Section 5: Using Accessories

Firesock

When  using  water,  the  Firesock  breaks  down  water  droplets,
thereby  increasing  the  exposed  surface  area.   This allows  for
improved  coverage  and  increased  drop  accuracy  as  well  as
wider and longer drop patterns

When using foam, the Firesock increases the aeration of the
foam.

To install the Firesock, attach the quick connect links onto the
bottom chain.

When finished using it, make sure to:

•

Inspect the Firesock for damage and make repairs.

•

Clean the Firesock using fresh water.

•

Store the Firesock, attached to the Bambi Bucket,
ensuring both are dry.
