Per ANSI standard Z , the defi nitions of the four signal words are as follows: DANGER DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. CAUTION NOTICE 1.1 SAFETY DANGER indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. NOTICE is used to address practices not related to personal injury. An inadequate supply of nozzle pressure and/or flow will cause an ineffective stream and can result in injury, death or loss of property. See flow charts in Section 5.0 or call for assistance. Failure to restrain nozzle reaction can cause firefighter injury from loss of footing and/or stream protection. Nozzle reaction will vary as supply conditions change: such as opening or closing other nozzles, hose line kinks, changes in pump settings, etc. Changes in spray pattern or flushing will also affect nozzle reaction. The nozzle operator must always be positioned to restrain the nozzle reaction in the event of those changes. Injury from whipping can occur. If nozzle gets out of control or away from operator, retreat from nozzle immediately. Do not attempt to regain control of nozzle while flowing water. Nozzle reaction will vary as supply conditions change: such as opening or closing other nozzles, hose line kinks, changes in pump settings, etc. Changes in spray pattern or flushing will also affect nozzle reaction. The nozzle operator must always be prepared in the event of those changes. Failure to restrain nozzle reaction can cause firefighter injury from loss of footing and/ or stream protection. If nozzle gets out of control or away from operator, retreat from nozzle immediately. Do not attempt to regain control of nozzle while flowing water. Injury from whipping can occur. Large amounts or pieces of debris may be unflushable and can reduce the flow of the nozzle resulting in an ineffective flow. In the event of a blockage, it may be necessary to retreat to a safe area, uncouple nozzle and remove debris.

3 CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION Water is a conductor of electricity. Application of water solutions on high voltage equipment can cause injury or death by electrocution. The amount of current that may be carried back to the nozzle will depend on the following factors: 1 Voltage of the line or equipment Distance from the nozzle to the line or equipment Size of the stream Whether the stream is solid or broken Purity of the water 1 Electrostatic Hazards of Foam Blanketing Operations by Peter Howels. Industrial Fire Safety July/August 13 The Fire Fighter and Electrical Equipment, The University of Michigan Extension Service, Fourth Printing 183. Page 47. Fire streams are capable of injury and damage. Do not direct water stream to cause injury or damage to persons or property. Do not couple aluminum to brass. Dissimilar metals coupled together can cause galvanic corrosion that can result in inability to unscrew threads or complete loss of thread engagement. The nozzle may become damaged if allowed to freeze while containing water. Always drain after use to avoid damage and possible loss of use. Nozzle must be mated to a hose line with matched threads. Mismatched or damaged threads may cause nozzle to leak or uncouple from hose under pressure and could cause injury..0 GENERAL INFORMATION The Task Force Tips Twister and Bubblecup nozzles are hand-held nozzles with clean far reaching straight stream. They are adjustable from straight stream to a wide fog pattern. Their rugged construction is compatible with the use of fresh water as well as fi re fi ghting foam solutions. The nozzles are constructed of hard anodizes aluminum, stainless steel, rubber and engineering grade polymers. A summary of each nozzle s characteristics is shown in the tables below. This equipment is intended for use by trained personnel for firefighting. Their use for other purposes may involve hazards not addressed by this manual. Seek appropriate guidance and training to reduce risk of injury..1 VARIOUS MODELS SERIES MODEL STANDARD COUPLING SIZE GALLONAGE SETTINGS (GPM AT 100 PSI) C TWISTER 3/4 GHT 10, 4 D TWISTER or BUBBLECUP 1 NH 10, 4 D TWISTER or BUBBLECUP 1 NH 10, 40 F TWISTER or BUBBLECUP 1-1/ NH 0, 0 F TWISTER 1-1/ NH 0, 5 F BUBBLECUP 1-1/ NH 5 Single Gallonage Only The C series Twister is available in a tip-only nozzle confi guration.

COLOR CODED VALVE HANDLE AND PISTOL GRIP The TFT Twister and BubbleCup with lever type valve handles are supplied with black valve handle covers and pistol grips. The handle covers and pistol grips are available from TFT in various colors for those departments wishing to color code the nozzle to the discharge controls. A colored handle cover set will be sent upon receipt of the warranty card by TFT. Your department s name can also be engraved on the covers (see warranty card for more information). Handle covers are replaceable by removing the four screws that hold the handle covers in place. Use a 3/3 allen wrench when replacing screws. Pistol grip is replaceable by following TFT instruction sheet LTT-108. For standardization NFPA 101 (A-4-.3) recommends the following color code scheme: Preconnect #1 or Bumper Jump Line Preconnect or discharge # Preconnect or discharge #3 Preconnect or discharge #4 Preconnect or discharge #5 Preconnect or discharge # Preconnect or discharge #7 Foam Lines Orange Red Yellow White Blue Black Green Red w/ White border (Red/White) Other Colors Available: Gray Pink Purple Tan.3 MECHANICAL SPECIFICATIONS Maximum nozzle inlet pressure with valve shutoff* Twister 300 psi BubbleCup 300 psi 0 bar 0 bar Operating temperature range of fl uid 33 to 10º F 1 to 50º C Storage temperature range -40 to 150º F -40 to 5º C Materials used Aluminum 000 series hard anodized MIL85 class 3 type, stainless steel 300 series, nylon -, nitrile rubber *Consult Factory for higher pressure applications 3.0 NOZZLE CONTROLS 3.1 FLOW CONTROL LEVER TYPE FLOW CONTROL On models that use a lever type valve handle, the nozzle is shut off when the handle is fully forward. The ball valve allow the nozzle operator to regulate the fl ow of the nozzle depending on the need or what can be safely and effectively handled. TFT recommends the use of a pistol grip for easier handling. For additional stress reduction, a hose rope or strap may also be used. This permits more effective use and ease of advancement, while minimizing strain and fatigue TIP ONLY NOZZLES Tip only nozzles have NO shut off valve contained within the nozzle and MUST be used with a separate ball valve attached to the nozzle. 4

5 FS FS 3.1. BALL SHUTOFF Models with a ball valve are shut off when the valve handle is fully forward. Pulling back on the handle opens the valve. Open valve slowly to avoid sudden changes in nozzle reaction. Note: In partially-open positions a ball valve will cause turbulence and adversely affect stream quality. Close valve slowly to prevent water hammer. 3. PATTERN AND FLUSH CONTROL 3..1 PATTERN CONTROL TFT s Twister and BubbleCup Nozzles have full pattern control from straight stream to wide fog. Turning the STREAM SHAPER clockwise (as seen from the operating position behind the nozzle) moves the SHAPER to the straight stream position. Turning the SHAPER counterclockwise will result in an increasingly wider pattern. Since the stream trim point varies with the fl ow, the stream should be trimmed after changing the fl ow to obtain the straightest and farthest reaching stream. To properly trim a stream, fi rst open the pattern to a narrow fog. Then close the stream to parallel to give maximum reach. NOTE: Turning the shaper further forward will cause stream crossover and reduce the effective reach of the nozzle. The nozzle reaction is greatest when the shaper is in the straight stream position. The nozzle operator must be prepared for a change in reaction as the pattern is changed. Low & High / Straight Stream Low & High / Medium Fog High /Wide Fog FIGURE CHANGING PATTERN AND FLOW SETTINGS Large amounts of debris can reduce the flow of the nozzle resulting in an ineffective flow. In the event of a blockage it may be necessary to retreat to a safe area, uncouple nozzle and remove debris. 4.0 BUBBLECUP NOZZLES The Bubble Cup nozzle is capable of producing aspirated foam as well as a conventional straight stream and wide protective fog pattern. The Bubble Cup functions just like the Twister nozzle (see section 3.0) when the gray sleeve is in the retracted position as in fi gure 3A. To use the aspirating feature of the Bubble Cup, the nozzle operator need only slide the gray sleeve portion of the nozzle forward. When the sleeve is in the fully-extended position, a white line on the shaper will be visible at the base of the gray sleeve as in fi gure 3B. Rotation of the shaper when the sleeve is extended will provide the nozzle operator control of reach and aspiration. If an immediate wide protective fog pattern is needed, the sleeve can be retracted instantly to its regular position.

9 .0 USE WITH SALT WATER Use with salt water is permissible provided nozzle is thoroughly cleaned with fresh water after each use. The service life of the nozzle may be shortened due to the effects of corrosion and is not covered under warranty. 7.0 FOAMJET MX WITH TWISTER NOZZLE To increase the expansion ratio Task Force Tips Foamjet MX (model FJ-MX-D) may be used with the Twister nozzle. This multi-expansion foam tube attaches and detaches quickly from the nozzle. Note: As expansion ratio is increased, the reach of the stream will be decreased due to the greater amount of bubbles in the stream and their inability to penetrate the air. Generally, the reach with foam is approximately 10 % less than with water only. Actual results will vary based on brand of foam, hardness of water, temperature, etc. SERIAL # KKF-XXXXXX PATENT PENDING F50D Inse MULTI-EXPANSION FOAM ASPIRATING ATTACHMENT with TWISTER 1 INCH SERIES FIG 4 - FJ-MX-D Shown on Twister Nozzle For Class B fires, lack of foam or interruption in the foam stream can cause a break in the foam blanket and greatly increase the risk of injury or death. Assure that: Application rate is sufficient (see NFPA 11 or foam manufacturer s recommendations). Enough concentrate is on hand to complete task (see NFPA for minimum duration time requirements). Foam logistics have been carefully planned. Allow for such things as: Storage of foam in a location not exposed to the hazard it protects. Personnel, equipment and technique to deliver foam at a rapid enough rate. Removal of empty foam containers. Keeping clear path to deliver foam as hoses, other equipment and vehicles are deployed. Improper use of foam can result in injury or damage to the environment. Follow foam manufacturer s instructions and fire service training to avoid: Using wrong type of foam on a fire, i.e. Class A foam on a Class B fire. Plunging foam into pools of burning liquid fuels. Causing environmental damage. Directing stream at personnel. There is a wide variety of foam concentrates. Each user is responsible for verifying that any foam concentrate chosen to be used with this unit has been tested to assure that the foam obtained is suitable for the purpose intended. 8.0 FIREGROUND USE OF TWISTER AND BUBBLE CUP NOZZLES IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INDIVIDUAL FIRE DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY TO DETERMINE PHYSICAL CAPABILITIES AND SUITABILITY FOR AN INDIVIDUAL S USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT. Many factors contribute to the extinguishment of a fi re. Among the most important is delivering water at a fl ow rate suffi cient to absorb heat faster than is being generated. The fl ow rate depends largely on the pump discharge pressure and hose friction loss. The pump discharge pressure may be found by use of the chart on the last page. It can also be calculated using a hydraulic equation such as: PDP = NP + FL + DL + EL For additional information on calculating specifi c hose layouts, consult an appropriate fi re service training manual, A Guide to Automatic Nozzles, PDP = Pump discharge pressure in PSI or call TFT s Hydraulics Hotline at NP = Nozzle pressure in PSI FL = Hose friction loss in PSI DL = Device loss in PSI EL = Elevation loss in PSI

10 .0 FIELD INSPECTION Twister and Bubble Cup are designed and manufactured to be damage resistant and require minimal maintenance. However, as the primary fi refi ghting tool upon which your life depends, it should be treated accordingly. Before each use nozzle must be inspected for proper operation and function according to inspection checklist in section 10.0 of this document. Any nozzle that fails inspection is dangerous to use and must be repaired before using. Performance tests shall be conducted on the Twister and Bubble Cup nozzle after a repair, or anytime a problem is reported to verify operation in accordance with Task Force Tips test procedures. Consult factory for the procedure that corresponds to the model and serial number of the nozzle. Any equipment which fails the related test criteria should be removed from service immediately. Troubleshooting guides are available with each test procedure or equipment can be returned to the factory for service and testing. Factory service is available with repair time seldom exceeding one day in our facility. Factory-serviced nozzles are repaired by experienced technicians to original specifi cations, fully wet tested, and promptly returned. Repair charges for non-warranty items are minimal. Any returns should include a note as to the nature of the problem and whom to reach in case of questions. Repair parts and service procedures are available for those wishing to perform their own repairs. Task Force Tips assumes no liability for damage to equipment or injury to personnel that is a result of user service. SPECIAL CONFIGURATIONS; If nozzles are made according to the special marking or performance requirements of the fi re department then the operating characteristics may differ from the published data in this manual. Repair parts specifi c to each serial number may differ from those shown in the service procedure. The required parts for each serial number are available on-line by entering the with numbers corresponding to the serial number engraved on the product. Consult TFT for laser engraved handle covers, special labeling, logos, and special laser engraving on the nozzle. Any alterations to the nozzle and its markings could diminish safety and constitutes a misuse of this product. CAUTION All Task Force Tip nozzles are factory lubricated with high quality silicone grease. This lubricant has excellent washout resistance and long term performance. If your department has unusually hard or sandy water, the moving parts may be affected. Foam agents and water additives contain soaps and chemicals that may break down the factory lubrication. The moving parts of the nozzle should be checked on a regular basis for smooth and free operation, and signs of damage. IF THE NOZZLE IS OPERATING CORRECTLY, THEN NO ADDITIONAL LUBRICATION IS NEEDED. Any nozzle that is not operating correctly should be immediately removed from service and the problem corrected INSPECTION CHECKLIST Nozzle must be inspected for proper operation and function according to this checklist before each use. Check that: 1) There is no obvious damage such as missing, broken or loose parts, damaged labels, etc. ) Coupling is tight and leak free 3) Valve handle moves freely though full range and shuts off fl ow 4) Nozzle fl ow is adequate as indicated by pump pressure and nozzle reaction 5) Shaper turns freely and adjusts pattern through full range and shuts off fl ow ) On Bubble Cups, aspirating sleeve slides freely and is secure at both ends If a nozzle needs service, refer to the following documents: Service Procedure: 1.0 Twister and 1.0 BubbleCup LKD-010 Service Procedure: 1.5 Twister and 1.5 BubbleCup LKF-010 Any twister or bubble cup nozzle failing any part of the inspection checklist is unsafe and must have the problem corrected before use.
