PUMP COMPONENTS (CONTINUED)
16. Hopper/Hood — Lift hood to fill. Concrete from a Redi-
Mix truck is poured into this hopper. The hopper can
hold 10 cu. ft of concrete. NEVER put hands or any
other parts of you body into the hopper.
17. Hydraulic Oil Reservoir Access Cover — Remove
this cover to gain access to the hydraulic oil tank for
maintenance/cleaning.
18. Fuel Cap — Remove this cap to add fuel. Fill with No. 2
diesel fuel. DO NOT top off fuel. Wipe up any spilled
fuel immediately.
19. Manifold Access Door — Release latch and lift door
to access the hydraulic manifold block.
20. Control Box — Contains the electrical components
required to run the pump. See Control Box Components
section for component callouts.
21. Oil Filter — Prevents dirt and other debris from entering
the engine. Service the oil filter as recommended in the
maintenance section of this manual.
22. Engine Throttle Lever — Controls the speed of
the engine. For load conditions (pumping concrete)
ALWAYS run the engine at full speed.
23. Fuel Water Separator Filter — Prevents sediments,
water and other debris from entering the fuel system.
Service the fuel filter as recommended in the
maintenance of this manual.
24. In-Line Fuel Filter — Replace or clean fuel filter as
specified in the maintenance section of this manual.
25. Hydraulic Pump — This unit incorporates an axial
variable displacement hydraulic piston pump.
26. Pumping Pressure Gauge — Used to monitor
pressure in the concrete cylinders and shuttle tube.
27. Stroke Volume Control Knob — Turns CW/CCW to
increase or decrease the number of strokes per minute
of the pump.
28. Rear Running Lights — ALWAYS check and make
sure both the right and left running lights are functioning
correctly before towing the pump
29. Pump End Jack Stand — Use this jack stand to
support the rear end of the pump. NEVER deploy on un-
level ground and always check for firmness of ground.
30. Hopper Discharge Outlet — Connect hoses or steel
pipes to the discharge sleeve for pouring concrete.
31. Radio Control Antenna — Mounting location for radio
control antenna. Works in conjunction with hand-held
radio remote (option).
32. Hydraulic Oil Reservoir — Holds 33 gallons (125
liters) of hydraulic oil.
33. Hydraulic Manifold Block — Manifold block
that controls the flow of hydraulic pressure to the
components required to control the pump.
34. Fuel Line Guard/Fuel Gauge — Protects the fuel line
from damage. The fuel line (tube) also serves as a fuel
gauge. To determine when fuel is low visually read the
level of fuel shown on the fuel line.
35. Fuel Tank — Holds 16 gallons (61 liters) of diesel fuel.
36. Shuttle Cylinder/Guard — Under pressure, the
shuttle cylinder shears concrete passing from the
concrete cylinder to the delivery line during the cycle
phase. ALWAYS keep hands clear from shuttle cylinder
during operation.
37. Battery — This unit uses a +12 VDC type battery.
ALWAYS use gloves and eye protection when handling
the battery.
38. Tow End Jack Stand — Use this jack stand to level
