Abstract
A small lift vehicle with an articulating boom can maneuver into very small spaces in front of, alongside or behind burning buildings, especially residences. The lift vehicle can quickly deploy with deployable outriggers capable of multi-directional status for support. The boom can support a basket that can have a water cannon. The boom can be controlled by a fireman in the boom itself, and can move into the right position to put water on the seat of a fire. The boom can be equipped with a waterproof camera and/or a thermal imaging system, a hydraulic chainsaw, a gas monitor, a piercing nozzle, a stick chainsaw, and a protective heat curtain. The preferred base has 4-wheel drive and steering for maneuvering on any type of terrain including snow.
