1-11. WATER DISTRIBUTOR SYSTEM
The components of the water distribution system are described briefly below. Each of these will be described in greater
detail in Chapter 2 - Operating Instructions.
a. Engine. The engine which powers the pump is mounted on back of semitrailer. It receives its fuel from a fuel
tank mounted between the frame members. Control of engine is by one of two control panels described below.
b. Pump. The pump is coupled directly to the engine. The purpose of the pump is to pump water out of or into the
tank.
c. Valves. There are three manually operated valves and two solenoid-actuated valves that control the flow of
water via the spray control valves for all operations.
d. Control Panels. Two control panels are provided to control starting and stopping the engine, adjusting engine
speed, and controlling the flow of water through the two spray nozzles. The rear control panel is permanently mounted in
the cabinet on the right rear fender of the trailer. The remote control panel is connected by a long cable for controlling
water distribution functions from the cab of the towing vehicle.
