Type 6 Wildland Light Engine Configuration
The apparatus shall be a light brush apparatus on a light duty chassis. The apparatus body shall be designed to withstand
the rigors of off-road use and Wildland fire fighting. Specific details of the apparatus shall be as described below.
General Craftsmanship Requirements
The installation of hardware parts such as hinges, catches, handles, or knobs shall be accomplished to avoid damaging the
hardware or the mounting surface. After fabrication, all parts shall be cleaned of the following: smudges, loose, spattered,
or excess welding, metal chips or filings, or any other foreign material that may detract from the intended operation,
function, or appearance of the apparatus or its equipment. This shall include particles which could loosen or become
dislodged during the normal expected life of the equipment. Whenever possible, this cleaning shall take place before parts
are assembled.
Threaded parts or devices shall show no evidence of cross -threading, mutilation, or detrimental burrs. All screw type and
rivet fasteners shall be tight to allow no relative movement between attached parts. No bolts or screws shall be tightened in
excess of the SAE torque standard established for the grade, screw, and thread type.
Use of dissimilar metals shall be avoided whenever possible. If dissimilar metal contact is unavoidable, a nonabsorbent
closed cell neoprene insulator tape shall be placed between the metals. Caulking may be used in addition to the tape to
provide addition protection. Wherever dissimilar metal contact occurs, measures shall be taken to avoid moisture from
collecting in the contact areas. Wherever dissimilar metal contact occurs each surface shall be properly primed and
painted, even if tape and other protectants are used. Wherever dissimilar metal contact occurs, fastener quantity shall be
limited, and washers, gaskets, sleeves made of compatible material shall be used. Corrosion inhibiting materials (i.e.,
pastes, compound) shall be applied to all screws or bolts that are inserted into dissimilar metals.
All welds shall be free of defects such as cracks, porosity, undercuts, voids, and gaps. There shall be no weld burn through.
Fillets shall be uniform and smooth. There shall be no damage to adjacent parts resulting from the welding.
Wiring shall be protected from tears, abrasions, cuts, etc. from loose items within compartment spaces, and from items
present in the operating environment outside of the compartments. Special care shall be taken to conceal wiring and tucked
away to keep from hanging low, prevent catching on brush, rocks, and various other items present in the off-road
environment.
Guards, shields, or other protection shall be provided where necessary in order to protect personnel from injury from hot,
moving, or rotating parts during non -maintenance operations; to protect fragile equipment from becoming damaged when
operation off road, and to protect from sharp edges or corners.
Components shall be located for ease of inspection, routine maintenance, or removal. Drains, oil and fuel filters, filler plugs,
grease fittings, air and water lines and etc. shall be located so that they are readily accessible and do not require special

tools for servicing. Lube extensions, oil drain, fill extensions, or special tools required for minor chassis maintenance shall
be provided by the contractor for each apparatus manufactured.
Securing of air, water, fuel and/or electrical lines, looms or harnesses shall not utilize stick-on/adhesive backed fasteners;
insulated metal clamps or clips shall be used. Nothing shall be permitted to hang loose from apparatus.
If multiple apparatus are being construction simultaneously, each apparatus shall be identically constructed and configured
unless specified otherwise.
Carrying Capacity
The chassis components and suspension shall be capable of withstanding the stresses of use in the road -less environment
at full Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). The GAWR and GVWR of the
chassis shall not be exceeded when loaded to its in-service weight. NFPA 1906 current edition shall apply to define in-
service weight.
Minimum Capacities:
■ Vehicle shall carry five (5) personnel including the driver
■ Water tank capacity of a minimum 300 U.S. gallons
■ Foam cell capacity of a maximum 17 U.S. gallons
■ The allowance for miscellaneous equipment shall be a minimum of 2000 pounds
Noise Exposure Test
The apparatus, or each apparatus if multiple or ordered, shall be tested under the procedures defined in 49 CFR 393.94,
"Vehicular interior noise levels test procedure," except that the test shall be performed with the vehicle traveling at a steady
speed of 65 mph (105 km/hr) on level, paved, smooth -surface road. The test shall be conducted from any seat location and
the maximum noise level shall be 90 dBA without any warning devices in operation. Documentation shall be included in the
apparatus delivery binder illustrating the results of the test to show proof of either a failure or meeting the required standard.
Training
An intensive training session, in the correct procedures and usage of the apparatus, shall be conducted at BFX Fire
Apparatus' facility in Weatherford, Texas by BFX Fire Apparatus trained personnel. Items that shall be addressed through
thorough explanation and hands-on exercises shall include:
■ OEM chassis emissions procedures
■ OEM chassis maintenance procedures/schedules
■ Remote and field diagnostics of the multiplex electrical system
■ Basic troubleshooting procedures, i.e., "DO NOT MOVE APPARATUS" light
