Diesel Trailer Concrete Pump Safety

Safety is very important when you use a diesel trailer concrete pump. You keep your team and equipment safe by following smart steps before, during, and after each job. The DHBT60 model has easy controls and safety features, but you still need to check everything yourself.

Pre-Operation Checks

Equipment Inspection

You begin each day by checking your diesel trailer concrete pump. Look for damage or wear on the boom and moving parts. Make sure pipes, clamps, gaskets, and hoses are all there and in good shape. Check the tires, tire pressure, and brakes if you will tow the pump. Use safety chains and cross them for extra safety. Look at the site layout and clear the area for safe concrete delivery.

  • Put the pump on flat ground away from danger.

  • Check the ground to make sure it can hold the pump.

  • Look at the boom for loose or broken parts.

  • Tighten all hydraulic connections and check for leaks.

  • Make sure the boom can move without hitting anything.

Fuel and Fluids

You keep your diesel trailer concrete pump working well by checking fuel and fluids. Fill the diesel tank before you start. Check oil, coolant, and hydraulic fluid levels. Look for leaks under the pump. Add more fluids if any are low. Clean the filters if needed.

Hoses and Connections

You check all hoses and connections before you start. Tighten any loose fittings. Change hoses that are worn or cracked. Make sure hydraulic hose joints are tight to stop leaks. Test the connections by running water through the pump before using concrete.

Safe Setup

Stable Positioning

You pick a steady spot for your diesel trailer concrete pump. Flat ground keeps the pump steady. Stay away from soft dirt or slopes. Check for rocks or holes in the ground. Make sure the pump will not tip over while working.

Securing Trailer

You lock the trailer before you start pumping. Use wheel chocks and lock the wheels. Attach safety chains if you move the pump. Double-check the hitch and connections. Make sure the trailer cannot roll or move.

Outriggers

You open and lock the outriggers to keep the pump steady. Check the ground before lifting. Make sure each outrigger sits on solid ground. If you use remote control, test the outriggers to see if they work right. The DHBT60’s remote helps you set up safely, even in hard places.

Many accidents happen when operators forget to fill extra diesel in the outrigger or do not leave enough space for setup. You stop tipping by checking outriggers and giving enough room.

Operational Safety

PPE

You wear personal protective equipment (PPE) every time you use the diesel trailer concrete pump. PPE keeps you safe from loud noise, cement, and flying bits. Make sure your team wears ear protection, gloves, safety glasses, and strong boots.

Start-Up/Shutdown

You follow safe steps when starting and stopping the pump. Check the controls and safety features before you begin. Talk with your team about how to start up. Do not hurry. When shutting down, run water through the pump to clean out concrete. Turn off the engine and lock the controls.

Not paying attention during setup can cause tipping accidents. Always check outriggers and leave enough space for safe work.

New technology, like pressure sensors for outriggers, can help stop accidents. The DHBT60’s remote control warns you about problems, making your job safer.

Emergency Steps

You get ready for emergencies before you start. Know where the emergency stop button is. Teach your team to act fast if something goes wrong. Keep people away from dangerous areas. Set up clear ways to talk if you cannot see the placement point.

  1. Stand back during air release to avoid hose whipping.

  2. Stay at least 20 feet away from power lines.

  3. Check the pump often to stop electrical problems.
