FIRE FIGHTING EQUIPMENT

The whole F.F. equipment, consisting of the bodywork and the hydraulic system are fixed on a
sub-frame mounted on the chassis frame that allows to reduce the vibrations from the rough
terrain.
This sub-frame is connected to the chassis members by elastic silent-block joints.
This system realised by IVECO MAGIRUS assures the perfect stability of the entire
superstructure and therefore by this technical configuration the system avoid any transmission
and influence of transversal/longitudinal forces or oscillations coming from the chassis members
torsion directly to the body, tanks and pump, coming during operation on off-road conditions.
By utilising this system the bodywork, the tank and the pump unit remain constantly parallel to
the ground independently of the transversal and longitudinal movements of the chassiss frame
and wheels position.

BODYWORK
Construction:

Superstructure made in ALU-FIRE SYSTEM, with body frame made

completely by high quality aluminium extrusion profiles connected with
special joints with screw and without any welding, and properly panelled by
light alloy sheets.
By this new conception of manufacturing process IVECO MAGIRUS get a
bodywork entirely made of aluminium, whose main advantages are:

completely corrosion proof body and therefore longer lasting;

lighter weight and therefore bigger reserve of usable carrying capacity;

flexibility in setting up the internal lockers partitions;

easiness of repair in case of eventual accidents.

Storage lockers:

The Single Cab vehicle can be provided with 6 (six) storage lockers

Nr. 2 side high lockers (one on each side of the vehicle) located behind
the cabin, closed by anodised light alloy roller shutters with wide handle
grip and internal automatic illumination with pilot lamp in the drivers
cabin.
NOTE: These front storage lockers can be provided only when the vehicle
is manufactured with the standard Single Cabin.
In case of wide double cab (1+5 seats) these high locker are not available.

Nr. 4 side lower lockers (two on each side of the vehicle), closed by
roller shutters made in light alloy.

TURNTABLE LADDER
The vehicle is provided with and hydraulic ladder system with vertical outreach of 53,5m
measured from rescue cage bottom line, and working height of 55m.
The ladder is made by six (6) sections suitable to the ladder outreach.
Ladder installed on chassis by means of turntable having unlimited 360 rotation possibility in
either direction.
Power generated by a hydraulic pump driven by PTO on chassis engine.
Ladder elevation & depression movements are driven by two hydraulic cylinders.
Elevation, depression, vertical & horizontal simultaneous movements are possible at the same
time without mutual interference.
Ladder angle range: downward inclination to 10 and elevation up to +75.

Two Control Panels with colour displays are fitted.

One at Main operator control stand and one at Recue Cage: both control colour display panels are
fully equipped with elevation, depression and rotation controls, plus safe operation status
indicator on ladder control panel in both English & Arabic languages.
Safety features cut out the system automatically in case of malfunction, overload or maximum
reach in addition to safety features for personnel plus emergency interruption feature of ladder
movements (dead man pedal).
Control of vehicle engine on/off is possible from main control panel, from cage panel and from
drivers cab.
Control panel made of special material resisting corrosion, direct water effect & adverse weather
conditions; this also apply on controls, indicators and gauges.
Ladder control display (TFT multicolour type) provided indicating safe ladder section
movement during elevation & lowering in addition to angle indicator side panel.
Provision consisting in a flexible plastic cover is provided to protect the control panel when
ladder is not in use.

LADDER ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL DATA

Extension and retraction of the ladder is carried out by means of two extension and two retraction
cables which are wound on a cable winch. An hydraulic motor drives the winch.
The ladder is provided with the new Magirus lateral adjustment system which is capable of
keeping automatically levelled the turntable and the main control stand up to 8,5 slope, even
during the rotation of the ladder.
All ladder oscillations are stabilised or actively damped by means of the new CS computer
system (CS Computer Stabilised).
Ladder movement is automatically switched off at the operation limit and a visual indication
appears on the operating panel diagram.
If there are malfunctions of safety devices, the ladder remains fully capable of operation but is
automatically returned to the maximum area of operation that remains possible.

STABILIZATION SYSTEM
On the Iveco Magirus Turntable Ladders a fully automatic stabilization system, operated by means
of Qty 4 side outriggers quadric-cross construction, hydraulically driven for levelling when
operating the ladder section, diagonal shape. Separate control of each outrigger is possible.
Automatic levelling system when operating the ladder.
Light reflective finishing. Warning yellow lights.
Two dedicated control panels at rear of body (one on right and one on left).
Providing a level indication system reading of 8,5 degrees of vertical line.

JACKING SYSTEM ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL DATA

The exceptional stability of the vehicle is attained by rear axle suspension locking and the
hydraulically operated Vario CS Jacking System with computer stabilized technology. All jacks
can be extended individually and infinitely from approx. 2.5m up to 5.2m. The projection values
are continuously adapted and processed by the computer who always calculate the projection
range. The working area range of the turntable ladder therefore increases continuously with every
centimetre of jacking width.
ADVANTAGES OF THIS SYSTEM:
- Projection of jacks individually operated; and infinitely adjustable control;
- Vehicle tyres are always touching the ground. So the parking brake can be still used for
avoiding any possibility of sliding;
- The lower jacking design (diagonal shape) allow easy stepping over and the use of the ladder in
narrow streets with parked vehicles.
