tda FEATURES DEDICATED TO QUALITY In this industry, you ll never hear of anything being too safe or too effective. So, when we build our apparatus, quality is always our top priority. It starts with the best materials like our steel aerial ladders and substructures to build the sturdiest trucks available. Then the apparatus is constructed by our AWS-certified welders, and every single weld is NDT third-party inspected using mag particle examination. We also individually paint each piece of our apparatus prior to final assembly to ensure total coverage. This gives our trucks their exceptional look and is critical in effectively protecting against corrosion. CP-84 Waterway: The CP-84 Waterway is a standard feature that provides the strongest, most durable waterway on the market. A galvanized inner coating prevents corrosion of the 84,000 psi pipe while the exterior waterway is chrome plated to provide a smooth telescopic movement through-out the entire extension and retraction of the aerial ladder. Substructure: The substructure on our tillers fully supports each compartment from the center to the outermost edge. It provides additional strength and rigidity as an integral part of the torque box structure, and rubber isolators provide additional support to allow for flex under even the most extreme conditions. Additionally, compartments in high flex areas are built as individual modular units with flex joints between each compartment. HOW TO FIND A DEALER Before we send any apparatus out the door, it first goes through a number of rigorous tests to ensure performance is up to Smeal quality standards. All of our efforts to ensure quality mean you ll get the safest apparatus on the market. Tri-Vue Cab: The Tri-Vue cab provides a level of road visibility unmatched in the industry. Our three-pane viewing system gives the rear driver a wide viewing range for maximum maneuverability. The cab also features ergonomic seating, automatic temperature control and a monitoring system to keep the tiller driver aware of wheel position at all times. V-Mux Multiplexed Bodies: This electrical system maximizes flexibility and adaptability to meet even the most challenging needs. Tested and Proven: Every Smeal tiller goes through a number of rigorous tests before leaving our facility. SM_Broch_Tillers_040810.indd 2 QL-12 Electrical System: This plug n play system reduces the amount of non-plug connectors and makes it easy to add components and make repairs to the electrical system. Smeal tillers come standard with a V-mux electrical system. Fifth Wheel Lock: Four hydraulic lock cylinders securely lock the pivot point between the tiller trailer and the chassis, providing additional stability. This standard feature also allows the chassis to be located in any position for aerial operation. To best serve you, Smeal has a number of dealer locations across North America. Our dealer network includes some of the most knowledgeable, experienced dealers in the industry. To find the one nearest you, visit smeal.com and click on the Dealers button. Compartmentalization: All compartment arrangements including ground ladder storage are completely customizable on our tillers. Each compartment is designed independently to allow the torque box freedom of movement during aerial operation and extreme driving conditions, as well as provide ease of repair or replacement in the event of an accident. Stabilizing System: Our tillers feature a two-stabilizer out-and-down system with an 18 ft. spread and positioning to allow for easy access to waterway inlets. It also includes hot-dipped galvanized coating to prevent corrosion, redundant left- and right-side controls and a fifth wheel lock system. 4/8/10 1:00:52 PM
