Apparatus Pre-trip

[LTPVFD]

All of our apparatus is checked over, head to toe, top to bottom once per week. It is also checked over after every response. For air brake adjustment, any time something does not appear to be right, the apparatus is taken out of service until it is checked by our mechanic.

All of our members are required to have air brake training, but in the 3 departments I have worked (volunteered) with, all Chiefs preferred to have the air brakes adjusted by a qualified mechanic.

Stay safe !!
