(5) stop (3) stage telescopic water hydro built in 1895 in Worcester mass.
If there is a major fire in the city, there isn't enough water pressure to make it to the top floor.
We call them flush toilets because they run up on city water pressure and dump water into the sewer system to run down.
The shipper rope was replaced with a floor seeking controller made in our shop. The platform is wood as well as the three cab walls. The gates have barn door tracks and expanded metal.
Have to grease the pistons once a month because we can't use asbestos impregnated grease that used to last at least five years.
