Cylinder Lubrication Box

NOTICE

When using the pump during freezing conditions, completely drain the lubrication box and cover the hopper after pumping. Frozen liquid will restrict the piston travel and cause severe damage to the pump.

WARNING

ALWAYS follow lock out-tag out procedures before checking lubrication level, Stop the engine and remove the engine starter key. The possibility exists of severe bodily harm when hands are placed inside.

1.The lubrication level should be checked everyday prior to pumping and maintained at a height of 5 inches or about ½ the concrete cylinder height. We recommend using a 30-weight motor oil.

2.As the rubber piston cups naturally wear, fine cement particles will accumulate in the box. Once the concrete paste reaches a height of about ½ inch from the bottom of the box, drain and clean the lubrication box.

Cleaning the Lubrication Box

1.Remove the top cover and the drain plug (Figure 54) located at the bottom of the box and fully drain the inside of the box.

2.Once the box is drained, start the engine and stroke the cylinder (keep hands out of box) ten to fifteen times.

3.While stroking, spray water inside of the box to thoroughly clean out all contamination (Figure 54).

4.When the box is clean replace drain plug, add new lubrication and install the top cover.
