Hey Bull-frog, All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! That is some setup, i'm impressed. I'm sure the pictures do not give that slope any justice. To get a 46 meter in that position WOW. Was the footing also pumped? |

Yea J> You should have set the pump up and refused to pump the job unless they built scaffold and hand rails.

The joke is not really on you, it is on us. We are responsible for our actions. We can not be responsible for the actions of our customers. Honestly, if we folded it up and went home (perhaps we should) every time we showed up on a residential pour that had a scaffold problem, or some other customer created safety issue we would not pump very many house pours. The residential construction market is very lax on their safety. The pump still must observe all proper procedures; we have that responsibility to our selves, customers and co-workers. It is a piss poor system; but like blowing out with air in Australia, it is the system that we have. It is good that you are required to leave such jobs. |

I would of been scared to death to swing out over them out riggers. Looks like a bad game of JENGA getting ready to happen. Like I say "LOOKS LIKE YOU GOT AWAY WITH ONE". When you got done did you have to be pulled up the hill. I doubt that rig would back up it by its self. |

Because I consider that a top heavy unsafe setup, especially on the left side. If that pump shifts or rocks because of pumping it could roll the 6x6's right out from under the outrigger. If the pictures serve me right it looks like you had plenty of boom left. I would of pulled down half as far so I wouldn't had to jack the front up so high. If they had to drag 10-15 ft so what, it's alot safer. You can probably get away with that 99 times out of 100 but is it worth it? Another question, do you carry a laser range finder? I have one so I know exactly how far I need to be away from the pour to reach everything. Don't get mad at me it's just my opinion and personal preference, but what do I know? |

That wasn't directed toward you Vasa. By the way I use my range finder before I set up on every job that is in question on reach. I have to admit I am spoiled by it. I don't know what I would do if my battery went dead. HA Ha |
