It is the responsibility and duty of all personnel involved in the installation, operation,
inspection and maintenance of this equipment to read and understand this entire manual
before using the equipment.
1-1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Feecon Fixed Oscillation Bumper Turret is an airpowered oscillating foam and water turret mounted on the
front bumper of the fire fighting vehicle. The operational
functions of this turret are: nozzle discharge pattern
control and turret rotation-elevation/ depression. These
functions are controlled at the turret joystick which is
located in the vehicle cab and is controlled by the turret
operator.
The turret provides foam or water protection to the tires
as the vehicle reaches the fire site and it also assists in
extinguishing the fire.
The following function controls are mounted directly
on the joystick handle:
• The turret discharge pattern selector toggle switch
which controls the nozzle discharge pattern
• Two electrical switches that regulate the customer
provided turret discharge shutoff valve
• A two-position toggle switch controlling the manual
and automatic turret oscillation
The turret discharge pattern and rotation, elevation/
depression are regulated by flow control needle valves,
mounted on the solenoid valve manifold assembly.
The turret air supply is provided through the vehicle at
a recommended pressure setting of approximately 100 psi
(65 psi minimum - 130 psi maximum). The water/foam
supply inlet connection accepts a 2" victaulic coupling
only. All turrets are available in black gloss finish only.
Nozzles for this bumper turret are available in non-aspirated models only. Refer to the chart which follows for the
flow rate (75 gpm- 500 gpm), appropriate voltage (12 or
24 VDC) and part number for your particular turret.
1-2. MECHANICAL ANALYSIS
The following descriptions provide a detailed analysis of the mechanical functions of the major turret components.
1. Turret Motion
a.
Horizontal
The two major components that rotate the bumper
turret are the rotation rack and rotation drive gear.
When the operator moves the joystick handle from
side to side, the corresponding solenoid valve actuates the rotation cy Iinder causing it to move in the
7100
appropriate direction. The rotation rack is attached to
rotation cylinder rods by two actuator arms. As the
rotation cy Iinder actuates the rotation rack, the rotation
rack turns the rotation drive gear. In turn, the rotation drive
gear rotates the attached rotation tube and this mechanical
sequence results in the desired turret rotation.
1-1
FEECON FIXED OSCILLATION NON-ASPIRATING AIR-POWERED BUMPER TURRET
b. Vertical
The two major components that elevate the
bumper turret nozzle are a two-piece swivel
shaft and a pivoting linlc One end of the swivel
shaft attaches to the elevation cylinder rod and
the other end is attached to the turret head by the
pivoting link.
The operator moves the joystick handle either forward
(to depress the turret nozzle) or back (to elevate the
turret nozzle) and the corresponding solenoid valve
actuates the elevation cylinder rod/swivel shaft in the
appropriate direction. The turret head, which is connected to the swivel shaft through the pivoting link, thus
moves the nozzle to the desired position.
2. Automatic Turret Oscillation
Automatic turret oscillation is controlled by electrical circuits only. For example, when the operator
moves the oscillation toggle switch down, the left
rotation solenoid is energized through a normally
closed set of contact points in a relay. The turret
rotates left until a magnet, located on the rotation
rack, activates the left limit rnicroswitch. This
activation energizes a circuit relay that, in tum,
sends a signal to the right rotation solenoid. An
electrical holding circuit maintains an energized relay
that allows the turret to continue rotating to the right until
the magnet reaches and activates the right limit
micros witch. As the right .limit switch is activated, the
electrical holding circuit is broken and the turret returns
to the left rotation mode. This chain of events continues
until the oscillation toggle switch is moved up to the
manual oscillation position.

CHAPTER 3 - TURRET FUNCTIONS
3-1. TURRET MANUAL ROTATION (OSCILLATION)-ELEVATION/DEPRESSION
The turret has three directional functions: it rotates (oscillates) up to 180°, elevates to +45°, and depresses
to -20°.
Turret direction (rotation) and elevation/depression are controlled by joystick movement. The joystick is
a pivot type controller, that is, the handle originates from
a console and pivots forward/back and left/right to initiate
turret movement. The joystick movement is not limited to
forward/back and left/right. For example, when the operator moves the handle to the right and forward simultaneously the turret will respond accordingly.
(oscillation) mode when the two-position toggle switch
lever is switched completely !lll ("MAN"). Refer to Fig. 13, Turret Joystick, for toggle switch location and identification.
To rotate the turret to the left (CCW), move the
joystick handle left. To rotate to the right (CW), move the
joystick handle to the right.
To elevate the turret, move the joystick handle back
(toward the rear of the vehicle). To depress, move the
joystick handle forward (toward the front of the vehicle).
To maintain the turret position, release the joystick handle.
CAUTION: Do not twist the joystick.
In order for the turret to rotate (oscillate) in the
manual mode, the Auto/Manual Oscillating Toggle Switch
must be placed in the "MAN" position.
The switch is located on the extreme left top end
of the joystick handle - assuming the operator is fa c in g
the front of the vehicle. The turret is in the manual rotation
Turret movement is initiated as the joystick handle
is moved to the desired position and contacts the appropriate switch or switches, which in tum, completes an electrical circuit that activates a solenoid valve. These solenoid
valves cause the turret to move to the desired position.
When the handle position is changed, solenoid valves for
the previous movement(s) are deactivated and an identical
process is started for the new desired position.

3-2. TURRET AUTOMATIC ROTATION (OSCILLATION)
The turret can be operated in an automatic oscillation
mode. It is factory set for automatic oscillation at a 90° arc,
that is, 45° on each side of the turret centerline (facing the
front of the vehicle).
The Automatic/Manual Oscillation Toggle Switch is
located on the extreme left top end of the joystick handle
- assuming the operator is facing the front of the vehicle.
The turret is in the automatic oscillation mode when
the two position toggle switch lever is switched completely
down ("OSC").
The turret is in the manual oscillation mode when
the two position toggle switch lever is switched completely
!!l2 ("MAN").
Automatic turret oscillation is the result of a closed
electrical circuit activated by the toggle switch.
CAUTION: Adjustments to the Oscillation
Arc Control Switch cannot be made while the
7/00
turret is operating. Automatic arc adjustments
must be done before an emergency situation
arises to insure proper arc and coverage from
the turret.
•
Instructions for Oscillation Control Switch
Adjustment (Setting Automatic Arc of Oscillation)
1. Loosen switch mounting bracket locking

CAUTION: All switches and speed controls have been factory set to operate within turret specifications.
Feecon recommends that all adjustment(s) to turret functions, if required, be performed
only by an authorized factory representative or other qualified personnel. Improper
function adjustment(s) will cause the turret to malfunction in an emergency situation.

3. Rotate the Allen wrench clockwise to decrease and
counterclockwise to increase the turret function speed.
1. Locate the correct end of the bleed control plate to
adjust the desired turret function.
2.
CAUTION: Closing the needle valves too
much may cause the turret function to operate
slowly or stop entirely. Conversely, opening
the valves too much may create difficulty while
trying to control the nozzle discharge rate.

The nozzle discharge pattern toggle switch is located
on the extreme right top end of the joystick handle assuming the operator is facing the front of the vehicle.
The operator controls the nozzle discharge pattern by
moving the toggle lever to the desired pattern position.
When the desired pattern is achieved, the operator releases
the toggle lever and the pattern will be locked in until
changed or adjusted by the operator. The nozzle discharge
pattern can be changed while the turret is discharging
without disrupting operation.

•
Adjustment of Discharge Pattern
NOTE: The discharge pattern may need adjusting as a result of nozzle maintenance or other
conditions which may cause the turret to not conform to NFPA 414 standards.
In order to adjust the nozzle discharge pattern, simply
loosen the nuts and lockwashers on either side of the ear on
the water tip sleeve to the desired position. Retighten the
nuts and lockwashers to lock the sleeve into the position on
the cable end, and discharge the nozzle to verify the
discharge pattern is correct.
To discharge a dispersed (fan) pattern, move the toggle
lever completely down to "DIS" and hold for approximately four seconds. This pattern provides the best
protection as the vehicle moves closer to the hazard
area.
CAUTION: Do not position the sleeve beyond
the 0-ring/piston seal between the sleeve and
the tip body in order to prevent the water from
leaking backwards through the sleeve during
discharge.

CHAPTER 5 -RECOMMENDED INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The following recommendations are based on normal operating conditions. Due to
environmental or other conditions unique to specific installations, the frequency of
some inspection and maintenance procedures may need to be adjusted. Additional
inspection and maintenance procedures may be required.
WARNING: Moving components and gears may cause injury if accidentally activated during
inspection or maintenance. Never perform any maintenance on the inside of the turret
mounting box without first disconnecting the air source to the turret manifold. Also,
disconnect the tubing to the cylinders in order to release the pressure contained in all of the
cylinders. Keep hands and fingers away from moving parts when disconnecting the tubing.
Disconnect the wiring harness to the turret box to eliminate the possibility of electrical shock.
