Comments:
An impressive rig. The red Dump Tank [Porta-Tank] is stowed, folded up, on the right-hand side. And a Monitor is peeping out, from atop the cross-lay hose-bed, behind the cab. From the Conversion Tables: 1, 000 US GPM pump puts out 3, 785 litres of water per minute. Tank capacity of 3500 US Gallons is 13, 249 litres of water - that would be 13.25 Metric Tonnes weight of water alone. Regards, Pat_R-B
