Trailer pump operator with a broke pinky,,, Pour It Out Adam

Very cool, sweet, good job. Man I love your hard hat. Thanks man for the picture. You have no idea how good that feels when you guy post safety pictures.

whats with the double ender

its not a boom truck and the line gets removed as the pour progresses 

no matter eugene its still a double ender take off the one behind it  and hook it back together laziness is not an excuse for not being safe, when we have system pours we have to take the de off and put the single ended on when the line is back to the boom and resume with the single end hose , it is no different on a linepump

exactly what Pudg said. And if the conctrator bitches throw the saftey speech at him.

Well now that the safety stuff is out of the way.That looks like a real finishers nightmare.We did something real close years ago,black concrete "YUK".Talk about a challenge,nice job for you and keep the pic's coming.

those are huge steps - just to add a little more work :)  the double ender, sime times it can seem like a real sob (tight courters, huge f$%kin steps)  but man, ive seen one hose whipin and for all the complaint about this crew,  thhank the Pump Gods they NEVER ran steal and chain on the end.  my ways are changed again.

Very True Boys,, the double ender is a No No,,,  But I train my operators right, They know when theyre sucking air!     and know to revers to keep air outta the line,,,   Hes A Damn Good Operator,,, 

 Those dont look like actual steps it looks like terraces in a theatre?

 I've been a such bitch about hang'n double enders that I started feeling like a hypacrit when I used them on line jobs. I started using a whip on the end after a finisher was killed last summer here in the Seattle area on a mez deck pour when a 4" DE hose jumped up and bit him in the head! It aint that hard, I've figured out that while you're clamping on the whip hose someone else ends up doing the break'n & shake'n for you. It worked into my routine just dandy. With hose off of a boom just kink it off back by the reducer to stop the flow to reconnect the whip.

Whip it, whip it good...  I'd rather crack that whip than someones head!

Good Advice TooTall,,,, I'll try to practice that, thank you

pour it out,

I am a pretty good operator 20 years no one on my job has left there goin to the ER but me due to a fellow coworker missing his mark in the piperack and it was 4 stitches in the head,and I also think I am a pretty good operator myself with years of exp. and it can happen to anyone,my point is he can be all that and a bag of chips and shit can happen,he looks very young, not meaning he cant be young and good,but he doesnt have experience on his side, that DE is a risk no matter how good we think we are, not ragging just discussing, good luck.

good advice pud

take it from a line pumper gone boom pumper,and lately back on line,always use a whip.

i know  its tedious and the guys on the job are always in a hurry, but when u tell them its the difference between life and death, and maybe theirs, they'll start to listen.

and if they dont just tell them what i say "thats how us proffesionals work, period.
