E-One HP105 Platform Problem

[paets]

I know this should be posted in the Apparatus forum, but I'm just trying to reach a larger audience.

Has anyone who owns an HP105 experienced any problems with the black plastic flex covering that protects the air line that runs up the side of the tower? Ours broke apart last week during use, was sent in and repaired and the same thing happened again a week later as it was being extended at a fire. Any help would be appreciated.

Your not alone. Addison,IL has a HP105 and the same thing happened to ours.
Have you had problems with the cables in that chase fraying? We are about to run all new wire to replace the damage. Don't know if it is related.

Also do you have the two downriggers behind the cab? We have had some problems with them operating properly. We were told that it was a servo problem, but it seems odd that those parts should be going out after a few years.
