You remind we of myself when I younger and stronger. Not asking for help in these heavy and large parts. But I can tell now what damage I done to my back and other parts of the body back then. When you get my age (80) spend must of my life working on large trucks and dossers I feel the pain now. Have fun and ask for help
Was trying to figure out how that pump dealt with rocks. Found a Reed Pump tear down video with everything explained. He used a cherry picker to save his back. Then RUclips offered an inventors three trapezoid hole valve with a complicated timed hydraulic valve body that pushed both rams out for 25% of their stroke through two of the discharge holes then one ram was zipped back to make a full stroke. His demo pump put out a steady stream with no hose movement. Hmmm. Having been a Machinist mate in the US Navy (lots of pumps on ships), a retired farmer, heavy equipment operator, computer hobbyist and an automated packing machine technician mechanical and electronic devices of all type intrigue me. Thanks for exposing me to something I never really knew about.
Man , I must say I watch you and I see the passion for pumping in you just like I have since I started pumping in 1995 till today. i have started to look for purchasing the new sp 500 and came across your amazing video , I love your passion man keep rocking and thank you for making these videos. when you come to LA send a message. Stay safe
Nice video. Step by step is always awesome. One thing, I would have used thread locker for the bolts due to the vibration instead of grease. Over all it was very educational. keep doing your thing. Love all your videos so far.
Watching your disassembly it would seem necessary to KEEP a backup inventory of Parts that need the most frequent replacement due continuous usage during the warm weather months ! Great video !
Rcp 916 Thank you so much! I’ve been very fortunate in my life. But it all ties back to not being afraid of working hard and long hours. Plus faith in our God.
I really enjoy all your videos and i take lots of things to learn more .. thank you very much.. just one thing i noticed on minute 20:30 is the kinder seal you placed to the wrong side... i really respect you on all but i notice this little detail thank you.
If working space isn't an issue you might try backing the pickup up to the hopper assemble, then roll it off onto the tail gate, just a thought. I'm a firm believer in working smarter not harder. For the o rings use Magic Lube vs grease. Grease is a petroleum base product and will attack neoprene causing premature failure. Really enjoy your vids.
Harbor freight is your friend! Gotta get you one of them flat bed roller carts where the table lifts up with a hydraulic jack. Super handy and a even a cherry picker. Sometimes harbor freight tools can surprise you but most of it is crap 😜😂
Rcp 916 that cordless impact wrench I use came from there. I do buy some stuff from there. I just try to keep an open mind that it might not last very long. But I’ve been impressed with the impact wrench.
That Shcwing is pretty nice man thanks for the video. I’d say just by watching the mechanics procedure of this video opened my eyes to the possibility of something other then Putzmeister. I’m in the market at the moment for a new line pump but I want a PTO pump next I may have to take a look at Schwing. I tell you what though. Taking the swing tube out of a Putz is a BITCH! this looks GRAVY in comparison. In my honest opinion there’s only 3 options when it comes to concrete pumps. Putzmeister, Schwing & Reed.
Rcp 916 I agree 100%. If I hadn’t of tried to take a short cut I would have been done 30 min faster. I expect them to come out with a version of the putzmeister if they already haven’t.
It usually takes twice as long for our mechanics to do routine repairs and service on Putzmeisters due to the fact that Putz wear parts usually have to be chiseled, cut or melted out (They stay in service longer than Schwings so they rust in place) . Schwings wear parts are designed to be replaced more frequently, and MUCH more easily, definitely the mechanics friends. Plus Schwings hold their value. We have a 1998 Schwing BPA 500 that we rebuilt selling for $28k. schwingpartsstore.com/used-concrete-line-pumps/ Only reason we aren't running it in our fleet is because California is dumb and we can't.
Could you use a ratchet strap to cradle the inlet half of the valve while guiding the back to avoid taking off the hooper? The hopper looks like a two man job by itself.
Been looking at this SP-500 and a BPA-500, I haven’t found much about the differences besides the years of manufacturing but in one of you’re videos you mentioned your BPA pump wouldn’t have pushed some mixes through. Which would you recommend?

My friend, Id like to ask you a question relating to the SP500. Weŕe trying to get creative here in the virgin islands for an upcoming project with a BPA500. If you were to hook up your trailer pump to one of your big pumps pipline through its deck(5 inch straight through), lets say the conorde, do you think your pump will be able to handle pushing through your pipeline? We´ve got a unique piece of work coming up that would involve running approximately 200 feet of pipes(not hoses) from a bPA500 THEN continuation the pipeline work by connecting the other end of the 200 feet layed down pipes onto a 24meter boom. Weŕe talking of a combined total of almost 300 feet of mixed horizontal and vertical pipes, all 5 inch (no reducer at the back of the trailer pump). Thoughts? we´re gonna start doing some testing very soon.
Lionel Jimenez I would have them bring you a yard of 5 sack grout to prime out with. Have 2 trucks back up to the hopper at the same time that way once you get the grout out you can introduce the concrete without stopping during prime out.
Hey Muddyfeet! I’ve done everything you’ve done here in the video. I’m trying to remove a worn out Cylinder tube. I’ve gotten as far as removing the face plate and removing the 8 bolts holding the cylinder to the water box and front frame. Where do I go from there? What way would I slide the tube out and will I need to remove the jacks? Thanks again hope to hear from you soon!
Leo Amador I have never removed the material cylinders before. I would remove the jacks though to give you better access. I would think removing the bottom part of the hopper would be next. Honest without me looking at it it’s hard for me to tell. What model are you working on?
I'd call them the Jesus Rods... Cause they keep the plate from slamming into either you and/or the ground followed by you screaming JESUS at the top of your lungs in pain and/or rage... Feel free to substitute Jesus with whatever word you're most likely to scream if/when something heavy and expensive to replace drops on you or the ground...
You need an engine hoist... northerntool.com. One of the needle cleaning tools would help you out with the cleaning... Strongway Hydraulic Engine Hoist with Load Leveler - 2-Ton Capacity, 1in.-82 5/8in. Lift Range Item# 46219 Ingersoll Rand Air Needle Scaler - 8 CFM, 4,600 BPM, Model# 125 tem# 1585560 Hope this helps

Thank you very much for this video. I'm not very good with the mechanical part of the pump so every video like this helps! Thank you
Jerald Chavez Thank you. I hope you can get something out of this.

I enjoy the concrete pumping industry
@@MuddyfeetConcretePumping keep rocking
Nice video. Step by step is always awesome. One thing, I would have used thread locker for the bolts due to the vibration instead of grease. Over all it was very educational. keep doing your thing. Love all your videos so far.
Grease works real well on the threads. Never had an issue with them backing out and they don’t rust.

Thanks for watching!

Barr B that is a good thought. Someone made a comment about an engine hoist that might work also. I’ll get to find out in a couple of more months.

Ilove watching your video....good job... 👍👍👍...
Thanks man!!!
Could you use a ratchet strap to cradle the inlet half of the valve while guiding the back to avoid taking off the hooper? The hopper looks like a two man job by itself.
Probably so
Muddyfeet, couldn't you use a piece of pipe in the cylinder as a guide for the manifold and then slide it back until the bolts and spline line up?
I’m not sure
Been looking at this SP-500 and a BPA-500, I haven’t found much about the differences besides the years of manufacturing but in one of you’re videos you mentioned your BPA pump wouldn’t have pushed some mixes through. Which would you recommend?
I’m not sure. The BPA I had had a air cooled Duetz engine. The SP I have has a caterpillar liquid cooled engine with more horse power.
Question is there rock in the concrete? I just can't imagine that sliding valve would work with rocks.... am I wrong?
Ivansgarage yes. The pump is rated for 1” rock in line pump mix.

Sounds like it would work. I would love to see video of that going on.
@@MuddyfeetConcretePumping will definitely get testing going. Give me your best advice on priming out
Lionel Jimenez I would have them bring you a yard of 5 sack grout to prime out with. Have 2 trucks back up to the hopper at the same time that way once you get the grout out you can introduce the concrete without stopping during prime out.

Leo Amador are you on Instagram?
It's interesting to see the mechanical side of it every once and awile. Kinda made my back hurt watching you wrestle those parts around. Be careful.
cliff beckwith yes they are heavy. I try and get a feel of what I’m picking up and use my legs as much as possible and not my back.
Muy bueno
AND how often do you have to do this job, can you say Harbor Freight engine hoist?
Ivansgarage I replace these once a year.
A hot day brings out the bull frogs????
Locust
I'd call them the Jesus Rods...
Cause they keep the plate from slamming into either you and/or the ground followed by you screaming JESUS at the top of your lungs in pain and/or rage...
Feel free to substitute Jesus with whatever word you're most likely to scream if/when something heavy and expensive to replace drops on you or the ground...
They do help a lot
