Short 3.3 metre wheelbase for better maneuverability. Nice photo to illustrate the low midships storage of the “featherweight” portable pump. While not a universal feature, this PP was standard in many county brigades. The most popular brand was rated at 1100 LPM @ 7AT with a three meter lift. The main PTO pump was double that.
