This Job was a bit of a walk in movie history. Mickey Roony's best budy Reo live in this area, he teaches reick horse ridding here, all sorts of pictures and almost like a walk back in time, but Reo is not rich, that's obvious. Just lives in a different time. Kinda sad from his hay days, a real cowboy living in his past it seems.

Do you have 1000 feet on line on it? LOL! You will have to let us know how the transition from the Concord to the Putz goes....

Set up, the Concord was fast, and possible to overide, the boom swing if really needed, Good and bad, probably mainly bad hehe. 

The Putz is a ferrari when it comes to pumping, just amazing. Booms are two different breeds. I have to dial in the Putz yet but seem to be getting smoother, not that I was wild just less cheak puckering when I turn it up a notch. 

Just having a 2012 model seems to be going to my head also, it just feels well adjusted and well thought out.

Oh yes the Putz outriggers do not come down near as far as the Concord's hmm we set up allot on 8 percent grades, this means more work, but probably a good reason they don't down as much. I am sure more things will come to mind over the next little while. I don't fix these machines, our shop has dollars and cents, on the two models. So Putz she is.

No dist to Concord, I actually had a chance to spec order the last machine, and she was good, and always seemed to pull off whatever we threw at her. I enjoyed the ride.

Far smoother strokes on the putz. Like a ferrari smooth and constant horse power. 

Others can claim meters pumped per hr, This will do what they claim, It does not have brain farts and quit or miss stroke.

Just a sense of control, I never felt before, or confidence in putting product through  this machine, you want it now it's there, slowing down it is positive and almost instant.

If you gave me the choise of a new concord or a new putz I might just take the concord. Just drove the new 42m putz we've got in (2010 model)   Just happened to stand pumping right next to a 41 cifa... What a difference in size. The cifa so compact and quick.. The putz is HUGE!!!

And than you would think that such a overdesigned pump would be very stable but I was not impressed at all.

And than this stuff with the display. If you want to swich on the vibrator on the hopper... First you have to wipe clean the display... Than push the button... Look down and scroll to ''vibrator''... Push the button again.... scroll to on..... push again....

On my old pump I would do it like this:   ....Flick a switch....

Is this improvement??? I think it will take me a very very long time to get used to all that BS!!! I just want a simpel pump that does the job smooth and quick and as little as possible handlings and as little as possible thing that can brake down...

Maybe my irritation was also boosted by the rediculous noise from the V8 mercedes motor... Useless....

So.. There I said it Wink I see a future for brands that keep their pumps simple...
