Standard supply is with 2 nos. inlets, 63 mm (2.1/ 2″) NH. Stainless steel foldable legs are provided with spikes for sturdy ground base, easy mobility and usage. These spikes are
essential for safe operation of the monitor and must be in contact with the ground at all times. Set the monitor on an even surface so that all spikes contact the ground. If the spikes are found damaged, contact manufacturer before use. It can be easily deployed and operated by a single firefighter. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Always unfold all the legs for proper mounting. In the unfolded position the legs provide a stable base for operation of the monitor. Lack of stability can cause an out of control monitor resulting in injury or death. Do not operate as a portable monitor with either one or both legs in the folded position. For stable operation the spikes must maintain in contact with the ground. User
needs to ensure that the contact is firm and secure. Do not place the monitor on top of debris, or uneven terrain that would keep any of the spikes from contacting the ground.
An out of control monitor can cause injury or death. Do not attempt to move the monitor with water flowing. Low nozzle elevation angles can cause portable monitors to slide or lift off the ground which can result in injury or death.
