Wilesco D305 Fire Truck First Steam

A first steam up of an unfired Wilesco fire truck. It went mostly as planned other than getting the wheel moving. The chain feels very tight although I don't know if that is the problem. The gears on the drive side of the transmission have no play to the extent I think they maybe pinching and binding on the bearing where it is mounted making it stiff. I'll poke about further.

You should wait for steam to come out of the safety valve. then enough pressure and it works.

That should never be the case. Safety valve blows off when there's too much pressure. That's the whole point of it.

Manchild needs to speed it up a tad and use his big boy voice. I’ve been to snappier funerals.
