NOZZLE OPERATION

5.1

PATTERN CONTROL

TFT nozzles have full pattern control from straight stream to wide fog. Turning the stream shaper clockwise (as seen from the operating
position behind the nozzle) moves the shaper to the straight stream position.
Press and hold the FOG or STRAIGHT STREAM buttons on the nozzle controls to move the stream shaper. Release the button when
the desired pattern is reached.
Since the stream trim point varies with flow, the stream should be "trimmed" after changing the flow to obtain the straightest and farthest
reaching stream. To properly trim the stream, first open the pattern to narrow fog. Then close the stream to parallel to give maximum
reach. Turning the shaper further forward will cause stream crossover and reduce the effective reach of the nozzle.

This device is not rated as ignition proof, explosion proof, or intrinsically safe. Use only in locations
with adequate ventilation and no hazard of flammable vapor buildup.
For Class B fires, lack of foam or interruption in the foam stream can cause a break in the foam
blanket and greatly increase the risk of injury or death. Follow procedures established by the AHJ
for the specific fuel and conditions.
Improper use of foam or using the wrong type of foam can result in illness, injury, or damage to the
environment. Follow foam manufacturer's instructions and fire service training as directed by the
AHJ.
Dents or nicks in the nozzle tip can seriously affect the stream reach or pattern, which may increase
the risk of injury due to exposure. Care must be taken to avoid dents or nicks in the nozzle tip.
