VEHICLE PLATFORM
Both models are available in LHD and RHD
78 Series Hardtop
The ideal base model if you intend to use your ambulance in off-road
rural environments. There is ample space in the rear compartment
for both primary and secondary stretchers, as well as an attendent
seat and all the essential equipment your first response vehicle will
require. It goes without saying that the Land Cruiser 70 Series is
the benchmark for off-road vehicles in all developing countries.
Used extensively throughout the aid world for many years the
Land Cruiser HZJ78 comes with reliability and durability as standard.
Commuter Bus
The Hiace is renowned for being able to cope with developing world
conditions. When the rear seats are removed, there is ample room
for a stretcher and other key ambulance accessories. The Hiace is
the perfect vehicle for urban usage where tarmac and dirt roads are
the norm. With its enviable Toyota reputation for reliability, the Hiace
has proved to be a success in many markets. This makes it the ideal
model for conversions into either ambulances or for other uses such
as mobile clinics and blood donor centres.

STANDARD ESSENTIALS
fitted both on the 78 Series Hardtop and the Hiace
1
All these options are sourced by TGS from the major manufacturers of this type of equipment
and are extensively tested by TGS before offering to customers.
Wipe-clean interior panels, partition and flooring
Inside an ambulance, prime consideration must be given to hygiene. The wipe-clean interior
panelling including partition with a window takes the vinyl floor option one step further.
The standard vehicle panelling in the patient compartment is removed and replaced with
3mm vinyl PVC material, making the whole patient compartment easier to clean and gives
it a more clinical aspect. A partition to separate the driver from the patient compartment is
installed and a high-quality clear sliding window is incorporated to provide ease of
communication between the driver and personnel in the rear cabin. The sliding window
also allows the driver to see when reversing and through the rear view mirror when driving.
2
Primary stretcher
This wheeled stretcher features an adjustable backrest with five positions and four
swivel wheels. It is made of a sturdy one inch anodised aluminium tubing frame which
makes it lightweight (10kg) and easy to manoeuvre. The cover is made from tough
green vinyl coated nylon that is easily wiped clean and also fungus and rot resistant.
It features patient restraint straps with automotive seatbelt type buckles as standard.
Dimensions: length: 1.88m x width: 52cm x height: 23cm
The installation includes a split locking device for extra patient safety.

Contour mattress
The contour mattress enhances patient comfort on the stretcher. It is also easy to
clean. In conjunction with the foldable stretcher this mattress places the client in a
suitable position to obtain assistance from the ambulance paramedic.
4
Ceiling mounted IV track
Fitted on the ceiling in the ambulance compartment, it provides two sliding bottle hooks
above the main stretcher to enable the paramedic to secure IV (intravenous) solutions.
We also offer the possibility to fit an extra two tracks.
5
Attendant seat
Original rear left hand seat which is optimally positioned to enable the paramedic to
comfortably monitor the patient lying in the stretcher.

Air conditioning vents
In order to improve ventilation in the rear cabin of our Land Cruiser Hardtop ambulances,
these now include additional ventilation taken from the vehicle's existing heating and air
conditioning system. The rear ambulance compartment can also have an
additional independent air conditioning unit fitted if requested.

The following represents our recommended standard essential list of equipment when
considering an ambulance to be used to administer first aid before the transferral of patients

which represent the best value for money.
