is that metal off the mixers fin? and by the way the suck back method you mentioned to me works a treat thanks :)

Nice pics brutha.  I'll say one thing you guys have some nice machines and sure know how to take care of em and keep em clean.  Very nice!

great pictue's cell... what size pump is in the first 3 picture's ..it looks like a 63putz but i notice'd it has a single first section ram as my 63 has twin rams on a first section..

Nice pics and pumps.
What's that metal piece? Looks like a piece of the cutting ring :D

Hey Cat, it's actually a Putz 58RZ which is on a very similar chassis to the 63... it's too bad we'll would never see a 63 on the road in our region because of the extra weight (I believe it's around 6000KG heavier than the 58)... The large chunk of metal is actually a piece of the cast iron in-set in which a man whole cover is seated... presumably from an overzealous loader operator back at the ready mix plant, and the elbow it's wedged into is located in the bottom of the turret (of course :( ) I showed up to help with pump disassembly/ reassembly/cleanup that night, and it sucked... big time!!!

nice pic's 16. pic #8 whats with wall panel under tands? 

the pump was setup on a slight uphill slope, because the back end was raised up off the ground, dunnage pads were placed under the rear axles to keep light contact between the rear tires and pavement...
