Most Chengli sweeper trucks are built on a standard truck chassis but have a specialized superstructure with three main systems:
The truck has its main engine for driving, but it also has a separate auxiliary engine to power the entire sweeping mechanism (brushes, fan, and hydraulic system). This ensures consistent power for cleaning regardless of the driving speed.

1. Consult the Official Manual and Training
Operation Manual: Every Chengli fire truck is supplied with a complete set of manuals and documents, including the operational and maintenance guides. This is the only definitive source for proper and safe operation.
Training: Fire truck operators are typically required to be specially trained and qualified. If you are a user or owner, ensure that all operating personnel receive hands-on training for the specific Chengli model they will use.
2. General Operational Areas on a Fire Truck
While specific controls differ, fire truck operation generally involves these systems:
Vehicle Driving and Safety:
Standard truck operation (driving, braking, steering).
Understanding the vehicle's size, weight (especially when fully loaded with water/foam), and maneuverability.
Activating emergency lights and sirens.
Engaging the Power Take-Off (PTO) to power the fire pump or other equipment.
The Fire Pump System:
Engaging the Pump: Activating the PTO and switching the pump control system on.
Water Source:
Drafting from an external source (like a pond or hydrant) using suction hoses and the pump priming system.
Supplying water from the on-board tank.
Controlling Discharge: Monitoring and adjusting water/foam pressure and flow to the various outlets (hoselines, monitors).
Foam System (if applicable): Operating the foam proportioner to mix foam concentrate with water.
Water/Foam Monitor (Cannon):
Controls for aiming the water cannon (horizontal and vertical angle). Some models, like fire-fighting robots, have computerized or handheld remote controls for precise movement.
Selecting the spray pattern (straight stream, fog/flower pattern).
