That the 70m reaches the same as a 65m with the outrigger spread and the reach over the cab. So what is the purpose of a 70m? Go figure this one out and then tell me the logicts of this one.

The 70m reaches 16.5 feet further... UP

Thats it.

Did you know that it costs the same for

2 - KCP 65m pumps

or

1 - 70m pump

go figure???

before we bought our 61sx we were comaring it to the p**** 63 and the outrigger spread I think was a little bigger on the 63 and the distance between the pump and the cab is a couple feet difference from the 61 the only way the 63 would be better was if we were going to be pumping straight up all the time. If we were to pump over the side or over the cab the distance would have been the same as the 61sx

bri,

why do you care what they say, it dosnt make you any. I hope you dont think bigger is better atitude. i know a guy here that thinks he is 'the stuff' because he runs a big pump. wrong atitude too have.

 

why is evryone here always puting down and taking down the putzmiestr 70m. look at it this way ok fine the reach is the same over the cab. but do you want quality or somthing cheap from korea.

Korean or not...made in canada or not....my concord 65 is the best pump I have ever ran.   smooth boom, strong pump, and long reach make it an awesome machine.  Won't pump rocks like a schwing, doesn't cost like a putz, but runs like a dream.   WAY TO GO CONCORD.

Ya know all wear parts are compatable with putz.  I got a new putz tube and wear plate in mine.  original concord tube went about 85,000 yards with a little hard facing.  now ya want to talk cheap....Esser pipe and elbows

why did you not replace them with the concord wear parts if they are so good? besides that putzmiester and esser are the same company i got 82 thosand threw my last set of essr 900, what do u run? iwas speaking of scwing also as probably the best pump out there

i needed parts in a pinch and the putz dealer is down the road.  I ran schwings  for a dealer when I first started pumping.  From line pumps to the biggest we had was a 47m  for about 6 years and I swore I would never run anything different.   I would never down any pump.  they all amaze me, from small to big.  Like I said earlier a schwing will pump almost just rocks....strongest pump out there in my opinion.   But as far as operator/mechanic friendly I really like the concord.  I'm not trying to fight about it, just my opinion.  Just put it on the ground, Baby and get it home safe.  Is'nt that all that matters.

We are running ConForms TW325 through the boom and since febuary 18 when i replaced the 25,000 yard esser that was blowin holes at the rings, the ConForms has about 22,000 yards through it.   I checked the pipe while changing gaskets last week and it looks as if I may get another 15-20,000.

if there as cheap as what muddy says,then that just makes your profit margin higher,if you choose to use putz repacement parts smart move,because what you end up with is a pump engineered by putz for a lot cheaper price now all you have to do is use putz replacement parts and you have a good reliable machine for a lot cheaper price,now me myself I like the german rigs but I'm not opposed to trying a Korean or canadian pump if it pumps and its cheaper to buy that means more money for me and my operators so I guess its personal preference and its nothing to get in an uproar about,like was said earlier the goal is pumping in a safe and efficient way while at the same time trying to profit a little bit,putz,schwing,alliance,kcp,concord,pumpstar,cifa,reed,sany,does it really matter as long as they get the job done
