Where should the hose roller be placed when using a rescue bucket to lower a victim from upper floors?

Placing the hose roller on the rung even with the top of the window frame ensures that the hose can be smoothly and securely guided into the rescue bucket without any obstructions. This positioning allows the firefighter to maintain control and manage the hose effectively while lowering a victim from upper floors. It minimizes the risk of snagging or catching the hose on obstacles, which can delay the rescue process or create hazards.

In the context of the rescue operation, this method facilitates a more streamlined and safe lowering of the victim, allowing for better visibility and access for the firefighter operating the rescue resources. The location also helps in distributing the weight and ensuring stability, which is crucial when dealing with sensitive situations involving victims in distress.
