The S4000 as a tank fire engine was produced from 1959 to 1967 and had a driver's cab with a crew cab for a crew of six. In the equipment room, all equipment such as pumps and rapid intervention equipment were integrated, and there were 2 scaling ladders on the accessible roof. The production took place until 1965 in the VEB fire extinguishing equipment factory in Johstadt, then in the VEB fire extinguishing equipment factory in Luckenwalde. The vehicles from Luckenwalde can be recognized by the smooth design of the cabin, the vehicles from Johstadt have a bead under the side windows. The model replicates the version from Luckenwalde. The production ended due to the replacement by the 1969 newly developed W50 LA TLF 16 on all-wheel drive chassis. The replicated model is a military fire brigade equipment truck on which a rubber dinghy was loaded for use in the water.
