Ferno Mule Litter Wheel with Two Handles
Designed for use with rigid litter stretchers, the Ferno Mule Litter Wheel with Two Handles assists with transporting casualties and patients across rough or uneven terrain. As this is a litter wheel with two handles, it makes it easier for two rescuers to manoeuvre, while also allowing the mule to support itself when the handles are folded down.
Please note that the second image above displays the litter wheel in use with a litter stretcher. A stretcher must be purchased separately; see below for compatibility information.

On Which Terrains Will the Single-Wheel Mule Work?
The Ferno Mule Litter Wheel is fitted with a single wheel. This is to ensure that it can be transported with ease over rough terrain. It also means it can be used on narrow terrains, offering smoother journey for both rescuers and patient.
What Are the Benefits of Two Handles?
The Ferno Mule Litter Wheel with Two Handles offers enhanced benefits when compared to a wheel without handles. The two handles enable two rescuers to manoeuvre and hold onto the wheel with greater control, facilitating a smoother and more steady transportation. Additionally, the handles fold down, allowing the wheel to support itself while the stretcher is being positioned into place.

How Secure Is the Litter Wheel?
The Ferno Litter Wheel features a fast ratchet tie-down system. This locks the litter into place, preventing the stretcher from moving away from the wheel while in transit.
