Hauling hose from the top of the truck is a pain, sometimes literally. And repacking it foot by foot is usually the last thing you want to do. But you’ve never had much choice in the matter. Until now.

The Pack Mule™ Ergonomic Hosebed from Pierce gets fire fighters off the top of the truck. It hydraulically deploys a full-size hosebed to waist level (38''-44'') within 26 seconds. And, when you’re done, the Pack Mule — living up to its name — makes the job a whole lot easier. You don’t have to stand, crawl, or hunch over in the hosebed. It’s more comfortable, more convenient and requires far less exertion and can minimize the risk of shoulder injury. And an independent analysis by an ergonomic expert indicates that using the Pack Mule reduces spinal compression for firefighters by 90% compared to a traditional hosebed.

• Provides a comfortable, ergonomic position for pulling and repacking hose.
• Hosebed side panels conveniently flip-down for repacking.

• Powered by a transmission-mounted PTO.
