WARNING WARNING
SILICOSIS WARNING
RESPIRATORY HAZARDS
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials with silica in their composition may give
off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a
basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and
numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or
substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can
cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including
silicosis. In addition, California and some other
authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a
substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such
materials, always follow the respiratory precautions
mentioned above.
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and
other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes
containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal
injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are
unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular
process and/or material being cut or the composition of
the tool being used, review the material safety data
sheet and/or consult your employer, the material
manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as
OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous
materials. California and some other authorities, for
instance, have published lists of substances known to
cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful
effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where
possible. In this regard use good work practices and
follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or
suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade
associations. Water should be used for dust
suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the
hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot
be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should
always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for
the materials being used.

3. By getting a rock pocket, such as mixer tailings, into the
pump valve. This rock pocket will have an insufficient
coating of mortar and the mix will not be plastic enough
to allow the valve to operate or the mix to move in the
line.
CONCReTe Mix DeSigN
Mix design is most important to achieve maximum
pumpability. Pumpability is affected by, among other
factors, the type and gradation of aggregate used. Natural
aggregates make a more workable mix and pump more
readily than crushed aggregates. A blend of natural and
crushed aggregates will produce a workable mix. The
type and gradation of aggregates is equally important
for workability as the size and percentage of coarse
aggregates in the mix.
4. Through excessive bleeding.If the mix is short or fines,
but the sand is otherwise fairly well graded, bleeding
will not normally create any problems as long as the
pump continues operation. But, if the pump is shut
down, bleeding can result in a loss of lubrication and
blocked erratic flow.
The term “aggregates” describes all of the solid materials,
from the largest rock to the smallest grain of sand,
contained in the concrete mix.
The above are bad concrete practices, regardless of how
the mix is to be placed. But, these points do show that
special mixes are not always needed, within limits, for
pumping concrete. Good aggregate gradation is most
important to pump concrete the maximum distance.
Concrete mixes with a consistency as dry as one-inch
slump and as wet as ten-inch slump have been pumped;
but for maximum efficiency from the pump, a slump ranging
from two to six inches will produce a more workable mix
than one that contains more or less water.
The use of admixtures can have a beneficial effect on
pumpability. Most of the dispersing agents will fatten,
retard bleeding, and increase workability.Thus, the average
concrete can be pumped for appreciably longer distances.
Air entraining agents will also improve workability, although
they cannot be used as a substitute for good gradation of
the aggregate.
The principle of concrete pumping is based on self-
lubrication. As it moves through the transfer line, the
concrete takes the shape of a plastic cylinder. It is forced
through the transfer line on a film of mortar that is self-
troweled to the service of the transfer line around its full
periphery by the slug of concrete itself.
Pumping will not appreciably affect the final air content of
the mix. High-early cement tends to give a more readily
pumpable mix with superior water retaining qualities.
However, if delays are likely to occur, extra care must be
exercised due to the faster setting time over regular cement.
A slump rating should be used with discretion; it is not
always a real indication of the pumpability of the mix. The
concrete may be workable in the sense that it will readily
flow into place, but the same mix may not respond to
pressure.
The Mayco LS600P will pump a wide variety of concrete
pump mixes.But, there are guidelines that must be followed.
Use this information in conjunction with the Operation
section of this manual.
Overly wet mixes tend to separate. In addition to affecting
the strength and quality of the concrete, the delivery
system will not tolerate separation. Overly dry mixes are
similarly unsatisfactory if they lack plasticity and tend to be
crumbly. To be properly pumped, the mix must be able to
continuously coat the inside of the line with a lubricating
seal of mortar.
There are four ways in which this seal can be lost:
1. By pumping excessively wet mixes which do not have
enough cohesion to hold together.
2. By pumping harsh undersanded concrete with poorly
graded aggregates which can jam together when the
pressure becomes too great for the insufficient amount
of sand to hold the aggregates apart.

RegiONaL DiffeReNCeS
In addition, this Mayco Concrete Pump can be used to
pump a large aggregate hard rock as follows:
Concrete is made by mixing locally available rock and sand
with cement and water. For this reason there are great
differences in the pumpability of concrete from one region
of the country to another.
„ Pea rock (1/2" minus) pump with mixes being as low as
30% rock and 70% sand. (reference maintenance for
recommendations on cleaning the pump.)
„ Shortening pea rock when used with an air compressor

It is impossible to define a specific mix for each region that
the concrete pump be will working in.Therefore, the mixes
listed in Appendix - Concrete Mix Information will provide
a basic guideline for establishing the proper mix design
for your area.

Use this information to specify your requirements to your
local ready-mix batch plant, contractor and civil engineer.
It may take minor adjustments to make a mix pumpable,
so you should explain your needs.
Remixtures
Remixtures that are designed into the concrete mix by

percentage of fines, ASTM C33 spec.
2. MBvR — Air entraining, acts as a lubricant.
3. Sufficient cement to produce the required design
strength of the concrete and provide the lubricating
binder to pump the concrete through the delivery
system.
3. Calcium Chloride — Commonly referred to as C.C.,
is used as an accelerator. When pumping a load with
calcium chloride, it is recommended that you wash out
if the waiting time between delivery trucks becomes
too long.
Use a minimum of:
„ 500 lbs. of cement/cu yd for 2500 p.s.i. concrete after
28 days.
4. Super Plasticizers — Acts as an accelerator. The
concrete will look very wet after the super plasticizer
is added, but will begin to set up very fast. Wash out
immediately if you do not have a truck waiting. Super
plasticizers are used mainly on commercial jobs.
„ 530 lbs. of cement/cu yd for 3000 p.s.i. concrete after
28 days.
„ 600 lbs. of cement/cu yd for 4000 p.s.i. concrete after
28 days.
5. Red Label — Acts as a water retarder and an
accelerator. Red label will be used mainly on
commercial jobs.
4. Admixture pump-aid if necessary.
6. Fly Ash — Is used to help increase the strength of the
concrete and decrease the cement content per yard.
This is one of the most common admixtures used.
5. The proper amount of water to make a workable slump
and plasticize the mix.
NOTICE
All admixtures will be shown on the redi-mix concrete
ticket. Before starting the pumping job, ask the driver of
the redi-mix truck to see the concrete ticket and note the
admixtures that exist and take the proper action.

Downhill Pumping
NOTICE
Downhill pumping can be a difficult procedure on some
jobs.The slurry procedure would be the same as explained
Priming The Pump With Slurry Mixture section of this
manual.It is suggested that a sponge approximately 2”x 4”x
6” in size be placed in the hose before the start of pumping.
It is strongly recommended that steel pipe be used on all
vertical pumping for safety and convenience.
Hose Pulsation
A slight pulsation of the hose will always be noticeable near
the pump.Excessive pulsation of the hose near the pump is
normally due to higher than average line pressures caused
by stiff, harsh mixes, or extremely long pumping distances.
Wet the sponge before placing it in the hose to keep the
slurry from running too far ahead of the concrete, which
will reduce the possibility of separation.When the pump is
stopped, the material can flow slowly down, due to gravity,
and cause the hose to collapse.
The use of 2 -1/2”I.D.hose in these extreme cases reduces
line pressures or the addition of slight amounts of water
to the mix, if permissible, will permit easier pumping. The
use of certain pumping admixtures may help.
When pumping is resumed, you can expect blockage at
the point of hose collapse.To prevent this from happening,
the hose can be “kinked off” at the discharge end when the
pump is stopped to prevent the gravity flow of the material
in the hose.
If excessive pulsation exists in the hose, it is advisable to
use burlap or some means of wear protection under the
hose at points where the hose may wear through the outer
cover; e.g. over forms, steel or sharp curbs.
The use of stiffer mixes when pumping downhill will
decrease gravity flow of the material in the hose and
will assure a smoother operation between the cam roller
bearing and cam plate. As with any job, make sure that
the hose and the couplings are in good workable shape.
Snap-Joint Couplings
When using Snap-Joint couplings with gaskets to join hose,
see that they are washed clean after each job. Keeping the
hose ends clean (heavy duty) is very important for the best
job setup. A thin coat of grease on the rubber gasket or
dipping both coupling and gasket in water before coupling
the hose will make for easier installation.
vertical pumping
When pumping vertically up the side of a building, above
40 feet, we would recommend the installation of steel pipe
securely fastened at intervals as necessary to support the
pipe. Ninety degree, long radius pipe sweeps should be
installed at the top and bottom of the steel line.
Use a 25 ft.hose, or short section, off the pump;and for the
balance of the horizontal distance to the vertical line, use
steel pipe.This type of installation has been satisfactory on
many jobs being pumped in excess of 100 feet high. Line
pressures are always less using steel pipe as compared
to hose.
When pumping vertically, using all hose, it is recommended
not to go higher than 50 feet with hose.The hose should be
tied off at intervals of 10 feet, if possible. Special attention
should be given when tieing the hose off at the top as
the hose will have a tendency to stretch when filled with
concrete.This will increase the possibility of a blockage at
the point where the hose is tied off. To avoid this, a long
radius of 90° elbow is recommended.The suggested place
to tie off is on the hose, under the clamp.

GEnERAL InfORMAtIOn
Fill the hopper with water after making sure that all sand and
rock have been removed from manifold. Operate pump at
full throttle and the 3/8" diameter hole restriction will create
sufficient back pressure to make thorough inspection of all
moving parts.
3. If it is necessary to wait 10 minutes or more for another
load of concrete, it is wise to start the pump and pump
6 or 8 strokes every 5 minutes to prevent setting of the
mix in the system. If waiting time is excessive, it would
be wise to wash out the pump and hoses and start over
when the new truck arrives.
The effects Of Heat and excessive Time On
Concrete:
4. When pumping stiff mixes and there is waiting time
between redi-mix trucks, it is advisable to add some
water to the last hopper of material and “hand mix” to
ensure an easier start with the following load.
Hot concrete, commonly referred to as a hot load, is
concrete that has been in the redi-mix truck in excess of 2
to 3 hours. On a hot day, this amount of time is even less.
5. When the pumping job requires a stiffer mix, the
following method is suggested for starting:Take a water
hose with a nozzle on it and apply water with a fine
spray to the concrete as it comes down the redi-mix
chute into the pump hopper after the slurry procedure
is completed and you are ready to start pumping.
A brief explanation of why heat and time affect concrete:
Concrete starts setting by drying up through a chemical
reaction. The catalyst to this reaction is heat. When
pumping a hot load, it is important to remember that when
you have to stop pumping for any reason, add water to the
concrete in the hopper and hand mix and move concrete in
the hose every 5 minutes. If the shut down time becomes
too long, wash out immediately.
6. Using this procedure will make it easier to pump
through the clean hose.
NOTICE
If it is necessary to wait 1/2 hour or more for another load
of concrete, to prevent setting of the mix in the system, it
is advisable to consider the following factors (A through D)
affecting the concrete:
Once the concrete has reached the end of the hose,
DO NOT apply any more water in this manner as this
procedure is used for starting only.
„ How old is the concrete?
7. Hose sizing is very important:We strongly recommend
on harsh mixes, vertical pushes, stiff concrete,
shotcrete, long pushes, that a 2-1/2” line be used as
far as possible.The advantages of using the 2-1/2” line
are improved pumpability, less pumping pressure and
less wear on the pump.
„ Is there an accelerator, calcium chloride, red label, etc.,
in the concrete?
„ The temperature of the day, 80, 90, degrees?
„ How much system you have out and how stiff was the
mix you were pumping?
8. Following the pump operation, proper wash out of all
materials or “build-up” within the pump manifold and
hoses will prevent problems when starting the next job.
preventing Mix Set-Up after pump Shutdown
When the pump is stopped for any reason during a pour;
e.g., moving hose, waiting for redi-mix truck, the following
suggestions are offered:
9. A thorough inspection of the drive components and
greasing of all bearings after each job will ensure
adequate lubrication and service to the pump which
is normally operating in wet, gritty conditions.
1. Leave the hopper full of concrete at the time of
shutdown. It is important not to let the redi-mix driver
wash too much water into the hopper, as this could
cause separation of the concrete in the hopper.
NOTICE
Over-greasing any bearing on your Mayco pump will not
damage the bearing.
2. If the shutdown period exceeds 2 to 3 minutes, turn
off the engine so the vibration does not separate the
mix in the hopper which can cause a blockage in the
manifold when the pump is started.

If a blockage occurs in a hose, walk the hose until you find
the point of trouble.The hose will be soft immediately past
the blockage. To clear the blockage:
ClearingThe System after Mix Set Up
If, for any reason, the mix should set up in the system, the
following procedure is suggested:
1. Disconnect the hose at the first coupling past the
blockage. Be careful when disconnecting hose. Hose
is under pressure. Hose could whip and cause severe
bodily harm.
1. Disconnect the hose from the pump and wash the
pump out immediately.
WaRNiNg
2. Elevate the hose at that point with the blockage area
hanging down.
Hose Line Pressure
When disconnecting hoses, use extreme CaUTiON.
The hose is under pressure.Hose could whip and cause
severe bodily harm.
3. Using a hammer, you can pound the downstream edge
of the packed area until it is free to flow. Shake all of
the sand and gravel out to the end of the hose.
4. Before reconnecting the hose, start the pump and
run a small amount of concrete out to the end of the
hose. This will assure that all of the separation is out
of the hose.
2. Reconnect the hose and fill the hopper with water.
3. Reconnect the hose and fill the hopper with water. DO
NOT try to push all the concrete out of all of the hose
lines at one time.
NOTICE
4. For example: If you had 200 ft. of system out, you
would disconnect each hose. Clean it out by pushing
water through the first hose connected the pump, then
continue progressing through all the hoses, until all the
system is clean.
Damaged hoses with internal restrictions can cause
blockages.
Clearing Shuttle Tube Blockage
5. If waiting time is excessive, it would be wise to wash
out the pump and hoses and start over when the new
truck arrives. This can be avoided by being observant
to the pump and system, also taking into consideration
the above actors (A through D) affecting the mix.
The shuttle tube is plugged if volume at the discharge end
of the hose stops and the hydraulic oil pressure gauge
reads 4400 psi or more.
To clear a plug in the shuttle tube, great care must be taken
as a dangerous condition will exist from pressure build-up
inside the shuttle tube.With the shuttle valve, the concrete
can be pumped in reverse. Use the following procedures
to clear the shuttle tubes.
Clearing Concrete Blockage
NOTICE
If you repeatedly pull the throttle all the way out and try
to force your pump to push through blockages due to
separation of material in the hose or manifold, you will
soon have breakdowns and costly repairs which are not
covered under warranty.
WaRNiNg
Joint Clamps
DO NOT open any of the delivery system joint clamps
during operation.The clamps are under pressure.The
clamps, if opened during operation could allow high
pressure material to escape and cause severe bodily
harm.
If a blockage occurs, find where it is and clear it before
further pumping. DO NOT increase the engine speed to
clear the blockage. Increasing the engine speed will only
compound the problem.

6. Remove the reducer. From the discharge end, chip
the concrete out of the shuttle tube with the pry-bar.
If concrete cannot be loosened from the outlet of the
shuttle tube, remove the clean-out plug on the bottom
of the hopper to discharge the concrete.
Reverse Pumping Procedure
1. Switch the pump into reverse. With pump speed at a
medium-slow (approx. 12 strokes per min.) try to pull
the “pack” back into the hopper with 5 or 6 reverse
strokes.
7. Chip the blockage out with the pry-bar.
8. Flush the shuttle tube with water.
2. Remix the concrete in the hopper.
3. Switch the pump into forward.If it is still plugged, repeat
“Reversing” procedure three times.
9. Before resuming operation of the pump, perform the
“Reverse” Pumping Procedure to relieve pressure on
the shuttle tubes.
4. If concrete still does not move, proceed to the Shuttle
Tube Inspection Procedure.

DANGER
Accumulator Pressure
Make sure the accumulator pressure
gauge reads ZERO psi. prior to
performing any maintenance or
inspection.You must follow lock
out-tag out procedures. Improper
accumulator pressure can result in
an explosion causing serious injury
or death.
1. Stop the pump. Turn off the engine.
2. The senior or most experienced operator must warn all
others to stand at least 20 feet away from the machine
and turn their heads to face away from the pump.
3. The operator will position himself beside the reducing
elbow at the pump outlet. Wearing safety glasses, slip
the end of a pry bar (24" length of reinforcing steel rod)
under the latch of the hose clamp and flip it up.
4. Carefully knock the end of the hose away from the
reducer.
5. Chip the concrete out of the reducer with the pry bar.

he following is a brief explanation of how the concrete
cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, shuttle tube, valves and
hopper work in sequence to pump concrete.
HIGH PRESSURE
TO TANK
OIL FROM PUMP
PROXIMITY
SWITCH
The hydraulic pressure is generated by a variable volume,
pressure compensated, axial piston pump that is driven by
a diesel engine. The rod sides of the drive cylinders are
hydraulically connected together creating a “slave circuit,”
which allows hydraulic oil to transfer from one piston to
the other.
HYDRAULIC
CYLINDERS
SLAVE
OIL
CONCRETE
CYLINDERS

The two part cycling sequence is initiated by an electrical
signal generated by two proximity switches activated by
the drive cylinder. The proximity switches are normally
open, magnetically sensing the movement of the main
drive cylinder.As the drive cylinder piston head passes the
proximity switch, an electrical signal is sent to the solenoid
operated pilot valve which in turn directs pilot oil to the four
valves controlling the drive cylinder and the shuttle cylinder.
PISTON

SHUTTLE
CYLINDER

SHUTTLE TUBE
SHUTTLE TUBE MOTION
A one-gallon accumulator assists the movement of the
shuttle tube. This circuit assures that the shuttle tube will
throw with the same intensity of each stroke regardless of
how fast the main drive cylinders are cycling.

TO TANK
Figure 4. Pumping Cycle 2
In the first cycle (Figure 3), hydraulic pressure is applied
to cylinder (B), causing the hydraulic piston, which is
connected to the concrete piston and piston cup, to
discharge concrete into the delivery line.
PROXIMITY

HYDRAULIC
CYLINDERS
SLAVE
OIL
As one cylinder is discharging concrete, the hydraulic
oil from the rod side (B) of the drive cylinders is being
transferred through the slave circuit causing the opposite
cylinder (A) to move back on the suction stroke, filling the
cylinder with concrete.
CONCRETE
CYLINDERS

PISTON
CUP

The shuttle tube is sequenced to pivot to each concrete
cylinder as the drive cylinders stroke to push concrete. As
the second cycling sequence begins (Figure 4), the shuttle
tube pivots to the opposite cylinder (A).
SHUTTLE TUBE
SHUTTLE TUBE MOTION
The hydraulic piston passes under the proximity switch
and sends pressure to the piston, causing it to stroke and
discharge concrete into the delivery line. Hydraulic oil is
transferred through the slave circuit to cylinder B, causing
it to start a suction stroke, refilling it with concrete. The
pumping sequence then repeats for the duration of the
operation.

OPERAtIOn
5. Place the direction control switch in the FORWARD
position.This will start the flow of the slurry to the hoses.
Hose Lubrication
Before pumping, it is necessary to lubricate the hose.
6. Keep the slurry flowing until most of it is pumped out.
However, make sure that some slurry is left on the
hopper when concrete is first discharged from the
ready-mix truck.
This procedure prevents separation and blockages in the
hose. Inspect the lines at all times to prevent problems.
Before concrete is discharged into the hopper, it is
suggested that 3 to 4 gallons of water be sprayed into the
hopper, followed by approximately 5 gallons of a creamy
cement and water slurry (1/2 bag of cement to 5 gallons
of water).
Pumping
WaRNiNg
Safety glasses and hearing protection
MUST be worn at all times when
operating the pump. Failure to follow
safety guidelines can result in serious
injury.
NOTICE
Getting the concrete to flow through the hose at the start
of the pumping cycle can be one of the most critical
operations of the pour.
NOTICE
Priming The Pump With Slurry Mixture
A well-planned location of the pump and routing of the
hose before starting a pour may save subsequent moves
throughout the job.
It is CRiTiCaL to the successful operation of a concrete
pump that the manifold and all delivery hoses, pipes and
elbows are coated with a film of lubrication BEFORE you
attempt to pump concrete.
1. Place the pumping control switch in the LOCAL
position (Figure 27) for normal pumping operation.
Failure to properly prepare the pump and system will result
in a “dry pack” of concrete, blocking the shuttle valve tube
or delivery line.

Cleaning the pump is a very important operation as it
determines how the machine will pump the next time it is
used.
Hydraulic Oil System Maintenance
NOTICE
This Mayco pump is equipped with an in-tank return
hydraulic filter with a 10 micron cleanable filter.The element
has been designed to remove all particles large enough to
cause wear and job break down. Under normal conditions,
we recommend replacement every 6 months.
NeveR use muriatic acid to clean the pump. Acid will
dissolve the chrome finish on material cylinder bore and
main hydraulic cylinder rods.
At the end of every pour, or because of long delays during
a pour, the pump and delivery system must be thoroughly
cleaned by removing all concrete material.
The most important factor to keep in mind is the effect of
cold weather on the hydraulic oil.The viscosity (thickness)
of the hydraulic oil will be much heavier.
1. Following the clearing concrete blockage operating
procedure, ensure that there is no blockage in the
hose and line or in the shuttle tube. If a blockage
exists, clear it.
ALWAYS run machine until oil temperature reaches a
minimum of 50°F. before pumping. Damage to the main
piston pump will occur if the machine is cycled too fast
before the oil temperature reaches the minimum of
50°F. Cycle the machine at 6-8 strokes per minute at
approximately 1/3 throttle.
2. Pump concrete until the opening of the concrete
cylinder intake in the hopper is visible.
3. Stop the pump.
In areas where the weather normally remains under 50°F.,
use Shell OilTellus 46 (or the equivalent).The above steps
must be followed or severe damage to the main axial piston
pump can occur.
4. Carefully disconnect the first hose joint at the shuttle
tube discharge elbow.
5. Add water to the hopper. Pump and flush clean the
entire hopper, shuttle tube and discharge elbow with
water.
1. When changing the hydraulic oil or topping off the
reservoir (capacity 50 gal/189 liters), use only the
following type hydraulic oil:
6. Scoop out 12 inches of concrete from the inboard end
of the delivery hose.“Cork screw” a 6" x 6" x 8" sponge
into the end of the first hose section. Reconnect the
hose to the discharge elbow.
„ Shell Oil Tellius 68
„ Mobil DFE 26
„ Texaco Rand HDC
7. Fill hopper with water. Pump until sponge and clean
water come out the discharge end of the hose and
line system.
NOTICE
DO NOT mix oil brands! This may impair quality.
8. When the pump has been used to pump aggregate
concrete or mixes with high fines content (60% or more
sand) there will be a tendency for hardened concrete
to build up on the inside surface of the shuttle tube.
Therefore, at the end of every such pour, after the pump
and system have been cleaned and the engine shut
off, remove all remaining concrete.
2. The following components should be greased daily,
hourly if necessary:
„ Main Hydraulic Cylinders (2 grease fittings)
„ Swing Axle Bushing (1 grease fitting)
„ Shuttle Cylinder (2 grease fittings top and bottom)
„ Discharge Nipple (3 grease fittings)
9. Use only a 2½" diameter clean-out hook when back-
pumping into redi-mix truck. Use a safety chain to
secure the clean-out hook to some solid part of the
mixer truck to prevent hook from jumping off of the
drum.Run the pump at 6 strokes per minute maximum
speed.

1. Start the engine and stroke the pump.The accumulator
pressure gauge (Figure 30) should read 1750 PSI.
Accumulator Circuit
DANGER
2. To determine the actual accumulator PSI, stop the
engine and observe the pressure gauge. As the PSI
reading slowly decreases, it will reach a point where
there will be a sudden drop in the PSI.The PSI reading
should be taken just prior to this sudden drop. If you
do not read 1100 PSI, the accumulator may require
charging or bladder replacement.
Improper accumulator charging
can result in an explosion causing
serious injury or death! Never
use oxygen or compressed air
to charge the accumulator! Only
qualified personal should perform
this procedure. Use only dry nitrogen to charge the
accumulator. Contact your Mayco service department
or your local Hydac representative for proper charging
procedure
Wear Plate and Cutting Ring
Due to the abrasive nature of concrete, it is normal for the
cutting ring to wear on its sides as it shears through the
concrete inside the hopper.The metal-to-metal friction and
the abrasiveness of the concrete will cause extreme wear
and reduce sealing capability between the cutting ring and
wear plate.
The accumulator circuit has two functions in the hydraulic
system.
„ The accumulator circuit furnishes the hydraulic pressure
to cycle the shuttle tube.
If the two components do not properly seat against each
other, slurry will pump into the hopper rather than out the
discharge line. See Figure 56. This condition can easily
be observed.
„ The accumulator circuit also furnishes the pilot pressure
necessary to activate the hydraulic system.
The accumulator circuit is equipped with a bladder type
accumulator (Figure 55) charged with 1100 PSI of dry
nitrogen. The accumulator stores one gallon of hydraulic
oil, which is, under 1750 PSI of pressure.
1. The sudden change of the level of concrete inside the
hopper during each pumping stroke
2. Concrete slurry squirting into the air from the hopper
(Volcano effect)
3. When the output volume at the end of the delivery line
decreases in pressure
4. Unusual frequent material packs in the Shuttle tube
It is important that the wear components be inspected
weekly for proper sealing. Failure to inspect will eventually
cause severe damage to the nun-plate and material
cylinders. Visually inspect wear plate and cutting ring to
ensure surfaces are sealed against each other.
Figure 55. Accumulator
When the pump cycles, a part of the stored oil is released
to the shuttle cylinder. This released oil pressure assures
the shuttle tube has enough force to shear the cylinder of
concrete passing from the concrete cylinder to the concrete
delivery line during the cycle phase.
If a deep groove or a wide space has developed on the
sealing surfaces, it is time for replacement. Due to the
motion of the shuttle tube, the cutting ring experiences
a quicker rate of wear as opposed to the wear plate. The
wear ring typically requires replacement two times per wear
plate (2 to 1). When replacing the wear ring, also replace
the rubber energizer ring.
Checking Accumulator Bladder Pressure
The normal accumulator charge pressure should be
approximately 1100 PSI. To check the accumulator
pressure:

„ The fluid level and cleanliness of the lubrication box.
„ The size and type of aggregate.
Cylinder Cup Replacement Procedure
„ The type of concrete being pumped.
1. Remove the two hydraulic hoses connected to the

It is time to replace the cups when increasingly large
particles of sand and cement pass into the lubrication box.
DO NOT allow the cups to become so worn that they begin
to pass lubrication into the material cylinders.
2. Remove the hopper discharge nipple and loosen sleeve
seal. Inspect and replace if wear is excessive.
If the liquid level of the lubrication box becomes to low, the
rubber cups will severely deform due to excessive heat.
Whenever replacement is due, both cylinder cups should
be replaced.
3. Remove the two tie rod nuts and the four eyebolt nuts
securing the hopper to the pump frame.
4. Using an approved lifting device, remove the hopper
using extreme care not to damage the hopper seal.
5. Start the engine and turn on the pressure test switch.
Cycle pump in reverse until hydraulic system obtains
maximum pressure, then turn pump and engine
off.
6. Remove ignition key and disconnect battery. Think
safety! Check the hydraulic gauges on panel and make
sure accumulator pressure reads zero. One piston
should be in the fully discharged position at the end
of the concrete cylinder.

The following trailer maintenance guidelines are intended
to assist the operator in preventive maintenance.
7. Repeat the above procedure on all brakes.
8. Lower the trailer to the ground.
TRaiLeR BRaKeS
Check the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir at least
every three months. If you tow your trailer an average of
1,000 miles per month in a hot and dry environment, you
must check the brake fluid level once a month. The brake
fluid reservoir is located on the tongue of the trailer.Always
fill with clean, uncontaminated DOT 4 brake fluid.
Properly functioning brake shoes and drums are essential
to ensure safety. The brakes should be inspected the first
200 miles of operation.This will allow the brake shoes and
drums to seat properly. After the first 200 mile interval,
inspect the brakes every 3,000 miles. If driving over rough
terrain, inspect the brakes more frequently.
Figure 60 below displays the major hydraulic brake
components that will require inspection and maintenance.
Please inspect these components as required using steps
1 through 6 as referenced in the “Manually Adjusting The
Brakes” section on this page. See Table 8 for Hydraulic
Brake Troubleshooting.
HYDRaULiC BRaKeS
If your trailer has hydraulic brakes, they function the same
way the surge brakes do on your tow vehicle.The hydraulic
braking system must be inspected at least as often as the
brakes on the tow vehicle, but no less than once per year.
This inspection includes an assessment of the condition
and proper operation of the wheel cylinders, brake shoes,
brake drums and hubs.
MaNUaLLY aDJUSTiNgTHe BRaKeS
Most axles are fitted with a brake mechanism that will adjust
the brakes during a hard stop. However, some braking
systems are not automatically adjusted by hard stopping.
These brakes require manual adjustment. The following
steps apply to adjust most manually adjustable brakes.
1. Jack up the trailer and secure it on adequate capacity
jackstands.
Figure 60. Hydraulic Brake Components
2. Be sure the wheel and brake drum rotate freely.
HYDRaULiC BRaKe aCTUaTOR
3. Remove the adjusting-hole cover from the adjusting
slot on the bottom of the brake backing plate.
The hydraulic brake actuator (Figure 61) is the mechanism
that activates the trailer’s brake system. This actuator
changes fluid power into mechanical power.Therefore, the
fluid level must be checked frequently to assure that the
brakes function properly.
4. With a screwdriver or standard adjusting tool, rotate the
starwheel of the adjuster assembly to expand the brake
shoes. Adjust the brake shoes out until the pressure
of the linings against the drum makes the wheel very
difficult to turn. Note:Your trailer maybe equipped with
drop spindle axles.See axle manual for your axle type.
You will need a modified adjusting tool for adjusting
the brakes in these axles. With drop spindle axles, a
modified adjusting tool with about an 80 degree angle
should be used.

tRAILER GuIDELInES
The following guidelines are intended to assist the operator
in the operation and handling of a trailer.
„ Shift your automatic transmission into a lower gear for
city driving.
Safety precautions should be followed at all times when
operating a trailer. Failure to read, understand and follow
the safety guidelines could result in injury to yourself and
others.Loss of control of the trailer or tow vehicle can result
in death or serious injury.
„ ALWAYS use lower gears for climbing and descending
grades.
„ DO NOT ride the brakes while descending grades, they
may get so hot that they stop working. Then you will
potentially have a runaway tow vehicle and trailer.
COMMON CaUSeS fOR LOSS OfTRaiLeR
„ To conserve fuel, don’t use full throttle to climb a hill.
Instead, build speed on the approach.
„ Driving too fast for the conditions (maximum speed when
towing a trailer is 55 mph).
„ Slow down for bumps in the road. Take your foot off the
brake when crossing the bump.
„ Overloading the trailer or loading the trailer unevenly.
„ Trailer improperly coupled to the hitch.
„ No braking on trailer.
„ DO NOT brake while in a curve unless absolutely
necessary. Instead, slow down before you enter the
curve and power through the curve.This way, the towing
vehicle remains in charge.
„ Not maintaining proper tire pressure.
„ Not keeping lug nuts tight.
„ DO NOT apply the brakes to correct extreme trailer
swaying. Continued pulling of the trailer, and even slight
acceleration, will provide a stabilizing force.
„ Not properly maintaining the trailer structure.
„ Ensure machine is towed level to tow vehicle.
TRaiLeRTOWiNg gUiDeLiNeS
„ Anticipate the trailer “swaying.” Swaying is the trailer
reaction to the air pressure wave caused by passing
trucks and buses.Continued pulling of the trailer provides
a stabilizing force to correct swaying. DO NOT apply the
brakes to correct trailer swaying.
„ Recheck the load tiedowns to make sure the load will
not shift during towing.
„ Use lower gear when driving down steep or long grades.
Use the engine and transmission as a brake. Do not
ride the brakes, as they can overheat and become
ineffective.
„ Before towing, check coupling, safety chain, safety
brake, tires, wheels and lights.
„ Check the lug nuts or bolts for tightness.
„ Check coupler tightness after towing 50 miles.
„ Be aware of your trailer height, especially when
approaching roofed areas and around trees.
„ Use your mirrors to verify that you have room to change
lanes or pull into traffic.
„ Make regular stops, about once each hour. Confirm
that:
„ Use your turn signals well in advance. Allow plenty of
stopping space for your trailer and tow vehicle.
• Coupler is secure to the hitch and is locked.
• Electrical connectors are secure.
„ Allow plenty of stopping space for your trailer and tow
vehicle.
• There is appropriate slack in the safety chains.
„ DO NOT drive so fast that the trailer begins to sway
due to speed.
• There is appropriate slack in the breakaway switch
pullpin cable.
„ Allow plenty of room for passing. A rule of thumb is that
the passing distance with a trailer is 4 times the passing
distance without the trailer.
• Tires are not visibly low on pressure.

for the use of your trailer. Again, be sure your hitch and tow
vehicle are rated for the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of
your trailer.
DRiviNg CONDiTiONS
When towing a trailer, you will have decreased acceleration,
increased stopping distance, and increased turning radius
(which means you must make wider turns to keep from
hitting curbs, vehicles, and anything else that is on the
inside corner). In addition, you will need a longer distance
to pass, due to slower acceleration and increased length.
WaRNiNg
Proper selection and condition of the coupler and hitch
are essential to safely towing your trailer. A loss of
coupling may result in death or serious injury.
„ Be alert for slippery conditions.You are more likely to be
affected by slippery road surfaces when driving a tow
vehicle with a trailer, than driving a tow vehicle without
a trailer.
• Be sure the hitch load rating is equal to or greater
than the load rating of the coupler.
• Be sure the hitch size matches the coupler size.
• Observe the hitch for wear, corrosion and cracks
before coupling. Replace worn, corroded or cracked
hitch components before coupling the trailer to the
tow vehicle.
„ Check rearview mirrors frequently to observe the trailer
and traffic.
„ NeveR drive faster than what is safe.
• Be sure the hitch components are tight before
coupling the trailer to the tow vehicle.
WaRNiNg
Driving too fast for severe road conditions can result in
loss of control and cause death or serious injury.
WaRNiNg
An improperly coupled trailer can result in death or
serious injury.
Decrease your speed as road, weather, and lighting
conditions deteriorate.
DO NOT move the trailer until:
Always check for local trailer tow speed limits in your
area.
• The coupler is secured and locked to hitch.
• The safety chains are secured to the tow vehicle.
• The trailer jack(s) are fully retracted.
WaRNiNg
Do not transport people on the trailer.The transport of
people puts their lives at risk and may be illegal.
DO NOT tow the trailer on the road until:
• Tires and wheels are checked.
• The trailer brakes are checked.
COUpLiNgTOTHeTOWveHiCLe
• The breakaway switch is connected to the tow
vehicle.
Follow all of the safety precautions and instructions in
this manual to ensure safety of persons, equipment, and
satisfactory life of the trailer. Always use an adequate tow
vehicle and hitch. If the vehicle or hitch is not properly
selected and matched to the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) of your trailer, you can cause an accident that
could lead to death or serious injury.
• The load is secured to the trailer.
• The trailer lights are connected and checked.
WaRNiNg
Use of a hitch with a load rating less than the load rating
of the trailer can result in loss of control and may lead
to death or serious injury.
If you already have a tow vehicle, know your vehicle tow
rating and make certain the trailer’s rated capacity is less
than or equal to the tow vehicle’s rated towing capacity. If
you already have (or plan to buy) a trailer, make certain
that the tow rating of the tow vehicle is equal to or greater
than that of the trailer.
Use of a tow vehicle with a towing capacity less than
the load rating of the trailer can result in loss of control,
and may lead to death or serious injury.
Be sure your hitch and tow vehicle are rated for the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of your trailer.

Drive slowly at first, 5 mph or so, and turn the wheel to
get the feel of how the tow vehicle and trailer combination
responds. Next, make some right and left hand turns.
Watch in your side mirrors to see how the trailer follows
the tow vehicle. Turning with a trailer attached requires
more room.
iNOpeRaBLe BRaKeS, LigHTS OR MiRRORS
Be sure that the brakes and all of the lights on your trailer
are functioning properly before towing your trailer. Check
the trailer taillights by turning on your tow vehicle headlights.
Check the trailer brake lights by having someone step on
the tow vehicle brake pedal while you look at trailer lights.
Do the same thing to check the turn signal lights.SeeTrailer
Wiring Diagram section in this manual.
Stop the rig a few times from speeds no greater than
10 mph. If your trailer is equipped with brakes, try using
different combinations of trailer brake and tow vehicle brake.
Note the effect that the trailer brakes have when they are
the only brakes used. When properly adjusted, the trailer
brakes will come on just before the tow vehicle brakes.
Standard mirrors usually do not provide adequate visibility
for viewing traffic to the sides and rear of a towed trailer.
You must provide mirrors that allow you to safely observe
approaching traffic.
It will take practice to learn how to back up a tow vehicle
with a trailer attached.Take it slow. Before backing up, get
out of the tow vehicle and look behind the trailer to make
sure that there are no obstacles.
WaRNiNg
Improper electrical connection between the tow vehicle
and the trailer will result in inoperable lights and can
lead to collision.
Some drivers place their hands at the bottom of the steering
wheel, and while the tow vehicle is in reverse, “think” of the
hands as being on the top of the wheel. When the hands
move to the right (counterclockwise, as you would do to
turn the tow vehicle to the left when moving forward), the
rear of the trailer moves to the right. Conversely, rotating
the steering wheel clockwise with your hands at the bottom
of the wheel will move the rear of the trailer to the left while
backing up.
Before each tow, check that the tail lights, brake lights
and turn signals work.
TRaiLeRTOWiNgTipS
Driving a vehicle with a trailer in tow is vastly different
from driving the same vehicle without a trailer in tow.
Acceleration, maneuverability and braking are all diminished
with a trailer in tow.
If you are towing a bumper hitch rig, be careful not to allow
the trailer to turn too much because it will hit the rear of the
tow vehicle.To straighten the rig, either pull forward or turn
the steering wheel in the opposite direction.
It takes longer to get up to speed, you need more room to
turn and pass, and more distance to stop when towing a
trailer.You will need to spend time adjusting to the different
feel and maneuverability of the tow vehicle with a loaded
trailer.
TRaiLeRviNTag
Because of the significant differences in all aspects of
maneuverability when towing a trailer, the hazards and risks
of injury are also much greater than when driving without
a trailer.You are responsible for keeping your vehicle and
trailer in control, and for all the damage that is caused if
you lose control of your vehicle and trailer.
Figure A below is a sample of the Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN)Tag which is typically located on the left front
of the trailer. See Figure B for location.
As you did when learning to drive an automobile, find
an open area with little or no traffic for your first practice
trailering.Of course, before you start towing the trailer, you
must follow all of the instructions for inspection, testing,
loading and coupling. Also, before you start towing, adjust
the mirrors so you can see the trailer as well as the area
to the rear of it.

To determine the “empty” or “net” weight of your trailer,
weigh it on an axle scale. To find the weight of the trailer
using an axle scale, you must know the axle weights of
your tow vehicle without the trailer coupled. Some of the
trailer weight will be transferred from the trailer to the tow
vehicle axles, and an axle scale weighs all axles, including
the tow vehicle axles.

TOWveHiCLe
The towing hitch attached to your tow vehicle must have a
capacity equal to or greater than the load rating of the trailer
you intend to tow.The hitch capacity must also be matched
to the tow vehicle capacity.Your vehicle dealer can provide
and install the proper hitch on your tow vehicle.
Figure B. VIN Tag Location
The trailer VIN Tag contains the following critical safety
information for the use of your trailer.
SUSpeNSiON SYSTeM
Sway bars, shock absorbers, heavy duty springs, heavy
duty tires and other suspension components may be
required to sufficiently tow the trailer and pump.
GAWR:The maximum gross weight that an axle cansupport.
It is the lowest of axle, wheel, or tire rating.
Usually, the tire or wheel rating is lower than the axle rating,
and determines GAWR.
BRaKe CONTROLLeR
gvWR: The maximum allowable gross weight of the trailer
and its contents. The gross weight of the trailer includes
the weight of the trailer and all of the items within it. GVWR
is sometimes referred to as GTWR (Gross Trailer Weight
Rating), or MGTW (Maximum GrossTrailerWeight).GVWR,
GTWR and MGTW are all the same rating.
For trailers equipped with electric brakes, the electric brake
controller is part of the tow vehicle and is essential in the
operation of the electric brakes on the trailer. The brake
controller is not the same as the safety breakaway brake
system that may be equipped on the trailer.
SiDevieW MiRRORS
The sum total of the GAWR for all trailer axles may be less
than the GVWR for the trailer, because some of the trailer
load is to be carried by the tow vehicle, rather than by the
trailer axle(s).The total weight of the cargo and trailer must
not exceed the GVWR, and the load on an axle must not
exceed its GAWR.
The size of the trailer that is being towed and your state
law regulations determine the size of the mirrors.However,
some states prohibit extended mirrors on a tow vehicle,
except while a trailer is actually being towed. In this
situation, detachable extended mirrors are necessary.
Check with your dealer or the appropriate state agency
for mirror requirements.
pSiC: The tire pressure (psi) measured when cold.
viN: The Vehicle Identification Number.
HeavY DUTY fLaSHeR
eMpTY WeigHT: Some information that comes with the
trailer (such as the Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin)
is not a reliable source for “empty” or “net” weight. The
shipping documents list average or standard weights and
your trailer may be equipped with options.
A Heavy Duty Flasher is an electrical component that may
be required when your trailer turn signal lights are attached
to the tow vehicle flasher circuit.
eLeCTRiCaL CONNeCTOR
An Electrical Connector connects the light and brake
systems on the trailer to the light and brake controls on
the towing vehicle.

BaLL HiTCH COUpLeR
It is wise to carry these warning devices even if you are
not towing a trailer.It is particularly important to have these
when towing a trailer because the hazard flashers of your
towing vehicle will not operate for as long a period of time
when the battery is running both the trailer lights and tow
vehicle lights.
A ball hitch coupler (Figure C) connects to a ball that is
located on or under the rear bumper of tow vehicle. This
system of coupling a trailer to a tow vehicle is sometimes
referred to as “bumper pull.”
A ball hitch trailer may be fitted with a tongue jack that can
raise and lower the coupler.The tongue jack is mounted to
the A-frame (front or tongue) part of the trailer. By rotating
the jack handle clockwise, the jack will extend and raise
the tongue of the trailer.
SafeTY CHaiNS
If the coupler connection comes loose, the safety chains
can keep the trailer attached to the tow vehicle. With
properly rigged safety chains, it is possible to keep the
tongue of the trailer from digging into the road pavement,
even if the coupler-to-hitch connection comes apart.
TRaiLeR LigHTiNg aND BRaKiNg CONNeCTOR
A device that connects electrical power from the tow vehicle
to the trailer. Electricity is used to turn on brake lights,
running lights, and turn signals as required. In addition, if
your trailer has a separate braking system, the electrical
connector will also supply power to the brakes from the
tow vehicle.
Figure C. Ball Hitch Coupler
Before each tow, coat the ball with a thin layer of automotive
bearing grease to reduce wear and ensure proper operation.
Check the locking device that secures the coupler to the
ball for proper operation.
BReaKaWaY SYSTeM
If the trailer coupler connection comes loose, the breakaway
system can actuate emergency hydraulic brakes depending
on the type of actuator on the trailer.The breakaway cable
must be rigged to the tow vehicle with appropriate slack
that will activate the system if the coupler connection
comes loose.
If you see or feel evidence of wear, such as flat spots,
deformations, pitting or corrosion, on the ball or coupler,
immediately have your dealer inspect them to determine
the proper action to prevent possible failure of the ball and
coupler system. All bent or broken coupler parts must be
replaced before towing the trailer.
JaCKSTaND
A device on the trailer that is used to raise and lower the
coupler.The jack is sometimes called the “landing gear” or
the “tongue jack”.
The coupler handle lever must be able to rotate freely and
automatically snap into the latched position. Oil the pivot
points, sliding surfaces, and spring ends with SAE 30W
motor oil.Keep the ball socket and latch mechanism clean.
Dirt or contamination can prevent proper operation of the
latching mechanism.
COUPLER TYPES
Two types of coupler used wit the trailer are discussed
below.
The load rating of the coupler and the necessary ball size
are listed on the trailer tongue.You must provide a hitch and
ball for your tow vehicle where the load rating of the hitch
and ball is equal to or greater than that of your trailer.

OF THE SAME SIZE AS THE COUPLER.
Coupling theTrailer to theTowvehicle (Ball Coupler)
„ Lubricate the hitch ball and the inside of the coupler with
a thin layer of automotive bearing grease.
„ Slowly back up the tow vehicle so that the hitch ball is
near or aligned under the coupler.
The ball size and load rating (capacity) are marked on the
ball. Hitch capacity is marked on the hitch.
„ Using the jackstand at the front of trailer (tongue), turn
the jackstand crank handle to raise the trailer. If the ball
coupler does not line up with the hitch ball, adjust the
position of the tow vehicle.
WaRNiNg
Coupler-to-hitch mismatch can result in uncoupling,
leading to death or serious injury.
„ Open the coupler locking mechanism.Ball couplers have
a locking mechanism with an internal moving piece and
an outside handle. In the open position, the coupler is
able to drop fully onto the hitch ball.
Be sure the LOAD RATING of the hitch ball is equal or

Breakaway Brake System
NOTICE
If the coupler or hitch fails, a properly connected and
working breakaway brake system (Figure F) will apply the
hydraulic brakes on the trailer. The safety chains will keep
the tow vehicle attached and as the brakes are applied at
the trailer’s axles, the trailer/tow vehicle combination will
come to a controlled stop.
Overloading can damage the tongue jack. DO NOT
use the tongue jack to raise the tow vehicle more than
one inch.
If the coupler cannot be secured to the hitch ball, do not
tow the trailer. Call your dealer for assistance. Lower the
trailer so that its entire tongue weight is held by the hitch and
continue retracting the jack to its fully retracted position.

Connecting Trailer Lights
piNTLe HiTCH COUpLeR
Connect the trailer lights to the tow vehicle’s electrical
system using the electric connectors at the front of the
trailer (tongue). Refer to the wiring diagram shown in the
trailer wiring diagram section of this manual.Before towing
the trailer check for the following:
A pintle eye coupler (Figure G) connects to a pintle-hook
hitch that is located on or under the rear bumper of the tow
vehicle.This system of coupling a trailer to a tow vehicle is
sometimes referred to as a “lunette eye, tow ring or G.I.
hitch.”
„ Running lights (turn on tow vehicle headlights).
„ Brake Lights (step on tow vehicle brake pedal).
„ Backup Lights (place tow vehicle gear shift in reverse).
„ Turn Signals (activate tow vehicle directional signal
lever).
WaRNiNg
Improper electrical connection between the tow vehicle
and the trailer will result in inoperable lights and electric
brakes, and can lead to collision.
Figure G. Pintle Hitch Coupler
A pintle hitch trailer may be fitted with a tongue jackstand
that can raise and lower the coupler. The tongue jack is
mounted to the A-frame (front or tongue) part of the trailer.
By rotating the jack handle clockwise, the jack will extend
and raise the tongue of the trailer.
Before each tow:
• Check that the taillights, brake lights and turn signals
work.
• Check that the electric brakes work by operating the
brake controller inside the tow vehicle.
The load rating of the coupler and the necessary pintle
hitch size are listed on the trailer tongue.You must provide
a pintle hitch and pintle coupler for your tow vehicle, where
the load rating of the pintle hitch and pintle coupler is equal
to or greater than that of your trailer.
Uncoupling the Ball Hitch
Follow these steps to uncouple ball hitch from tow
vehicle:
Also, the pintle hitch size must be the same as the pintle
coupler size. If the hitch is too small, too large, underrated,
loose or worn, the trailer can come loose from the tow
vehicle, and may cause death or serious injury.
„ Block trailer tires to prevent the trailer from rolling, before
jacking the trailer up.
„ Disconnect the electrical connector.
Pintle Coupler and Pintle Hook
„ Disconnect the breakaway brake switch cable. Promptly
replace the pullpin in the switchbox.
Before each tow, check the locking device that secures the
coupler to the pintle hook assembly.
„ Before extending jackstand, make certain the ground
surface below the jackstand foot will support the tongue
load.
The pintle hook lever must be able to operate freely and
automatically snap into place into the latched position.
Lightly oil the pivot points and sliding surfaces with SAE30W
motor oil to prevent rust and help ensure proper operation
of the latching mechanism.
„ Rotate the jackstand handle (or crank) clockwise. This
will slowly extend the jack and transfer the weight of the
trailer tongue to the jack.
If you see or feel evidence of wear, such as flat spots,
deformations, pitting or corrosion, on the pintle hook or
coupler, immediately have your dealer inspect them to
determine the proper action to prevent possible failure of

Lug nuts are also prone to loosen after first being
assembled. When driving a new trailer (or after wheels
have been remounted), check to make sure they are tight
after the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving and before
each tow thereafter.
TiRe SafeTY
UnsafeTires, Lug Nuts orWheels
Trailer tires and wheels are more likely to fail than car tires
and wheels because they carry a heavier load. Therefore,
it is essential to inspect the trailer tires before each tow.
Failure to perform this check can result in a wheel parting
from the trailer and a crash, leading to death or serious
injury.
If a tire has a bald spot, bulge, cuts, is showing any cords,
or is cracked, replace the tire before towing. If a tire has
uneven tread wear, take the trailer to a dealer service
center for diagnosis.
WaRNiNg
Lug nuts are prone to loosen after initial installation,
which can lead to death or serious injury.
Uneven tread wear can be caused by tire imbalance, axle
misalignment or incorrect inflation.
Check lug nuts for tightness on a new trailer or when
wheel(s) have been remounted after the first 10, 25
and 50 miles of driving.
Tires with too little tread will not provide adequate tracking
on wet roadways and can result in loss of control, leading
to death or serious injury.
WaRNiNg
Improper tire pressure causes an unstable trailer and
can result in a tire blowout and loss of control. Therefore,
before each tow you must also check the tire pressure.Tire
pressure must be checked when tires are cold.
Improper lug nut torque can cause a wheel parting from
the trailer, leading to death or serious injury.
Be sure lug nuts are tight before each tow.
Allow 3 hours cool-down after driving as much as 1 mile at
40 mph before checking tire pressure. Trailer tires will be
inflated to higher pressures than passenger vehicle tires.
WaRNiNg
Improper tire pressure can result in a blowout and loss
of control, which can lead to death or serious injury.
Since trailer wheels and lug nuts (or bolts) are subjected
to greater side loads than automobile wheels, they are
more prone to loosen. Before each tow, check to make
sure they are tight.
Be sure tires are inflated to pressure indicated on side
wall before towing trailer.
The proper tightness (torque) for lug nuts is listed in the
lug nut tightening section of this manual. Use a torque
wrench to tighten the lug nuts. If you do not have a torque
wrench, use a lug wrench (from your tow vehicle) and
tighten the nuts as much as you can. Then have a service
garage or trailer dealer tighten the lug nuts to the proper
torque.
Determining Load Limit ofTrailer
Determining the load limits of a trailer includes more than
understanding the load limits of the tires alone. On all
trailers there is a Federal certification/VIN label that is
located on the forward half of the left (road) side of the unit.
This certification/VIN label will indicate the trailer’s Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). This is the most weight
the fully loaded trailer can weigh. It will also provide the
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). This is the most a the
axle can weigh.
WaRNiNg
Metal creep between the wheel rim and lug nuts will
cause rim to loosen and could result in a wheel coming
off, leading to death or serious injury.
Tighten lug nuts before each tow.

Step 3.
Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers
from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds.
Figure I. Trailer Tire Placard
If additional work items (hoses, tools, clamps etc.) are
going to be added to the trailer, be sure they are distributed
evenly to prevent overloading front to back and side to side.
Heavy items should be placed low and as close to the axle
positions as reasonable.Too many items on one side may
overload a tire.
Step 4.
The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo
and luggage capacity. For example, if the “XXX” amount
equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers
in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage
capacity is 650 lbs. (1400-750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.).
Excessive loads and/or underinflation cause tire overloading
and, as a result, abnormal tire flexing occurs.This situation
can generate an excessive amount of heat within the tire.
Excessive heat may lead to tire failure.It is the air pressure
that enables a tire to support the load, so proper inflation
is critical. The proper air pressure may be found on the
certification/VIN label and/or on the Tire and Loading
Information placard. This value should never exceed the
maximum cold inflation pressure stamped on the tire.
Step 5.
Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo and luggage capacity calculated
in Step 4.
If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer
will be transferred to your vehicle.Consult the tow vehicle’s
manual to determine how this weight transfer reduces the
available cargo and luggage capacity of your vehicle.
Perform the following steps to determine the load limit of
your trailer.
Studies of tire safety show that maintaining proper tire
pressure, observing tire and vehicle load limits (not carrying
more weight in your vehicle than your tires or vehicle can
safely handle), avoiding road hazards and inspecting tires
for cuts, slashes and other irregularities are the most
important things you can do to avoid tire failure, such as
tread separation or blowout and flat tires. These actions,
along with other care and maintenance activities, can
also:
Step 1.
Locate the statement, “The weight of cargo should never
exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.,” on your vehicle’s Tire and
Loading Information placard (Figure I). This value equals
the available amount of equipment load capacity.
Step 2.
Determine the weight of the equipment being loaded
on the tow vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed
the available equipment load capacity. The trailer’s Tire
Information Placard is attached adjacent to or near the
trailer’sVIN (Certification) label at the left front of the trailer
(See Figure I).

code where it was manufactured, and the last four numbers
represent the week and year the tire was built.For example,
the numbers 3197 means the 31st week of 1997.The other
numbers are marketing codes used at the manufacturer’s
discretion. This information is used to contact consumers
if a tire defect requires a recall.
P: The “P” indicates the tire is for passenger vehicles.
Next number: This three-digit number gives the width in
millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge.
In general, the larger the number, the wider the tire.
Next number:This two-digit number, known as the aspect
ratio, gives the tire’s ratio of height to width. Numbers of
70 or lower indicate a short sidewall for improved steering
response and better overall handling on dry pavement.
Tire Ply Composition and Materials Used:The number of
plies indicates the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric
in the tire. In general, the greater the number of plies, the
more weight a tire can support. Tire manufacturers also
must indicate the materials in the tire, which include steel,
nylon, polyester, and others.
P:The “R” stands for radial. Radial ply construction of tires
has been the industry standard for the past 20 years.
Next number: This two-digit number is the wheel or rim
diameter in inches. If you change your wheel size, you
will have to purchase new tires to match the new wheel
diameter.
Maximum Load Rating: This number indicates the
maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can be carried

„ DO NOT run over curbs or other foreign objects in the
roadway, and try not to strike the curb when parking.
„ Check tire inflation pressure weekly during use to insure
the maximum tire life and tread wear.
Temperature Letter: This letter indicates a tire’s
resistance to heat. The temperature grade is for a tire that
is inflated properly and not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation or excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat build-up and possible tire
failure. From highest to lowest, a tire’s resistance to heat
is graded as “A”, “B”, or “C”.
„ DO NOT bleed air from tires when they are hot.
„ Inspect tires for uneven wear patterns on the tread,
cracks, foreign objects, or other signs of wear or
trauma.
„ Remove bits of glass and foreign objects wedged in

„ DO NOT overload tow vehicle.Check the tire information
and loading placard for safe allowable tire loading
conditions.
Tire Repair
The proper repair of a punctured tire requires a plug for the
hole and a patch for the area inside the tire that surrounds
the puncture hole. Punctures through the tread can be
repaired if they are not too large, but punctures to the
sidewall should not be repaired. Tires must be removed
from the rim to be properly inspected before being plugged
and patched.

SLUMP TEST PROCEDURE
BULLET POINTED
STEEL ROD
1. To obtain a representative sample (concrete), take
several samples at three or more regular intervals
throughout the discharge of the mixer or truck.DO NOT
take samples at the beginning or end of the discharge.
1/3 FULL
2. Dampen the inside of the cone and place it on a smooth,
moist, non-absorbent, level surface large enough to
accommodate both the slumped concrete and the
slump cone. Stand on the “foot pieces” throughout the
test procedure to hold the cone firmly in place.
1/2 DIAMETER
24 INCHES LONG

PIECE
Figure P. Slump Test (Full-Overflow)
6. Remove the excess concrete (Figure Q) from the top
of the cone, using the tamping rod as a screed.
3. Fill the cone 1/3 full by volume (Figure N) and rod 25
times with a 1/2” dia x 24” lg. bullet-pointed steel rod.
(This is a specific requirement which will produce non-
standard results unless followed exactly.) Distribute
rodding evenly over the entire cross section of the
sample.

7. Lift the cone vertically (Figure R) with a slow even
motion.DO NOT jar the concrete or tilt the cone during
this process. Invert the withdrawn cone, and place it
next to, but not touching the slumped concrete.

4. Fill cone another 1/3 (Figure O) which will make the
cone 2/3 full by volume.Rod this second layer 25 times
with the rod penetrating into, but not through, the first
layer. Distribute rodding evenly over the entire cross
section of the layer.
Figure R. Slump Test (Cone Invert)
8. Lay a straight edge (Figure S) across the top of the
slumped cone.Measure the amount of slump in inches
from the bottom of the straight edge to the top of the
slumped concrete at a point over the original center
of the base.The slump operation must be complete in
a maximum elapsed time of 1-½ minutes. Discard the
concrete. DO NOT use it in another test.
