BEACAUSE IT SAVED MY BACK FOR A FEW MORE YEARS.

concord fuckin rules,  i hope they come out with a 38m 5 section booms.  glorified line pump but any hose the boom cut was one less hose to drain which added up FAST.   it was a sad to leave this girl behind but gotta go where the work is....

If you thinks the Concord is something you really need to check out the 31M Cifa Metro.   No other machine out there like it...

I would have thought some of those set ups were line pump only......which is what i like to see being thats all we run, you sure did some  great thinking to make that boom work on every job. GREAT JOB with a nice looking pump.

Man thats a serious display of skills , I really like a lot of those pictures, look like you really know how to run that machine, with that being said , some of those pics , and I am saying this not to blast you , just from one operator to another , dude stay away from those powerlines , we are all human , we make mistakes, machines break , shorts in remotes , no concrete is worth killing yourself or worse some innocent hoseman, again it takes a lot of skill to do whats in those pictures and I am in awe of your talent and the abilities of you and that machine, but just because you and the machine will do it , doesnt meen you should , I want to hear of the great things you have done, not the one mistake that costs lives, again not blasting you ,just showing my concern.

Thank you for the comments.


beast no ones concern is bigger then mine.  i have an absolute fear of power lines and electricity.  there are NO BREAKS when a power line is within reach of the boom.  had plenty of job turned to straight line to the anger of the cutumer and dismay of the crew.  i was VERY fortunate that Astra took care of their pumps, extra care to the pump i ran and even more fortunate no incendent/breaks down happened.  Though luck and fortune only last for so long....so im quite happy the nearest power line has been 2.5km away from me the last two years.

 

NEVER pluged in the boom on the prime or pumping.  5-4 reducer once in a while on the prime and the odd fin chunck pumping.  honest truth.  and to get grout is like trying to get a raise.  suck back two spongs every job.  16cell has a pic of a sweet setup that i stole from him.

hey bud those pics show exactly what that 5section can do. we have 2 styles of 5sections out here in sask and that one is by far the best. it slays the schwing telescope boom. i now have some new ideas for shit due to these pics.
