Quick Overview

This system provides a method for rapidly bundling, carrying, and deploying fire attack lines or utility ropes. Its primary advantage is the seatbelt buckle release, which allows for instant, one-handed operation by a gloved firefighter at the point of attack.

Field Application Steps

Bundle hose (up to 150 ft of 1¾ inch) and center it on the system's semi-rigid spine.
Encircle the bundle with the three straps and secure each seatbelt buckle, confirming an audible and physical 'click' for a positive lock.
Transport the bundle using the padded shoulder sling, protecting buckles from accidental contact.
At the drop point, depress the three red buckle buttons to instantly release the entire hose load.
Immediately clear the strap system away from the hose to prevent entanglement during charging and advancement.
Before and after each use, inspect all webbing for damage and confirm proper buckle function.
