Washburn Fire Protection District Delivery Day
August 8, 2005

Washburn, IL Delivery—On Monday, August 8, Washburn Fire Protection District took procession of their new Alexis Attack Truck. This multi-purpose truck is the result of many hours of planning and engineering between Chief Jess Erkman and his committee and Mike Shull and his staff at Alexis Fire Equipment. This 4x4 Ford F550 has an automatic transmission with a Waterous hydraulic driven pump. This pump has a 250 GPM performance and allows the truck to pump and roll even with the automatic transmission. More information on this system will be announced by Alexis Fire Equipment Co. in the near future. The versatility of this apparatus continues in the winter when Washburn can remove their front bumper turret and hook onto a 10 foot snow plow. Washburn is planning on showing this truck at the Monroe Fire School parade on Sunday August 21 in Monroe, Wisconsin. On hand for the delivery and training from Alexis were Salesman Stan Froelich, Vice President Mike Shull, Electrical Department Forman Jim Watson, and Finish Area Forman Wade Johnson. We would like to thank Chief Jess Erkman and his department for the great steak dinner they served that evening and for their continued support of Alexis Fire equipment. More pictures and information is posted in the new delivery area of this web site.
