The transmission shall be able to shift from first through fifth gear without operator intervention. The chassis shall be 
geared for the top speed in 5th gear. 
 
AUTOMATIC NEUTRAL 
 
The transmission shall be provided with circuitry to provide automatic neutral. Setting the parking brake commands the 
transmission to neutral when the park brake is applied, regardless of drive range requested on the shift selector. Requires 
re-selecting drive range to shift out of neutral. 
 
After the transmission has been activated with the automatic neutral feature the shift lever must be returned to neutral and 
back to drive for midship pump operations. 
 
REMOTE FLUID LEVEL SENSING 
 
The chassis shall be equipped with an electronic low fluid level indicator system for the engine oil, transmission oil, engine 
coolant and power steering fluid as part of the instrumentation package. This system eliminates the need for daily checking 
of fluid levels with manual dipsticks. 
 
Coolant over temperature sensors are only capable of sensing excessive coolant temperature caused by clogged radiators, 
malfunctioning thermostats, failed water pumps or any other “circulation” problem. Upon loss of coolant, however, these 
temperature sensors must try to respond to hot air which, being a poor thermal conductor, results in signals that arrive only 
after the engine is severely damaged. 
 
In a like manner, under leaking oil conditions low oil pressure signals are not obtained until the oil pump is starved for oil. 
Since the oil pump draws liquid from the very bottom of the crankcase pan, these signals arrive only after virtually all oil 
has been lost. Again, the damage has already occurred. 
 
The liquid level sensor provides an early warning that fluid is being lost and allows corrective action to be taken before 
damage can occur. By using a sensor to turn on an indicator light, the low fluid level condition is communicated immediately 
to the operator. 
 
ENGINE COOLANT 
 
The coolant level sensor is located in the upper radiator reservoir. The corresponding LED indicator light is included in the 
display module. 
 
ENGINE OIL 
 
The engine oil sensor is in the engine oil sump. It monitors the oil level at approximately the 50% level. The corresponding 
LED indicator light is located to the right of the instrument panel on the doghouse in clear view of the driver. 
 
POWER STEERING FLUID 
 
The power steering fluid sensor is located in the power steering fluid reservoir at the same level as the “Add” indicator on 
the dip stick. The corresponding LED indicator light is located to the right of the instrument panel on the doghouse in clear 
view of the driver. 
 
FUNCTION 
 
The LED indicator lights will illuminate when the ignition is placed in the ON position as a test to insure that the warning 
circuits are working. They will go out when the starter button is pressed if normal fluid levels are detected. One or more of

Schedule A:  HME Pumper Specifications 
23925-0000 
02/02/22 
14 
 
 
 
the lights staying on indicates a low fluid level in the corresponding system(s). Any time the engine is ON and a low fluid 
level is detected, the appropriate light will illuminate. The sensor output will reset when the ignition is turned off. 
 
TRANSMISSION OIL 
 
The transmission oil sensor is in the transmission oil sump. The fluid level indicator is integrated into the shift selector. 
Accessing the fluid level status is dependent upon the style of shift selector provided. 
 
The transmission fluid level status is accessed through the “mode” function of the shift selector controls. First, park the 
vehicle on a level surface, shift to N (Neutral), and apply the parking brake. If equipped with a pushbutton shift selector, 
simultaneously press the Up and Down arrow buttons. If equipped with a lever shift selector, press the display mode button 
one time. A code will be displayed on the shift controls indicating that the oil level is HI, LO or OK. If the level is HI or LO, 
the display will also indicate the number of quarts of oil necessary to be added or removed to bring the oil level into the OK 
range. It may also display an error code that explains why fluid level information is not available. The fluid level check may 
be delayed until the following conditions are met: 
• 
The fluid temperature is above 60°C (140°F) and below 104°C (220°F). 
• 
The transmission is in N (Neutral). 
• 
The engine is at idle. 
• 
The transmission output shaft is stopped. 
• 
The vehicle has been stationary for approximately two minutes to allow the fluid to settle. 
See the Care and Maintenance section of the transmission Owner’s Manual for a more detailed description of the fluid 
check procedure along with a complete list of error codes.

LIMITED WARRANTY 
 
Thank you for purchasing our products! 
 
This book specifies the limited warranty offered by HME, Inc. (“HME”) for HME products. Please note that the 
applicable limited warranty depends on what product you, the original purchaser, bought. As such, not all terms 
contained in this book will be applicable to you. Please review the coverage(s) appropriate for your  HME product 
before proceeding through the rest of this book. 
 
This book is divided as follows: 
Section A, General Provisions 
Section B, Limited Warranties 
 
Section C, Exclusions 
 
Section D, Additional Provisions Applicable to All Products. 
 
 
HME’s limited warranty set forth in this book will be referred to collectively as this “Limited Warranty” or “HME’s 
Limited Warranty”. In this Limited Warranty, the term “you” and “Customer” will refer to the original 
purchaser/owner of the HME products and not to any subsequent purchaser or owner. 
 
A. 
GENERAL PROVISIONS   
 
This Section A constitutes part of the Limited Warranty for all HME products. 
 
Who and What HME’s Limited Warranty Covers 
 
HME’s Limited Warranty only covers you, the original purchaser/owner of new HME product(s). Subsequent 
owners or purchasers are not covered by this Limited Warranty. 
 
Subject to the limitations and exclusions set forth in this Section A as well as Sections B, C, and D below, HME’s 
Limited Warranty generally covers repair, refinish, or replacement, at the sole option of HME, of your new HME 
cab, chassis, apparatus, aerial or any components thereof (hereinafter “Covered Part(s)”) in which

Schedule A:  HME Pumper Specifications 
23925-0000 
02/02/22 
75 
 
 
 
a defect in materials or workmanship appears during normal use, maintenance or service within the Warranty 
Period (as “Warranty Period” is defined in each part of this Limited Warranty). 
 
If HME determines there is warranty coverage for a Covered Part, HME shall, at its sole option, repair, refinish, 
or replace (or have repaired or refinished), at HME’s factory, by HME’s representative at the location of the 
Covered Part, or at HME’s authorized service facility (whichever location HME designates), any Covered Part 
not otherwise excluded from HME’s Limited Warranty if the Covered Part proves, in HME’s opinion, to be 
defective and if all other terms of this Limited Warranty are complied with. The repair, refinish, or replacement 
of a Covered Part does not extend the life of this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty is valid only in the 
United States and Canada. 
 
What This Limited Warranty DOES NOT Cover 
 
This Limited Warranty is limited by the limitations and exclusions in this Section A and is also limited by the 
limitations and exclusions set forth in Sections B, C, and D below. The limitations and exclusions set forth in the 
most specific Section of this Limited Warranty shall supersede the warranty provisions in all other Sections. For 
example, if there is a potential paint defect, then subject to the other limitations and exclusions  in this Limited 
Warranty, the paint limited warranty would apply in Section B(3) below rather than the general warranty in 
Section B(1) below. 
 
No Replacement or Repurchase of Fire Apparatus. IF HME DETERMINES THERE IS WARRANTY 
COVERAGE, REPAIR, REFINISH, OR REPLACEMENT OF COVERED PARTS BY HME IS THE EXCLUSIVE 
REMEDY UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY. HME WILL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES REPLACE
