Introduction
The BFB Search and Rescue trailer will be used to transport the Ranger as
well as brush fire equipment and our high angle rope rescue gear.
In addition, the trailer can be used as a command vehicle and or rehab station
It’s primary mover is Service 177 since it also provides the generator power to
the trailer

Emergency calls
When responding to an emergency call, open the box located at the front
of the trailer and turn on the emergency flashers.
Make sure all four corners are working before leaving the station.

DrivingThe trailer itself is 22.5 feet long and the service is nearly the same length. Make sure you leave enough room for the entire length of both units when
turning.
The trailer follows (tracks) the service very well and for the driver, the trailer
is slightly wider than the service so roughly 4 inches of each side of the
trailer is visible while towing in a straight line.
The trailer has an extended tongue to allow for tighter corners.
Never back the trailer up without someone watching.

Set up at sceneOpen the floor hatch and feed the wire
through and connect to one of the rear outlets on the Service 177.
Start the generator.
Turn on the circuit breaker in the Service 177 for the rear lights. It’s the
one furthest in.
If you don’t need the scene lights on the Service, you can turn each one off
individually.
The rear scene lights on the Service are de-mountable for additional lighting
flexibility.

Generator Power
The generator powers the fluorescent lighting inside the trailer, the side
halogen lights as well as a 110 outlet inside the trailer.
The generator can power all four scene lights on the service, as well as all of
the lights in the trailer. It’s best to limit the draw on the trailer by using only
what you need.

Locks
There are three door latches that are all keyed alike on the trailer. One key
opens all three.
The keys are on the Service key ring.
The smaller black lock on the side people door is only used as an
additional latch. We won’t be locking that because it’s keyed differently.
![Page 10: Search and Rescue Trailer Bungay Fire Brigade 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649c9b5503460f94958ae6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Rear door
Unlock and unlatch the rear latches and gently pull the door down from
the top. It’s spring assisted so not a lot of effort is needed.
When fully open, flip out the additional plywood ramp.
Important!!!When driving the Ranger into the
trailer, don’t enter the trailer fast or in a jerky manner. The top of the Ranger is approx 4 inches from the top of the
trailer door. It will fit, but a jerky entrance may cause damage

Interior lighting
The interior lighting powered off the generator and is controlled by the
following switches.
1. Fluorescent roof lighting
2. Outside scene Halogen lights are controlled by individual switches directly under the housing
1.2.

Canopy
The canopy on the side of the trailer is tricky to use. Make sure someone
shows you the right way to open and close it.
![Page 13: Search and Rescue Trailer Bungay Fire Brigade 2013](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062320/56649c9b5503460f94958ae6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Command Center
The people door has a whiteboard attached to it for command and
planning purposes.
There is a dry erase marker set behind the drivers door in Service 177

Make sure the top of the door doesn’t get caught on the canopy.
Use caution opening and closing the door when the canopy is open
