Systems for ladders are made to order according to the ladders to be carried. In order to provide the System
you require, we need to know the manufacturer, model number and length of ladders to be carried. The following
models are available according to the nested depth of the ladder combinations:

Position the unit on the shelf of the apparatus and clamp it in place so that you can determine where
the holes will be required for the mounting bolts. Also check to be sure there is an integral component of
the body structure to attach the mounting bolts through. If there is no main frame member, you may have to

of the ladder rack.
When the ladder is raised and lowered in this position, it should clear protruding objects on the
apparatus, such as emergency light, hand rails, etc. Make sure that when the ladders are in the up position
they do not obstruct cross lays on hose reels.
In the event that the booms come into contact with the stiffening rib at the top of the vertical hose bed
wall, you may have to notch out the stiffening rib to recess the HLAS System. If the stiffening rib must be
notched, the exposed metal surfaces should be painted and covered with an edge guard material. In
addition, if the stiffening rib is notched, you may wish to add a backing plate on the inside surface of the
hose bed wall. The plate will reinforce the hose bed wall and provide a good mounting support for the
vertical mounting holes, if used. The edges of the mounting plate should be rounded off on the side next

Make up a wiring harness using wires longer than the required run lengths. Temporarily make all
wire connections so you can test the system. With the table properly secured, you should be able to operate
the unit with the ladders in place. Be sure the ladders will clear the edge of the table before drilling any
holes in the apparatus.
