Fire Fighting Knapsack - 15L

Fire Fighting Knapsack - 15L Manual Stainless Steel Water Gun with Oxford Green Fabric

The Fire Fighting Knapsack is a reliable, lightweight solution for tackling small fires and controlling ember attacks. Designed with a 15L water capacity, it comes equipped with a manual stainless steel water gun capable of shooting water up to a range of ≥10 meters. Whether you’re fighting bushfires, small spot fires, or protecting your property from ember attacks, this knapsack provides a highly effective, portable firefighting tool.

The knapsack features durable Oxford green fabric for outdoor reliability and is equipped with a polyethylene hose to withstand rugged conditions. It uses water or a mixed solution of water and additives as the fire extinguishing medium. Note that the nozzle is non-adjustable, providing consistent pressure for effective fire suppression. Available in dark green (army green), the knapsack is both practical and discreet in the field.

Key Features

  • Manual Stainless Steel Water Gun: Direct shooting range of ≥10 meters for effective firefighting.
  • Water Capacity: 15L, perfect for handling small to medium-sized fires.

How to Use

1. Preparing the Fire Fighting Knapsack:

  • Adjust Straps: Adjust the padded shoulder straps for a comfortable and snug fit to ensure ease of movement during use.

2. Operating the Fire Fighting Knapsack:

  • Build Pressure: Pump the handle to build pressure in the tank.
  • Nozzle Function: Since the nozzle is non-adjustable, the water will be dispensed in a consistent jet stream for direct suppression.

3. Safety & Maintenance:

After Use:

  • Empty the Tank: Empty any remaining water and rinse the tank to prevent buildup and contamination.
