  1. Arriving on scene 

 

Once you have pulled up you will have a limited amount of water and will run out eventually to avoid this you will need to set up the supply lines this is easy to do here are the steps to do so

Type the command [ /supplyline setup]

Step 3

To get the fire hose Stand near your supply line and type the command [ /hose] and then press the enter key to  connect the hose to the supply line

  1. Fighting the fires

 

It's not as simple as pulling up and spraying water at the fire. Different types of fire have different requirements 

 

To first get your hose type the command [ /hose] this will give you the normal water hose.

When you have the hose out you may change the type of resource that is sprayed from the hose from water to foam just by typing the command [ /foam] to change back to water just retype the command for the hose [ /hose] (You may need to use this when fighting fires as spraying water on a chemical or electrical fire could make it worse)

 

When using the hose you can change the pressure of the hose by using the up and down keys

 

To clear the smoke you can use the fans to do so to set up use the command [ /fan setup] to remove type the command [ /fan remove]

 

  1. RTC

As LFB you have access to the jaws of life / spreaders to use them pull up on scene and type the command [ /spreaders] you can now remove the required doors from      the vehicles however you may wish to stabilise the vehicle if its in a dangerous    location this can be done using the stabilisers to set them up stand near the vehicle you need to stabilise and do the command [ /stabilisers setup] when you are finished and need to remove them type the command when standing near the stabilisers [ /stabilisers remove] and your good to go 

 

  1. LFB Ladder truck

 

With the ladder truck you will need to set this up this is done by typing the command  [ /setupvehicle] do this when you get into the ladder truck before driving off once the ladder has been installed you will need to wait about 20 seconds before you can drive off ( this is just the game recognizing that the ladder has been connected) 

 

To take control of the ladder simply press the X key (can be done from in the truck, next to the truck or in the cage)

 

       (5.1) The controls for the movement of the cage are 

 

W.A.S.D = Ladder swivel or tilt

Shift = Extends the ladder

Control = Retracts the ladder

Left and Right arrow keys = fold / unfold the bucket

Up and Down arrow keys = tilts the bucket

Page up and Page down = Extends / retracts the stabiliser legs 

Home and Insert = Extend / retracts the stabiliser feet 

 

To enter and exit the cage use the commands [ /entercage] or [ /exitcage]
