Need specs on Sterling 3v8

Wed Apr 02, 2014 12:54 am

Anyone have them? I have volunteered to restore the fire siren in Lyons, Michigan on top of the former city hall for the Lyons Muir historical museum this summer, and I am trying to figure out how in the world we are going to get it down. I am thinking the easiest way would be to rent a bucket truck and cherry pick it of the roof. But if I can piece it apart and carry it down piece by piece, it would be much cheaper. however, I am almost wondering if I cant just get a buddy to go along with me and carry the thing down whole. Just how tall/wide are they? weight? I know they cant be much larger than a model 2 and assuming its only 2-300lbs carrying it down would not be an issue. Looking forward to getting this project rolling.
Thanks, Luke

Do they have a ladder truck? If not, is there another local fire department that has one? The shipping weight is 325lbs, so it is a bit heavier than the model 2.

I(m not sure if Lyons has a ladder rig or not. I know for sure Ionia has one.
