The equipment is mounted on a trolley and is self contained. The machine for cleaning a fireman's hose pipe is free standing and is built on a trolley with wheels. It includes a stainless steel sink (1) through which the hose must pass, around guide rollers (3). The hose then passes between a pair of rotating nylon brushes (4) and a double set of rinsing jets (5). At the output the hose may be coiled on a supporting platform (6). The platform is telescopic in order to provide sufficient space to support the hose. When not in use the platform may be folded back over the top of the trolley. A shutter flap (7) at the inlet to the brushing and rinsing stage closes when the final end of the hose has passed through. This action may be used to detect the end and thus stop the operation of the machine.
