It carries a complete set of Homlatro Rescue Tools including spreaders, cutters and three different sized rams. The onboard Homlatro electrial hydraulic power plant supplies two 100 ft. long hydraulic reels. The cutters and spreaders are preattached to the 100 ft. hydraulic lines for rapid deployment. There is also a gasoline powered portable hydraulic power supply and portable reels used when the 100 ft. lines do not reach or when is its necessary to operate more than two tools at a time. Additional rescue equipment includes complete sets of high and low-pressure air bags, a large assortment of hand and power tools, cribbing, ventilation equipment, stokes basket, and thermal imager.
