Lesson 1/Learning Event 2
FIGURE 3. 50-GPM PUMP.
The illustrations shown are typical of the pump models. The throttle control is present on the MS
1A08-3 engine, but not on the MS 1A08-1 engine. Other components and controls may differ
slightly, but they will be in the same location and have an appearance similar to the components
illustrated here.
Hoses
The hoses used with the 50-GPM Pump are obtained as a separate item. The operation for which
the pump is used will determine the type hose that is used. A 1 1/2-inch non-collapsible hose is
the type needed in decontamination operations.
