Does anyone know this? I have seen and heared about older models pumps that actualy had a hook mounted on the boom and could legaly be used as a crane to lift smaler things.. Anyone know who made these and when? Or are there even stil models that can be used like this?

there was a model , i do not know who made it , I think it was called a versa boom or something like that.

I have one Steve 4196186965

It is called a Versiplacer. Made by Elliot cranes who partnered with Putzmeister. 29M boom with a winch on the main to lift up 15000lbs. 360 degree articulating jib (it pumps around corners)  Jib has a winch on it rated at 500 lbs. The Jib also has a man basket attachment. Very fun to operate. 

Here's a good hoist 

Not too bad. Lot more wrenching on mixers. And trying to figure out that Concord. I'll give you a shout tomorrow 

Some just don t care!!!my fellow competitor who do whaever it takes to get work!!

I think I want one. But with a european chassis Are there stil any around in decent condition?

get with Chezpump they will mount it on anything you are willing to pay for

I'm pretty sure 2004 was the last year they made them. The one in the picture I ran, I picked it up in South Dakota. It had quite a bit of rust from the road treatments. From what I understand they were pretty much a Midwest commodity

This little city pump is equipped with a hoist. 

European model 

Yes! That is more like what I was looking for. I'm sure there are more normal boompumps that have hoist hooks legaly. I'm gona look in to it

Can anyone tell me more about this citypump with hoist machanism? Is that original putzmeister equipment or build by someone else? Can not find anything on their site )but must say Putzmeister has never been very impressive with its sites and giving complete information.) 

The only that is putz branded is pumpkit hopper boom piping. Its built on a Elliot crane boom an outrigger. Very versitle for low clearance unfolding height of 13'6"   but sub structure seems to be underbuilt for pumping abuse tho 

The Putzmeister m20-4 with a hoisting hook is part of the "sanima" option, making the truck more line friendly.   The side rack is removable and the hoist hook is meant to lift the hose rack off the side of the truck and onto the ground For easier loading and unloading.   The reach appears minimal but I've never seen one in person.

Yea i thought it would be something like that. But i'm sure i have heared about a pump in the 30m range that had a hook welded on the boom somewhere for lifting but it was a long time ago. Maybe it wasn't legal i don't know.
