LS600 PUMP — MAINTENANCE (PUMP)
5.Add water to the hopper. Pump and flush clean the entire hopper, shuttle tube and discharge elbow with water.
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.
7.Fill hopper with water. Pump until sponge and clean water come out the discharge end of the hose and line system.
8.When the pump has been used to pump small aggregate concrete (pea rock, ½" minus) 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.
9.When the pump has been used to pump large aggregate concrete (" to 1 (" follow the instructions in step 8 once per week.

HYDRAULIC OIL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The Mayco pump is equipped with an
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.
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
In areas where the weather normally remains under 50°F., use Shell Oil Tellus 46 (or the equivalent).The above steps must be followed or severe damage to the main axial piston pump can occur.
1.When changing the hydraulic oil or topping off the reservoir, use only the following type. (Reservoir capacity - 50 gal.)
Hydraulic oil: Shell Oil Tellius 68 or
Mobil DFE 26
Texaco Rand HDC
2.Lubrication: Grease daily/Hour
WARNING - HYDRAULIC OIL
DO NOT mix oil brands! This may impair quality.
