Place of work The place of work is the area in which people must remain in order to
carry out the work.
Place of work − The machine operator’s place of work is with the remote control when
machine operator the pump is in operation. The place of work must be selected so as
to allow visual contact with the site of concrete placement, and the
truck mixer driver, and so that the working area can be observed at
the same time. A signaller must otherwise be used.
The operator’s place of work is with the machine when this is being
set up or prepared for driving.
Place of work − The hoseman’s place of work is within the danger zone of the end
hoseman hose, but not beneath the placing boom. This requires a greater level
of caution. The hoseman and machine operator must have visual
contact.
Place of work − The truck mixer driver’s place of work is in the danger zone of the
truckmixer driver hopper and at operating elements for the agitator and truck mixer.
This requires a greater level of caution. The truck mixer driver and
machine operator must have visual contact.
Working area The working area is the area in which work is carried out with or on
the machine. Parts of the working area can become danger zones
depending on the operation being carried out and the position of the
placing boom.
Impermissible Because of their high manoeuvrability, some placing booms can also
workingarea be shifted into positions for which they are not designed. This may
overload or damage the placing boom. Placing booms must there
fore only be moved within the permitted working area.
26 BP03_076_0501EN
Safetyregulations
Danger zone The danger zone is the area surrounding the machine, in which
people may be at risk of injury from movements required by the
work.
The danger zone varies within the working area and depends on
theactivity being carried out and the position of the placing boom.
Danger zones must be secured and clearly identified. The machine
operator must be capable of seeing the danger zone at all times and
under all circumstances. If necessary he must appoint a signaller to
supervise the danger zone. Increased caution is called for and suit
able personal protective equipment is required if a place of work is in
a danger zone. The machine operator is responsible for safety in the
danger zone of the machine whilst the machine is in use.
The machine operator must stop work immediately and press the
EMERGENCY SHUT−DOWN button if an unauthorized person enters
the danger zone.
Support legs and There is a danger of crushing in the swing−out and extension zone
support feet for the supports.
Placing boom The danger zone when working with the placing boom is the zone
over which the placing boom is slewed. In this area there is a risk of
injury from falling concrete and delivery line components.
BP03_076_0501EN 27
Safetyregulations
Machine All the time the vehicle is in operation, there is a risk of injury on and
below the machine from moving parts and bursting delivery lines or
hydraulic hoses, as well as a risk of falling on slippery surfaces or
steps.
End hose The danger zone when pumping is started, during pumping
operations, when removing a blockage and during washing out
procedures is the area around the end hose in which the hose may
swing out. The diameter of the danger zone is twice the end hose
length.

Tomeasure this level, the sound produced by the machine was
measured at several measuring points and at a fixed distance and
height. The average value was determined from these measure
ments and converted to a theoretical distance. The sound pressure
level stated for the machine therefore always referred to a theoretical
distance and was given in dB(A).
Sound power level Nowadays, the sound power level of the machine is stated. To calcu
late this, an imaginary sphere of defined diameter is centered on the
machine. The sound pressure level is measured again at several
measuring points on this sphere. To obtain the value for the sound
power level, the calculated sound pressure level is now multiplied by
the surface area of the imaginary sphere. The sound power level is
given in dB.

3.4 Description of This section is intended to help you understand the functions of the
the functions machine so that you can restrict the field of the machine’s applica
tions to suitable areas and avoid errors in operation.
3.4.1 Boom The boom arms are of box construction. They are actuated hydrauli
cally.
Arm hinges with excellent angular range, in combination with the
powerful slewing gear with its wide slewing range, provide very flex
ible movement.
3.4.2 Delivery line The delivery and riser lines comprise standard straight pipe sections
and elbows. These are thus easily replaced.
Standard Putzmeister clamp couplings serve as both pivot joints and
pipe connectors.
The elbow pivot at the end of the boom acts as a brake on the falling
concrete and reduces the wear on the end hose. Thanks to its steel
corded fabric, this hose is suitable for an operating pressure of up to
85 bar.
3.4.3 Support legs The telescopic support legs swing out and are fitted with fully hy
draulic support cylinders thus giving the stability required.
3.4.4 Hydraulic control All boom movements are effected hydraulically. All boom cylinders
have two integral safety valves to provide protection against over
loading or rupture of the hydraulic lines.
The hydraulic fluid supply is sufficient to operate a number of cylin
ders simultaneously. The hydraulic control can be operated from the
concrete pump or by using a portable remote control unit.
BP02_074_9605EN 313
Generaltechnicaldescription
3.4.5 Hydraulic system The hydraulic drive for the rotor pump comprises three hydraulic
circuits. The main circuit for the rotor drive (delivery unit) is a closed
circuit.
As the speed of the truck engine increases, the speed of the vari
able−displacement pump and thus the quantity of fluid it delivers
also increases. This means that the speed of the rotor also increases.
314 MP02_006_0308EN
Generaltechnicaldescription
3.4.6 Pump Putzmeister pumps are driven hydraulically by diesel engines. The
output can be infinitely adjusted to any value required. The delivery
unit comprises the rotor housing (3) and the rotor (5) rotating around
a central axis with the two pressure rollers (2). The rotor is driven by
a variable hydraulic pump, the hydraulic motor and a planetary gear
ing. The pressure rollers run freely.
Inside the rotor housing there is a special pump tube (1) which is
squeezed together by the pressure rollers rolling over it. This pushes
the material in the pump tube ahead of the pressure roller towards
the rotor housing outlet and into the delivery line (4).

Generaltechnicaldescription
Note
There is an underpressure in the rotor housing to ensure that the
concrete delivery hose behind the pressure roller rapidly returns
toits original cross section. An underpressure is generated in the
delivery hose as a result of the delivery hose rapidly returning to its
original cross section. This causes the concrete to be sucked in from
the agitator hopper.

automatically limits the output to 50%. The display jumps automati
cally to the Pump settings" menu. There the settings are automati
cally set to the factory settings.
Engine speed If the engine speed" symbol is flashing, the speed of rotation signal
from the engine is absent. You can switch off the sensor (as de
scribed above). This automatically switches off EOC operation. The
engine speed is limited to the value preset in the Pump settings"
menu (rpm1/2/3). The engine speed must be adjusted manually.

Generaltechnicaldescription
Hydraulic fluid over If the hydraulic fluid overheating" symbol flashes, the temperature of
heating the hydraulic fluid has exceeded 85°C. This reduces the output
gradually to 10%. If the sensor is defective, you can switch it off (as
described above). This reduces the output to 50% and the hydraulic
fluid radiator fans are switched on if the engine is running.
Output current monitor Some of the EPS control outputs are assigned to functions (such as
pump control system, transfer tube valve and mixer control unit). The
allocation of the output functions can be found in the accompanying
electrical circuit diagram. These output functions also have current
monitoring. The instantaneous output current value is compared to a
pre−set value. If the output current exceeds the pre−set value due to
a fault (eg short−circuit), the associated output is switched off and a
fault message is forwarded to the EGD. The output current monitor"

3.5.10 Agitator safety cutout The agitator safety cutout consists of a switching cam and a pres
(RSA) sure roller switch. The switching cam is fastened to the hinge pin of
the grille, the pressure roller switch to the hopper. The pressure roller
switch is acted on as soon as you open the grille. This causes the
agitator to halt and the pressure to be dumped from the accumulator,
ie the transfer tube will no longer be able to switch over. In addition,
the delivery pistons return to the end position and the concrete
pump halts. You must switch the concrete pump off and back on

proved for the machine. The maximum permissible end hose length
is also indicated on the boom rating plate.
Danger
It is forbidden, under normal conditions of use, to extend the end
hose or to fit an end hose longer than that specified on the rating
plate. It is further forbidden to use an end hose with a greater diam
eter or higher weight. The machine can tip over if you use a pro
hibited end hose.

Generaltechnicaldescription
Note
The high−pressure water pump is equipped with a pressure dump
valve which is set to 100bar. If the gun is closed and 100bar is
exceeded in the water system, the pressure dump valve opens a
bypass to the intake side of the high−pressure water pump. Although
the water in the high−pressure water pump circulates at low pres
sure, there is pressure in the high−pressure hose.
If the gun is opened, the pressure in the high−pressure hose
decreases, the pressure dump valve closes the bypass and the
pressure in the high−pressure water pump reaches operating
pressure.
Caution
You must drain the residual water from the high−pressure water
pump if there is a risk of freezing, even if the machine is operating
ona construction site.

The hydraulic fluid is also cooled by the water in the water box. The
hydraulic fluid warms up the piston rods for the drive cylinders.
These are flushed, and thus cooled, by the water in the water box on

5.4.4 EMERGENCY SHUT– It is only possible to intervene rapidly in the event of danger if all the
DOWN function EMERGENCY SHUT−DOWN buttons are functioning.
Caution
The machine is no longer safe in operation if the EMERGENCY
SHUT−DOWN button is defective, as you will no longer be able to
switch the machine off quickly enough if danger threatens.
You must therefore inspect the function of the EMERGENCY SHUT−
DOWN buttons and the lever position for the boom valves (see
Function check on the boom control block") before starting work
each time.
Danger
The machine is only switched off electrically when the EMERGENCY
SHUT−DOWN button is pressed. Although this causes all the electri
cally actuated hydraulic valves to be switched off, an uncontrolled
sinking of the boom caused by leakages in the hydraulic system, for
instance, cannot be prevented in this way.

support cylinders When the hydraulic fluid cools, its volume reduces as cold hydraulic
fluid has a smaller volume than does hot hydraulic fluid. This causes
the cylinders on the boom, swing−out legs and supports to retract a
little and the boom and the support feet to sink.
Caution
The boom can sink during lengthy pauses in work due to cooling of
the hydraulic fluid. For this reason you should never leave the boom
in the unfolded position during breaks in working.
In addition, you must keep the supports under constant observation
whilst the machine is in operation. You may have to readjust the
swing−out cylinders and support cylinders.
Loss of volume

The extent to which the boom and the truck sink depends on the
extent to which the various boom and support cylinders have been
extended and the magnitude of the temperature difference in the
hydraulic fluid.

Operation
5.5.5 Uncontrolled boom The following defects may be the cause of uncontrolled boom
movements movements:
− Malfunction in the remote control circuit
− Malfunction on the boom control block
− Lines, threaded unions or boom cylinders leaking
− Defective mono−isolator on the boom cylinder
− Hydraulic system not carefully bled
− Insufficient hydraulic fluid in the reservoir
− Cooling of the hydraulic fluid
In this case, the boom may move as soon as the remote control is
switched on. Halt work immediately. You can continue working only
after the causes have been remedied and perfect functioning of the
machine is ensured.
Note
Whatever the reason for the uncontrolled movements of the boom,
you must halt the work on site and have the cause for the breakdown
determined and rectified by qualified personnel.
Danger
In no event should you first press the EMERGENCY SHUT−DOWN
button if the boom starts uncontrolled movements. Should you do
this you will have no ability to counteract the movement.

Caution
The hydraulic fluid is warm when you fold the arm assembly. It then
cools and the pressure in the cylinder drops. If you then raise arm1,
the remaining arms become depressurised and may fall down.
You must therefore draw the arm assembly together briefly before
raising arm1.

5.8 Pumping operations You must carry out the following operations before you start to pump:
− Set the machine up for work properly (see Setting up" section).
− Set the machine supports out properly (see Supporting the
machine" section).
− Carry out all necessary function checks (see Function checks"
section).
− Extend the boom to the desired working position (see Extending
the placing boom" section).
5.8.1 Hazards Dangers to the life and limb of site personnel can arise at many
points during pumping operations. You can minimize these dangers
by observing the following notes.
2 12500500
Danger
There is a risk of injury in the area around the end hose if the end
hose strikes out when starting to pump, after a blockage has been
freed or during washing out. This zone is twice the end hose length
in diameter.
The end hose must be allowed to hang freely.
Ensure that no−one is standing in the danger zone. Keep the danger
zone under constant observation.
You must halt work immediately and press the EMERGENCY SHUT−
DOWN button if anyone enters the danger zone.
MP07_064_9912EN 571
Operation
12501901
Danger
Never bend the end hose over. Never attempt to straighten a bent
end hose by increasing the pressure. The end hose must not be in
serted in the concrete. Extension of the placing boom and end hose
beyond the length specified on the boom rating plate is forbidden.
The end hose must be secured against falling.
572 MP07_064_9912EN
Operation
Sucking in air
10800114
Danger
Entrapped air in the delivery line is dangerous as the compressed air
is released suddenly at the end of the delivery line and the concrete
can be blown out explosively. No air must be sucked in for this rea
son.
You should therefore always fill the agitator hopper with concrete up
to the mixer shaft during pumping operations.
MP07_064_9912EN 573
Operation
5.8.2 Notes on correct To supplement the notes given here, you will find comprehensive
pumping information on the following subjects in our Concrete technology"
pamphlet (BP2158):
− Concrete components
− Properties of freshly−mixed concrete
− Properties and conditions of freshly−mixed concrete
whenpumping
− Guide to avoid faults
− Specifications and regulations of the Technical Regulations"
Bouncing boom
Note
If the boom bounces very heavily in pumping operations, check the
support and correct it as required. Calm pumping is achieved if the
rear wheels are in light contact with the ground. Do this by retracting
the rear support feet until the rear wheels are in ground contact and
then retract the support feet about another1cm.
The boom can also bounce if air is taken in and compressed in the
delivery line. You should therefore always make sure that the agitator
hopper is always filled with concrete to the mixer shaft and that no air
is sucked in.
574 BP07_321_9704EN
Operation
Favourable boom
position
32202300
Note
A horizontal position of the last arm is favourable for pumping.
If the last arm is lower than the horizontal, the concrete in this part of
the delivery line will flow more quickly as a result of its self−weight.
The flow velocity is lower if the arm position is horizontal, and thus
the wear on the delivery pipes and the end hose is less.
When the pump is stopped, only the content of the end hose flows
out if the arm position is horizontal; the content of the delivery line
can flow out if the arm position is below the horizontal.
The strokes of the pump cause forces to act along the delivery line
and thus along the boom. If the last arm is vertical, the forces also
act vertically on the boom end and move the boom up and down.
Ifthe arm position is horizontal, the boom is moved forwards and
backwards, which causes a light rocking motion.
BP07_321_9704EN 575
Operation
5.8.3 Starting pumping The process from the start of concrete pumping to the time at which
a continuously flowing stream of concrete exits from the end hose is
known as starting to pump.
The entire delivery line must be wetted with water at the start of
pumping operations.
" Spray approximately 10−15 litres of water into the intake cone.
" Swing the mixer chute away from the intake cone.
This ensures that no coarse grain is sucked in at the start of
pumping.
" Slowly fill the hopper with concrete and pump at medium
speed.
Note
You must start to pump with a cement−water mixture (grout) if the
delivery line is new, if the concrete recipes are difficult or if the
delivery line has not been used for a long time.
576 MP07_023_9912EN
Operation
Caution
The maximum delivery pressure shall not exceed that specified on
the rating plate or in the check book.
" Pour the concrete from the truck mixer, silo, etc into the agitator
hopper.
Note
Start with a low output and increase this gradually after several cubic
metres.
MP07_023_9912EN 577
Operation
5.8.5 Breaks in pumping You should avoid breaks in pumping as far as possible, as the con
crete in the delivery line can start to set, or can become segregated
due the vibrations of the machine. Note the following points if breaks
are unavoidable:
− Never leave the delivery line under pressure;
− Relieve the delivery line during short breaks in delivery by reverse
pumping briefly. Move the concrete at short intervals by forward
and reverse pumping;
− You should avoid breaks when pumping concrete with a low water
retentivity (tendency to bleeding) as the vibrations can segregate
the concrete;
− Pump the concrete back into the agitator hopper before long
breaks in pumping. You must mix the concrete again before you
re−start pumping.
Caution
Never use force to pump segregated concrete or concrete that has
become lumpy because it is beginning to set into the delivery line.
Blockages can very easily be caused in this way.
578 MP07_023_9912EN

the overheating and rectify it. Do not switch the engine off, as the
radiator must remain in operation.
580 MP07_024_0301EN
Operation
5.8.7 Restarting Should the pump have, nevertheless, been switched off because of
overheating, you should proceed as follows:
" Never switch the engine off, as the radiator must remain in
operation.
" Look for the cause of fluid overheating and rectify it. Wait until
the fluid has cooled if you are not able to find the fault immedi
ately.
" Once the red indicator lamp has extinguished, switch the
pump back on and continue pumping slowly at reduced
output.
MP07_024_0301EN 581
Operation
5.8.8 Special cases On some construction sites, it may be the case that the net reach of
the boom is not adequate. You then have the option of connecting a
continuation delivery line to the boom tip or, if your machine is
equipped with a lateral outlet, connecting a delivery line there.
Continuation
delivery line
22202100
Caution
No forces must be transferred from the fixed delivery line to the
boom or vice versa.
The stationary delivery line may not place additional loading on the
boom. This will prejudice the stability of the machine.
The boom can sink during pumping operations and place the deliv
ery hose under tension as a consequence of cooling of the hydraulic
fluid in the boom cylinders. This can cause forces to be transferred
or the delivery hose to tear. You should therefore keep the delivery
hose under constant observation.
582 BP07_325_9704EN
Operation
" Extend the boom to bring the last arm approximately 1.5−2 m
from the stationary delivery line.
" Connect the delivery hose and the fixed delivery line using a
SKH attachment coupling. Use an A seal as the seal.

Operation
5.9 Cleaning Concrete leavings that are deposited inside the delivery line or pump
unit can cause damage, will accumulate and reduce the cross−sec
tion. Therefore, it is essential that these parts are thoroughly rinsed if
you wish to be able to start pumping without difficulty on the next
job.
Cleaning instructions
Note
Only use cold water at a maximum water pressure of 5 bar for clean
ing all painted surfaces in the first four weeks of using the machine.
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents. The paint is not fully
cured until after this period and you will then be able to use steam jet
equipment or other devices.
Never use sea water or other water containing salt for cleaning pur
poses. You must rinse off any sea water that gets on the machine.
Lock the remote control units away in the driver’s cab during clean
ing operations. The remote control units do not have a watertight
casing. Execute the machine functions required during cleaning
operations from the control cabinet.
584 MP07_060_0107EN
Operation
Leavings You should always find an appropriate use for the leavings to help in
environmental protection.
Environmental protection
The leavings should be used on the construction site. The leavings
should be used as building rubble or be recycled if this is not
possible.
Caution
You must fold the arm assembly as described in the Driving posi
tion" section if you decide to raise the rear of the machine to push a
wheelbarrow beneath the hopper opening.

Operation
5.9.4 Compressed air Pushing the concrete forwards out of the delivery line by letting the
cleaning rotor pump run slowly is the same as cleaning with compressed air.
Danger
There is an increased risk of accident when cleaning with com
pressed air. The cleaning operation must only be carried out as
described below by a subject expert or under his supervision.
Putzmeister accepts no liability for damage caused by incorrect im
plementation of compressed air cleaning. All persons participating in
the cleaning operation must be instructed in the safety regulations.
You must observe the following rules without fail when you use com
pressed air to clean out the delivery line:
Single pipes and short pipe runs up to 10m in length must not be
blown through with air.
No delivery hose or end hose may be fitted to the end of the deliv
ery line.
A catch basket must be fitted to the end of the delivery line.
The concrete must be able to escape freely from the end of the
delivery line.
No persons may be present in the area 3m around the delivery
line, at the end of the delivery line and in particular in front of the
opening of the catch basket.
The boom position must be selected such that any concrete that
might be forced out of the catch basket cannot injure any persons
or cause damage.
The sponge ball or the plug used to force the concrete out must
be of sufficient diameter for the delivery line to be sealed to the
rear when the sponge ball or the plug is caught in the catch
basket.

Caution
As soon as the wash−out sponge arrives in the catch basket, the
delivery line is sealed back to the hopper. This causes the pressure
in the delivery line to build. You must switch the rotor pump off
immediately the wash−out sponge arrives in the catch basket to
ensure that no damage is caused to the rotor pump.
Danger
No−one may be present around the catch basket during the washing
out operation as there is a risk of injury from ejected concrete.
" Keep the catch basket under observation and switch the pump
off as soon as the wash−out sponge arrives in the catch
basket.
" Open the dump cocks on the catch basket and allow the
compressed air to vent.
" Switch pump over to reverse pumping and suck the wash−out
sponge back through the delivery line.
" Repeat the washing out procedure to ensure that the delivery
line is metallically clean on the inside.

pressure rollers The distance between the pressure rollers and the tube bearing
surface in the rotor housing must always be set precisely to the gap
specified. You will find the maintenance intervals in the maintenance
summary at the start of this chapter.
Note
If the gap is too great, the pump tube is not compressed completely
and a sand blasting effect" may be set up, severely abrading the
inner surface of the pump tube.
If the gap is too small, the pump tube is squeezed too heavily. The
steel fabric in the pump tube is bent too far and can break.
You can test the gap without dismantling the rotor pump by means
ofa sponge ball test". This is done by forcing a medium hardness
sponge ball through the delivery line in the direction of pumping. If
the gap is too great, air will be heard escaping from the pump tube
and the sponge ball will exit the delivery line under no pressure.

summary at the start of the chapter.
Caution
Extreme demands are made on the pump tube. Use only original
Putzmeister pump tubes as replacements to ensure a long service
life.
Lubricate the pressure rollers before fitting the new pump tube. The
lubrication nipples are on the front and reverse of the pressure
rollers.

WK06_030_0308EN 1
Note
To change the pump tube, you will have to draw the old pump tube
out of the rotor pump and draw the new pump tube into the rotor
pump.
You can use the rotor pump’s rotating movement to do this. The
pressure rollers roll over the pump tube in the opposite direction
tothe direction of rotation of the rotor.
If necessary, change the direction of rotation of the rotor pump to
allow you to draw the pump tube in or out completely.
Danger
Risk of injury by crushing and shearing caused by moving machine
parts.
Never reach into the rotor pump assembly opening when the pump
is in operation.
Do not place any object or tools in the rotor pump assembly opening
when the pump is in operation. These objects may be trapped by the
rotor and become entangled in it. They might then hit you or be torn
from your hands and cause you injury.

10–005 Measuring the wall This maintenance card describes how to measure the wall thickness
thickness (Machines of delivery lines. You will find the maintenance intervals in the main
without transfer tube) tenance summary at the start of this chapter.
Note
Delivery lines are subject to constant wear. Measurement of the wall
thickness is particularly important before starting on major contracts.
You will obtain reliable results for your measurements if you carry out
the test with the measuring device recommended by Putzmeister.
Danger of explosion
The delivery line can burst once it reaches the right concrete
pressure if the wall thickness of the delivery line has decreased
below the minimum required, particularly if a blockage has built up.
Caution
Only tap the delivery line with a piece of hardwood (hammer handle).
Otherwise, dents may be created and these will lead to more rapid
wear. In addition, the hardened layer of high wear resisting pipes
may flake off the inside of the pipe. The pipe can burst at points that
have suffered heavy wear.

11000101
Straight pipes Uniform wear can be achieved by regularly rotating the straight
delivery pipes through 120°.
The minimum wall thickness for straight delivery pipes is shown in
the following graph.
Delivery line bends Uniform wear can be achieved by regularly rotating the delivery line
bends through 180°. The wear on the external radius of an elbow is
greater than that on the internal radius or on straight pipes. You
should, therefore, take special care when measuring the wall thick
ness of the external radius of an elbow.
The minimum wall thickness for bends is shown in the graph below.

676 WK10_005_9405EN
Maintenancecard

Page 3 of 4
Measuring Follow the operating instructions supplied with the measuring device
when carrying out measurements. Do not measure the wall thickness
of the delivery line at just one point, but around the entire circum
ference of the delivery pipes.
The minimum wall thickness is shown in the graph below.
Caution
Pipes and elbows must be replaced as soon as the wall thickness
has declined to the value for the minimum wall thickness.
Putzmeister accepts no liability if the wall thickness is less than the
minimum wall thickness.
Note
As a rule it is possible to continue pumping with a concrete pressure
lower than that shown in the graph.
We should, however, draw your attention to the fact that the delivery
line is subject to varying loading as a result of the dynamic loading
during pumping. There is no general method for calculating the mini
mum wall thickness for this loading, which depends on the individual
circumstances, and so the delivery line can also burst at a concrete
pressure which is assumed still to be permissible.

high−pressure water pump.
Caution
Make sure that the high−pressure water pump is depressurized and
empty of water before undertaking any maintenance work.
Check whether the pressure gauge shows that there is no pressure
in the high−pressure water pump. Dump the pressure in the high−
pressure hose by operating the gun.
Danger
Check all quick−release unions and quick−release couplers regularly
for tightness and leaks. No air may enter the system. There is a risk
of severe water hammer.
Check the high−pressure hoses for damage or wear.
You must carry out a thorough inspection of the water system on a
regular basis.
Note
Use the oil inspection glass to check the oil level in the high−pres
sure water pump before each use. If necessary, top up the oil.
0.3litres of oil with an oil viscosity conforming to SAE30 is required
to fill the oil reservoir completely.
Carry out the first oil change after approximately 50 operating hours
and then after every 500 operating hours.

tion system. You will find the maintenance intervals in the mainten
ance summary at the start of this chapter.
Note
Use a grease with the marking K2K in accordance with DIN51502,
NLGI Class2.
Lubrication intervals You should grease the lubrication points daily, unless a different in
terval is specified. You should apply the grease until you can see it
escaping.

25–001 Replacing the delivery line This maintenance card describes how to replace the delivery line
and its seals. You will find the maintenance intervals in the mainten
ance summary at the start of this chapter.
These comprise:
− bends;
− straight pipes of uniform length (maximum 3 m);
− adapter pipes (straight pipes manufactured individually for each
arm package in order to fit the delivery line to the arm lengths).
Wall thickness Measure the wall thickness of the delivery line to determine which
pipe sections need to be replaced.
Maintenance card: Measuring the wall thickness
The starting points for laying the pipe on the boom are the hinge
pivot points. The straight sections of the delivery line run from pivot
point to pivot point. They are no more than 3 m long. The delivery
line is matched to the arm length concerned by means of the
adapter pipes.
The length of the pump−boom delivery line is also adapted by
means of adapter pipes.

Ordering The length of the adapter pipes differs according to the machine and
boom. For re−ordering purposes, you should take the lengths and
location of all the adapter pipes on your machine from the adapter
pipes plate next to the rating plate or from the following spare parts
sheets:
− Boom delivery line: Spare parts sheet group 25.0
− Pump−boom delivery line: Spare parts sheet group 25.3

Caution
You must not exceed the delivery line wall thickness specified on
therating plate and in the machine card. The additional weight can
impair the machine’s stability.
Note
Should you wish to re−equip your machine to a delivery line of
greater wall thickness, the machine’s stability will have to be
recalculated and checked and approved by an authorized inspector.
Untensioned The boom delivery line must be fitted with the arm assembly fully
assembly relieved of tension:
− the arm assembly is not under tension in the transport position if
each arm is lying freely on the rest provided for this purpose;
− the arm assembly is not under tension when unfolded if each arm
is supported.
Caution
If the tension on the arm package is not fully relieved during
assembly, stresses may occur in the delivery line on movement of
the placing boom and consequential damage may be caused to the
pipe brackets and to the placing boom. Furthermore, the boom may
swing up and down causing the end hose to swing and strike out
during pumping operations.

Seal C seals (triple−lip seals) are used where the delivery line runs in a
straight line and there is no rotational movement. The 4 mm clear
ance is created automatically.
Caution
No triple−lip seals (C seals) may be used in the pivot joints in the pipe
bends.
Coupling Couplings with lever closures must be secured with a spring clip.
