I thought those Ford mounted 600 s were better and more dependable than the 700 s that followed. I liked the boom on my 740, but the works in a drawer was a mess.

first of all i am a sixteenyearold young man that hopes to run a pump in a year. how i got in to it is simple, my neighboor got married to a pumper he asked me if i wanted to go on a saturday and i said yes. i was hooked from then on. He at the time was running a schwing 1250 and to start out laboring for your first time on a pump that size is somethingelse. i love going pumping i am now on my last week of summer vacation and ive gone pumping with him every day this summer,and plan to go every saturday what can u say to someone who likes pumpn that much. weve gone on some crazy jobs but the main one was on avocadogrove.it was a 3 inch line mix a thousand feet out straigtht down a hill with all loose gravel any one else gone on a crazy job like that
