GIVING FIREFIGHTERS
THE TOOL THEY DESERVE

The Gradall FA System, integrated with established firefighting vehicles, is uniquely designed to enable firefighters to attack blazes more efficiently and safely.

Using the 5th Man fire head, the FA System quickly and productively vents roofs and sidewalls of burning structures, reaching into the heart of hazardous fires while reducing unnecessary personnel risks.

The boom’s 220-degree tilt capability, along with the strength of the piercing nozzle, can ventilate through solids such as brick and concrete structures.

FA AT WORK

FIRE VENTILATION

The piercing nozzle provides danger-free ventilation and creates rapid entry channels into structures, maximizing firefighter safety while extinguishing fires faster to minimize environmental damage.

The boom's 220-degree tilt capability, along with the strength of the piercing nozzle, can ventilate through solids such as brick and concrete structures.
FOAM APPLICATION

With 50 individual nozzle ports, the piercing head can efficiently apply a wide curtain of foam to attack chemical fires. Class A and B foams are available.
FIRE SUPPRESSION

A Gradall exclusive, the U.S. patented 5th Man Fire Suppression Apparatus can deliver up to 1,500 gallons per minute (5,600 l/min) at 120 psi.

A 50-foot (15 m) wide broken spray water curtain extinguishes fires upon contact.
CONTROLLED DEMOLITION

A pounding action, created by the boom and 5th Man fire head, enables a controlled approach to demolish structures that have been heavily damaged by fire.

The boom and 5th Man fire head are designed with the ability to attack most types of structures including concrete block.
LIFTING CAPABILITY

The telescoping boom, when combined with an optional lifting eye, has a crane-type ability to remove obstructive debris weighing up to 6,100 pounds (2,767 kg). Or, a basket can be affixed to evacuate trapped people.
