Bush Fire Aqua Backpack

The Bush Fire Aqua Backpack is a water backpack pump made for fighting small bush, grass and heath fires in terrain a vehicle cannot reach. It holds about 20 litres, enough reserve to be effective on a small fire, and weighs only 1.4 kg empty. The bladder is high-quality PVC fabric, so it is tough and quick to clean after a job.

A large 100 mm filler opening with a red screw cap makes refilling quick. At the base, a brass outlet feeds a hose to the double stroke pump lance, which throws water about 8 m. The lance has a forward-angled grip for pumping and a nozzle that switches between mist and spray by hand, with no tools needed. When it is not in use, the lance stows across the front of the pack in two retaining straps.

Shoulder straps, a lap belt and a chest strap keep the load stable on the move, and a pair of carry handles on the top edge make it easy to lift and hand over when full.
