Comparison

How It Compares With the Alternatives

4x2 water tanker with 15000 L tank	Lower load capacity and shorter range but better fuel efficiency and easier to drive in tight urban areas
Water truck with fixed spray nozzles only	Less flexible for different cleaning or irrigation needs but simpler to maintain
Used imported water tanker	Lower upfront cost but higher long-term maintenance and parts availability issues

Operating Notes

Use Guide

Confirm the chassis drive configuration and hand of drive before ordering to match local regulations
Fill the tank only through the manhole or pump inlet; keep the air breather valve clear
Prime the pump at no more than 7 metres suction depth and expect full flow within 15 minutes
Use the water cannon only after the tank is full and the pump is running at full speed
Drain the tank and pump after use in freezing conditions to prevent damage
Free operator training is available at the factory before shipment
