Modular construction allows for easy component replacement if damage were to occur
• Axle capacities - 21k front and 48k rear tractor axles, 22, 800# trailer axle
Ladder Assembly
• Environmentally sealed ladder sections to protect against corrosion
• All ladder rungs are round and welded to each section in two (2) places with k-bracing for rigidity

• Extension and retraction motion by dual hydraulic powered cylinders and cable pulley system
• Rotation motion through a 46.00" swing bearing/spur gear, driven by one (1) planetary hydraulic motor
• Elevation motion through two (2) double acting, lift cylinders (5 deg below horizontal to 75 deg above)
• All cylinders designed with integral holding valve cartridges in the event of a hydraulic line failure
• Rotational brake applies when pressure control is released
Turntable Deck
• 96.00" wide x 77.25" long turntable is constructed with 1.00" thick deck, coated with a non-skid, chemical resistant material
• Access to the turntable is from pull-out stairs, one (1) each side of the truck
• Stairs are lighted by (2) lights activated by the aerial master switch
• Includes control console and space for hydraulic and electrical components
Aerial Device Power
• Hydraulic load sensing piston pump, capable of multiple-function operation without speed loss
• High pressure hydraulic manifold block, with test ports
• Pressure and return filtration system
• Hydraulic reservoir of 38 gallons
• Relief valve set at 3150 psi to protect hydraulic system components
• 12V emergency power unit (EPU) with 30-minute run time, capable of stowing the ladder in the event of a power loss
Control Stations
• Lower control box station located on each side for stabilizer operation
• Turntable control station controls elevation, extension, and rotation
Aerial Waterway
• Water swivel 5.00” capable of 360 degree rotation
• Telescoping anodized aluminum waterway capable of 1000 gpm
• 5.00" dia. base waterway pipe
• 5.00" swivel capable of operating between -5 degrees and up to 75 degrees
• A 250 psi pressure relief valve located below the torque box
• Aerial monitor (electric), capable of 1000 gpm, Akron self-stowing monitor (standard)
• 5.00" inlet to the aerial waterway located on each side of the unit
Communication System
• Atkinson communication system between the aerial tip and the turntable console, with optional third station at pump panel
• Master control at the turntable with push button talk and volume control
• Self contained "hand-off' speaker/mic at the tip
Electrical System
• Electrical swivel capable of 360 degrees with 28 collector rings, each capable of 20 amps
• 110V electrical system, one 20 amp NEMA L5-20, 3 prong water proof receptacle (optional)
• Four (4) 12V Collins lights standard, two at tip, two at base
Pumphouse
• A midship pumphouse, centered in the frame, to rear of the cab
• Waterous or Hale pumps available
• Valves-Akron standard (Elkhart optional)
Aerial Body
• Compartmentation fabricated from .125" 5052 aluminum
• Side compartments integral assembly with the rear fenders
• Neoprene elastomer isolators will isolate chassis movement from the body structure
• Dura-surf standard on ladders racks for ease of operation; rollers optional
• Bodies are formed and welded construction for durable, long lasting design without the unnecessary weight.
• Exclusive Pierce underslung steel body supports featuring 3-point isolated mount system. This reduces torsional stress and road shock from being transmitted into the body. The underslung design prevents compartment floors from sagging after years of use.
• Aluminum extruded rub rails, bolted on for easy repair
• Galvanneal steel, stainless steel, high-strength aluminum
• Interior of all compartments are painted with multispec to hide dirt, abrasions, and protect from oil, gas, and hydraulic spills
• Automotive-style hinged doors constructed with double pan, double seals, enclosed latches, and .25" hinge pins
• Roll-up doors w/lifetime warranty (available in satin or painted finish)
• Handrails are Pierce's exclusive "cross knurled" design to reduce hand slippage
