Necessity of Overhaul
Fire trucks with expensive, complicated equipment required to have even higher safety and reliability, such as ladder trucks, water towers and chemical tender, need to be overhauled by specialists after a certain period of years of use in addition to regular maintenance and inspection, in order to maintain safety and the original performance over long time.

Overhaul is to remove and disassemble components and structures of relevant fire trucks for repairing and/or replacing potential faulty/deteriorated parts and consumables to recover the original functions and performance, ensuring "safety" and "security" for the future.
The necessity of overhaul is proven by the fact that there are some critical faults that cannot be detected without disassembly. Such faults can never be identified through appearance inspection. Some of them may lead to a major accident.
