The hose I most likely a thing for the non-existing (?) Technic figures to run
around spraying with. The red bit is probably the noozle.
The white thing in the back appears to be some sort of styling and a tan/gold
disc can be seen. Perhaps another, larger, hoose reel?
True water capabilities would be cool but not likely since it's pneumatic
tubing and I reccon the mix of pneumatics (as in the other set) and water is
not a good one.

Looks like some sort of mudflap (if you refer to the dark gray panel fairing
that's also positioned above the front wheel pair).

The photo quality is too bad to tell, can't zoom the JPEG.

The one tilting the bucket appears too look like a new piston however the ones
used to raise the bucket and support legs are of the normal type.

Good question.

It will probably raise 45-degrees up from horisontal.

There can be a third behind the mudguard/cab. My guess is there is an identical
set of valves on the right side.

| hi dug my observations are: #. whole sets are done using liftarms i read on this group i think that lego is going to build models only from liftarms so these models are good point to start with it if it's true - they are builded with no bricks at (...)
