This custom project photo story reviews the newly developed Playmobil City Fire Department rescue units new heavy duty portable gasoline powered hydraulic rescue tool pump manufactured by WHB Rescue Equipment Systems USA. It is considerably larger than than the future 4821 version from Playmobil. The new pump has a front mounted hose reel, & is capable of developing enough power to operate several heavy duty TJW Rescue Equipment Industries UK hydraulic rescue tools simultaneously. It was designed to aid rescue crews in remote areas where the rescue trucks on board hydraulic hose system will not reach. I hope you like the results of this project.


Overview of the crews, & the new gasoline powered portable rescue hydraulic pump for use in remote areas to operate hydraulic cutters, spreaders, & rams.

Not to be the killjoy, ¿but are there any other tools being developed? I see the Jaws Of Life (nice in and of itself, BTW), but there’s so many others as well… I just don’t know what they are…
If I’m jealous, you did SOMETHING right. Keep it up. :D

Hello Andy,

Have a look further down the custom's Gallery at some of the older posts. There have been a lot of different Rescue tools developed in the past by the likes of myself, Bill, Playmofire, Noodwachter72 and FireChief. A lot of these are down in the depths of the forum and need some digging to find, there are certainly a lot of my old posts down there :lol:
