1 Introduction

The Shergood Deicer is an add-on for the Lusch Hermes Modular Truck. It is compatible with select Shergood aircraft and can be used for both deicing and anti-icing purposes. The truck has a 1500 gallon main tank for Type 1 deicing fluid, and a 300 gallon secondary tank which can be used for Type 2, 3 or 4 deicing fluids. Fluids can be applied through a sprayer on a boom mounted bucket, or through a hose system at the back of the vehicle. The truck is refilled using 250 gallon totes.

To install your deicing add-on, use the following procedure:

  1. Rez your deicer add-on next to your Lusch Hermes Modular Truck.
  2. Click the truck and select "EDIT MODE" from the menu.
  3. Wait approximately 5 seconds for the hover text on the truck to change to "EDIT MODE ON!".
  4. Right click on the deicer add-on and select "Edit".
  5. Hold shift and click on the truck.
  6. Select "Link" from the edit menu. The deicer add-on should snap into place.
