Mobile Foam Unit Version 50-150 7 of 36
2.2 Intended use of the Machine
The MFU (mobile foam unit) is an autarkic high performance extinguishing system for fighting
fires of class
A (solids) and B (liquids). It is not suitable to extinguish fires of class D (metal)
or F (fat/grease). Sucking water from external sources is intended solely for firefighting and
refilling of the water tank. Supply the water inlet with cold, clean and pressure-free water (see
chapter 6.1
– Operation conditions). Other liquids must not be used.
For any consequences
resulting from other than the intended use, the user is solely responsible and liable.
2.3 Operating range and storage
The temperature range of supplied water is +5 °C to +45 °C. The MFU should be stored only
in horizontal position. The storage place must be free of frost and dust. For longer periods,
we recommend to drain fuel and water and to cover the MFU.
2.4 Disposal
The entire package of the MFU consists of recyclable materials. Qualified personnel should
properly carry out the disposal of used parts and consumables (waste oil, foam agent,
batteries, etc.). Please observe national provisions with regard to environmental protection.
2.5 Professional repair and maintenance
Repairs of high-pressure components (pump, safety valve, hoses and pipes), the gasoline
engine or the electrical system may be performed by qualified persons only.
All spare parts for high-pressure applications must have the appropriate accreditation. Use
only approved original spare parts for pump and engine.
For damage caused by improper and/or negligent operation, maintenance or repair, the
company
HNE Technologie AG accepts no liability or claims for damages.
2.6 Residual hazards and protective measures

When using the MFU for firefighting, always wear adequate protective clothing against
heat, fire, water, falling debris and chemicals.

Always keep the highest possible safety distance to the fire.

Never target the compact water jet at persons or living animals. Breathing under a layer
of foam is impossible.

When set to full flow, a significant blowback occurs at the turbo gun. Take a firm stand
and hold the gun always with both hands.

Relieve the remaining pressure from the system after use by actuating the turbo gun.

Do not use or store the MFU in explosion/fire hazardous areas

Secure the MFU against unauthorized starting by removing the ignition key
Look for further storage information in the manual of the engine
manufacturer.
