It is not an either or deal, but you could have at least put a safety pin in the 4" clamp. What I mean to say is that you SHOULD do both - pin clamp and strap. To do neither because you could not do bot his spurious at best. Nice looking unit, be CAREFUL out there ;~) |

toper good pic. must be nice to pump in the sun. first hand experice, that strap saved MY head twice in one day. thank you fibre metal, 8 point hard hards. always use safty pins. make you keep your clamps clean and will significantly decrees this... blown clamp was the caption. sorry for the gore. this is the reality of prevented accidents. toper keep postin your pic. the more we know, the safer we are. your truck gets you to and from the site. if you have to setup a little back and use a hose, it sucks but better then being on the side of the highway at 2000h. nice unit! |

If you dont have a strap/sling, chances are you DO have the supplied cable directly attached to the tip section. Loose the reducer, put on your 5" or 41/2" whip with the cable choked to the hose. Explain the situation or simply tell'em your reducer is shot or your 4" whip has a flapper inside of it. Or my personal favorite "It is a 4" ID hose with 1" thick rubber for longer life and durability!" I have yet to see a pour cancel due to an operator being safe? Should they continue to piss & moan ask them... "Would you like me to call my Mom to come and run the hose for you?" (last resort ofcourse) |
