The Anderson Township (OH) Fire Department designed this SUMMIT FIRE APPARATUS pumper to handle general firefighting, EMS, hazmat, and rescue responses. Chief Mark Ober says that the pump controls are protected by a roll-up door for faster repairs (no removal of panels), visual ability for engineers to check the vehicle and understand its operations, and protection from the elements. The side-mount pump panel shortens the vehicle’s length, and the low speedlays make for easier deployment along with the large supply line hosebed of 60 inches.
