I'll keep my big pumps lol At least the big jobs usually order enough mud. If i had to pick one machine to run for rest of my life, it would be a 47m. Most versatile machine on the market imo. Just big enough to het some good commercial, but small enough to cram into tight slots. We do have a super sweet 40z tho......

40Z was my all time favourite, until we took delivery of our 38-5. The 47 I never really got too hot on, and not so much because of the pump unit (which is fantastic) but more because ours is mounted on an absolute turd of a chassis. Underpowered, under-geared, and turns like a Boeing 747. I feel like if it were on a better optioned chassis, I could very well be in agreement with you.

For rubber line off the boom i like to load 3 small bags of slick pack in the primer port and fill it with water and then i will send a hopper full of really wet grout behind it along with the crete .. i have pushed that through 280 ft of 4inch rubber line with no issues at all i mean it doesn't even kick the hose

Grout is absolutely the best all/end all for priming (which we could have it supposed on every line pour). I personally just haven’t been able to find good results using slick-pack to prime through horizontal system (rubber especially). I often think that perhaps it’s due to the type/amount of sand used in our mixes here locally. 🤔

Yeah man, I’ve never had good results with it. I actually have found it to be worse than water in that when it does plug in the hose, it’s an absolute stubborn “you know what” to bang it out. Big ‘Ol ball of gel and sand. I’m convinced that there’s something procedural which I must be doing wrong. Manufactures sell a TON of this gel type primer, there’s no way everyone buying it is experiencing the same crappy results as we are…. 🤔🤔🤔

again I will take partial credit for the bag trick. im sure other ppl have suggested but I gave a step by step and next video u did it so your welcome. lol just kidding , thanks for opening up a portal for us pumpers from everywhere to have somewhere to learn and bounce ideas off each other. also, I will suggest try to pump at a higher volume, the bags help a ton but you still have 20-25 ft of potential plugging from friction if the benny gets away from the mud. by pumping fast, the benny doesn't have to time to run and gets pushed by the the concrete behind it coating your hoses perfectly. give it a try. anytime I've accidentally primed out downhill or any way wide open, I've never plugged, even on a 350ft stretch downhill with nothing but 2.5' rubber hose. not saying pump wide open, just saying faster the better.

@canadianconcretepumper1979

Antenna placement can definitely have an effect, especially if the signal strength of the radio is not super robust to begin with (I personally have zero experience with the pump boss). That being said, we’ve used Omnex, Scanreco, and Aarcomm remotes on our Putz line-pumps over the years. The Aarcomm has by far the best signal. The Omnex was pretty good as well. The Scanreco would get a little iffy beyond the 175’ mark. To be fair to the Scanreco, this was some 10+ years ago now, and I believe an early iteration of their line-pump remotes. A lot could have changed between now end then.
