Hastings Pumper

Scania Mid Mounted Type 4 Pumper

Hastings received the Mid Mounted Type 4 Pumper in 2011 to replace an Isuzu Type 3 Medium Pumper that had been in service since 2004.

Based on a slightly modified Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB) Mark 5 Pumper, this truck is the only one of its kind in the CFA and was previously located at Dandenong.

The vehicle was introduced into the fleet to evaluate different pump configurations for the new Heavy Pumpers. After extensive trials, it was decided to build rear mounted Pumps. The mid mounted Pumper was then re-located to Hastings.
