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.

Hello Bill,
Thank you for sharing another one of your wonderfull custom's with us :wow:. Your ingenuity never fails to amaze me, how you find uses for all the different parts. I allways knew you would become a truly wonderfull customise if you took the plunge and went for it and you haven't looked back since. I can't wait to see more of your work !

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…

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:

I had not seen this Bill, It looks great and your attention to detail is superb . You have an inlet and outlet hose for oil going to the hyd. spool and it all looks so neat and tidy . Great custom . How much is WHB selling them for ?

Thank you for the positive feedback Ras, & I'm sorry I didn't see this question earlier, but WHB Industries doesn't have a price on it at this time due to needing to get updated prices from DS for the parts to make it! If you're interested I'll find out, & let you know! I don't charge any labor :lol:!
