This simple hand tool performs two critical jobs! During natural disasters, the EZ Bagger is used to fill sandbags. During trench rescue incidents, rescuers use the tool to safely remove soil from around a buried victim. Fill Sandbags When disaster strikes and minutes make the difference between safety and tragedy, the Rescue Shovel fills sandbags twice as fast as conventional shovel methods. Simply squeeze the tool and slide it into a sandbag approximately 3 to 4 inches. The molded cleats and the outward force of the design will keep the sandbag open and in place. The sandbag remains on the ground while crews work from a kneeling position. The user scoops sand, tilts the tool and the sand slides into the sandbag. Once the bag is full, the worker squeezes the tool together and slides it out of the sandbag. The tool extends worker endurance because the weight of the sand is lifted near the center of gravity. Trench Rescue All too often trench collapse victims are seriously injured or even killed by the equipment rescuers use to reach them. The new EZ Bagger enables rescuers to dig quickly while they handle the shovel blade directly, allowing them to feel any resistance as they dig. The super compact design of the EZ Bagger enables rescuers to shovel dirt by handling only the shovel blade. Dirt can be removed from the area by attaching a sandbag to the bottom of the EZ Bagger or positioning a bucket at an angle, slightly below the EZ Bagger. Up to eight pounds of soil can be removed with just one scoop and tilt motion. Made of durable, nonconductive polypropylene, the EZ Bagger will withstand the abusive conditions associated with trench rescue work.
