This 2nd edition of the Pumping Apparatus Driver/Operator Handbook
is designed to educate driver/operators who are responsible for
operating apparatus equipped with fire pumps. The information in
this manual aids the driver/operator in meeting the objectives found
in Chapters 1, 4, 5, 8, and 10 of NFPA® 1002, Standard for Fire
Apparatus Driver/Operator Professional Qualifications (2003
edition).
The information contained in this edition is intended to be an
update of the first edition of the manual. The first edition
incorporated material that was previously found in three separate
IFSTA manuals: Fire Department Pumping Apparatus, Fire Stream
Practices, and Water Supplies for Fire Protection.
The purpose of this manual is to present general principles of pump
operation, along with the application of those principles wherever
feasible. It is also meant to guide driver/operators in the proper
operation and care of apparatus. This manual includes an overview of
the qualities and skills needed by a driver/operator, safe driving
techniques, types of pumping apparatus, positioning apparatus to
maximize efficiency and water supply, fire pump theory and
operation, hydraulic calculations, water supply considerations,
relay pumping principles, water shuttle procedures, foam system
operation, and apparatus maintenance and testing.

While technology has brought a great amount of change to the fire
service in recent years, one thing has not changed. The trucks still
cannot extinguish fires by themselves. Competent, well-trained
driver/operators, fire officers, and truck company members are
essential for the optimum use of the aerial apparatus. The
driver/operator must be thoroughly versed in the proper operation of
the vehicle and the aerial device, proper positioning of the
vehicle, and care and maintenance of the vehicle and its equipment.
The fire officer and the truck company members must be prepared to
perform any of the common truck company functions, including search
and rescue, ventilation, salvage, forcible entry, exposure
protection, and elevated master stream operations.
This 1st edition of the Aerial Apparatus Driver/Operator Handbook is
designed to educate the driver/operators responsible for operating
fire apparatus equipped with aerial devices. These include aerial
ladders, aerial ladder platforms, articulating elevating platforms,
telescoping elevating platforms, and water towers. It includes the
information necessary to meet the job performance requirements of
NFPA® 1002, Standard for Fire Apparatus Driver/Operator Professional
Qualifications, Chapters 1, 2, 4, and 5. It serves as a perfect
accompaniment to IFSTA's Pumping Apparatus Driver/Operator Handbook
(1st edition) for driver/operators who are expected to operate both
types of apparatus.

The competency-based instructional materials for Aerial Apparatus
Driver/Operator Handbook (1st edition) provide fire service
instructors with all the resources needed to teach aerial apparatus
driver/operator skills using the IFSTA Aerial Apparatus
Driver/Operator Handbook (1st edition) as the primary text.
(Students must have successfully completed the Fire Protection
Publications Pumping Apparatus Driver/Operator Curriculum course
before taking this course.) Flexibly designed, the curriculum may be
used for both instructor-led group instruction or
instructor-monitored self-instruction.
The curriculum provides the instructor with complete motivation,
presentation, application, and evaluation materials for teaching the
IFSTA Aerial Apparatus Driver/Operator Handbook (1st edition). The 7
detailed lesson plans, 7 lesson tests, 14 lesson quizzes, 26 student
applications (23 Job Sheets and 3 Practical Activity Sheets), two
100-question multiple-choice final examinations, and 112 visuals are
most suitable for use by fire departments, training entities, and
academies for traditional instructor-led group instruction. Used in
this manner, the curriculum outlines a course of approximately 20
classroom hours.
The curriculum package includes the following:
-Lesson plans with visuals masters
-Student Applications Workbook
-Full-color PowerPoint® visuals on CD-ROM
(This package does not include manual or study guide.)
The Aerial Apparatus Instructor's Guide includes all 7 classroom
lessons and their written lesson tests, performance tests, and final
examinations and quizzes. Now each instructor can have his or her
own set of lesson plans to personalize and localize! (This package
does not include the Aerial Apparatus Student Applications Workbook
or the visuals. It is expected that the program director will
purchase at least one complete package and that instructors will
share the visuals and student application activities that come with
it.)
The curriculum Student Applications Workbook contains study
activities and 26 hands-on student applications (Job Sheets and
Practical Activity Sheets). In addition, each lesson unit in the
Student Applications Workbook contains a self-instruction module
called a LAP (Learning Activity Package). These open-entry,
open-exit, self-paced, self-instruction components enable
individuals to work their way independently through the course with
minimal instructor involvement. Thus, LAPs are particularly useful
in volunteer departments and those situations that do not merit a
formal instructor-led class. The instructor and student jointly
determine the objectives and applications that must be learned for
each chapter. The student then works independently and submits work
for instructor evaluation.

Fire Department
Pumping Apparatus Maintenance 1st Edition (2003))
Author/Publisher: Don Henry
ISBN 10: 0-87939-219-3
This text is the essential manual for both the emergency services
technician and the operator. It elaborates and expands the knowledge
and skills outlined in NFPA® 1071, Standard for Emergency Vehicle
Technician Professional Qualifications, by focusing on the
inspection, servicing, maintenance, and repair of those systems that
are unique to fire service pumping apparatus. It also covers the
preventative maintenance required for fire department pumpers as
outlined in NFPA® 1915, Standard for Fire Apparatus Preventative
Maintenance Program, by giving detailed explanations for how and why
such a program needs to be implemented.
As an added bonus, the text also justifies NFPA® 1901, Standard for
Automotive Fire Apparatus, as it relates to maintenance. Included
with the manual is a CD-ROM containing appendices on maintenance
recommendations for major brands of fire pumps and inspection
equipment, thus completing all of the information needed to maintain
pumping apparatus to meet the NFPA® standards. These appendices are
not printed in the manual.
