Hurst Manual suggested application to TNT 6. The force of escaping hydraulic fluid could cause serious injury. Leaking hose: Never attempt to grasp a leaking hose under pressure with your hands. Vehicle hazards: Use caution in cutting, crushing, or spreading as to avoid hazards in vehicle construction such as: air bag controllers and components, seat belt pre-tensioners, and onboard computers.ġ9 Potential Hazards: 5. CUTTING THESE AND SIMILAR OBJECTS RISKS INJURY TO THE OPERATOR AND BYSTANDERS FROM PROJECTILE PIECES. shock absorbers, springs, pressurized cylinders).
Under pressure: Never cut objects under tension or pressure (ex. Under pressure: Never disconnect the hoses, couplers, fittings, etc. Rescuer positioning: Do not position yourself between the rescue tool and an object to be worked on. Pumps should only be stored in a horizontal position.ġ7 Potential Hazards: 1. Store your tools securely loose tools can cause serious injury or property damage. (Per BEARS, when seals are not under constant pressure, they will last longer.) 3. Do not store your TNT tools in the fully open, or fully closed position. Do not store your TNT tools under pressure. Run Pump: Operate the pump and check for proper tool operation also observe for leaks.ġ6 Storage guidelines: 1. Couplers and Couples: Check for operation and cleanliness. Fittings, Bolts, Screws: Check all fittings, bolts, and screws to ensure they are tight. Crimp fittings: Check to make sure the crimp fitting is still firmly attached to the hose assembly. Dead-man control valve: Check for smooth operation. Hoses: Check for punctures, kinking, or leakage. Inspection AFTER each use: Blades: Check for any surface cracks or deformities. Inspection BEFORE each use: Prior to and after each use, the tools, hoses, and connections should be cleaned and inspected for damage.ġ5 2. We may receive these by the RNC.ġ4 Inspection, storage and potential hazards to avoid while using the forcible entry tools. We are told these TNT cutters can cut through Nader bolts. However, per BEARS, the CFD is scheduled to receive new TNT-brand cutters similar to the CSC-40 cutter shown here to the left, except our TNT cutters will have one hydraulic line instead of two. #8: (-) EXTRA STEP: When operating TNT you must remember the extra step of pulling open the open air vent to allow air to move freely in and out of the pump reservoir.ġ3 #9: (-) NO CUTTING TOOL: TNT tool does not currently allow for attaching/detaching of a cutting tool (some CFD units have a Rabbit tool that includes the optional cutting tool).
Hurst tool is about 22 lbs.).ġ2 #7: (-) HEAVIER (Spreader): TNT cylinder (spreader) itself weighs 2 lbs. #6: (+) LIGHTER: TNT Pump/Cylinder combination unit together weights 2 lbs. T N T H U R S TĨ #3: (+) SWIVEL: TNT cylinder hose has a swivel fitting which allows for 360-degree movement to keep the hose out of the way (Hurst cylinder hose does not swivel).ĩ #4: (+) PUSH-STYLE SPREADER: TNT cylinder (spreader) has heavy-duty plates ( push pads ) with teeth added to both ends of the tool.ġ0 #4: (+) PUSH-STYLE SPREADER: TNT cylinder (spreader) has heavy-duty plates ( push pads ) with teeth added to both ends of the tool.ġ1 #5: (+) VEHICLES: TNT can be used on vehicles (per TNT manual note below hazards to avoid). Hurst 6-feet).ħ #2: (+) SPREAD: TNT Cylinder increases spread by 1 ¾ inches (TNT tool is 5 ¼-inches vs. (Example: Tower 1)Ħ #1:(+) HOSE REACH: TNT increases hose reach by 4-feet (TNT 10-feet vs.
