4. Scroll through the digital readout screen with the
scroll switch to go to screen 7 (Figure 29). This screen
will show the volume in strokes per minute.

5. Let the pump cycle until the hydraulic oil temperature
(Figure 30) is approximately 50° to 60° F.

6. The accumulator pressure gauge (Figure 31) should
read approximately 1750 pounds per square inch (psi).

7. Push the hopper remixer control lever downward
(Figure 32). The hopper remixer control lever is located
to the left of the hydraulic temperature gauge.

8. Observe that the blades (Figure 33) inside the hopper
are rotating in a clockwise direction (forward). To
make the blades rotate in a counterclockwise direction
(reverse), push the hopper remixer control lever
upward (Figure 32).

9. Place the volume control switch (Figure 27) in the
increase volume position (right) to increase the volume
to 25-30 strokes per minute. Slowly discharge the
concrete from the ready-mix truck into the hopper and
completely fill it. Keep the pump running continuously
until concrete is discharging at the end of the delivery
system. If the pump is stopped during this procedure,
a blockage may occur.

HOSe/LiNe BLOCKage
If hoses or lines are blocked for any reason, or if the
lines are kinked when starting up or during the pumping
cycle, the pump pressure could straighten out the kink
or force out the blockage. This rapid surge of material
could cause the lines to whip or move in a manner that
could cause injury to personnel.
