PRE-OPERATION INSPECTION
The CONDITION of the unit prior to start-up is a very IMPORTANT factor as it directly
affects the operator’s safety as well as those around him. It should be a common practice
that the operator performs a general inspection of the REED 00 MODEL C50SS before
each day’s operation.
The purpose of the operator’s inspection is to keep the equipment in PROPER working
condition and to DETECT any sign of malfunction during normal operations between
scheduled maintenance checks.
DOWNTIME is COSTLY and can possibly be prevented by taking a few minutes prior to
start-up to do a thorough walk-around inspection. This inspection must be performed each
day before the unit is operated. Report any damage or faulty operation immediately.
Attach a sign, if need be, at the control panel which states ------ DO NOT OPERATE ------.
Repair any discrepancies before use.
Some major items to be considered for your inspection include the following:
1. OVERALL MACHINE CONDITION
•External structural damage
•Wheel lug nuts missing or loose
•Brake line wiring, connection
•Condition of tires, pits, tears, cuts, inflation
•Decals, placards, warning signs
•Missing, broken or damaged parts
•Remote switch & cable condition
•Gauges, Throttle control
2. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
•Loose or damaged hoses, tubing, fittings
•Hydraulic leaks

•Hydraulic fluid level
•Cleanliness of fluid, filter condition indicator
•Hydraulic valves and control levers
•Hydraulic cylinders
3. HOPPER
•Grate in place not damaged
•Agitator condition
•Drive motor
•Swing tube connection
•Shift cylinders condition
•Outlet Connection
4. ELECTRICAL
•Frayed or broken wires or loose connections
•Condition of switches, lights, connections
•Instruments and gauges - condition
Defective components, structural damage, missing
parts or equipment malfunctions, jeopardize the
SAFETY of the operator and other personnel and
can cause extensive damage to the machine. A
poorly MAINTAINED machine can become the
greatest OPERATIONAL HAZARD you may
encounter.

GETTING ACQUAINTED
(UNIT FAMILIARIZATION)
As previously indicated, it is important from a SAFE operational standpoint that you, the
OPERATOR, know your machine. This means the function of each control as to what
happens when it is activated, how it might interact with other functions and any limitations,
which might exist. A GOOD UNDERSTANDING of the controls and capabilities will
enhance operation and assure maximum operating and efficiency and SAFETY.
These next few pages will assist you in GETTING ACQUAINTED with the 00 MODEL
C50SS concrete pump. Carefully study these.

CONTROL FAMILIARIZATION
The controls for operation of the 00 MODEL C50SS can be found and are located on the
right (curb) side of the machine. A control box is provided and contains all the main
function instruments, switches, and indicators. Hydraulic gauges and throttle control are
on lower portion of hydraulic tank. The volume control is adjacent to the main control.
Each location or panel is dedicated to the operation of certain functions. These are noted
herein:
1. SYSTEM POWER SWITCH
This is a two (2) position key switch and is used to control the engine. Turn key to
SYSTEM ON position to energize electrical circuit. Shut down engine by turning key
to SYSTEM OFF position.
2. ENGINE START SWITCH
The GREEN BUTTON is a pushbutton switch. By pushing the button, along with the
key switch in the SYSTEM ON position, will start the engine.

3. EMERGENCY STOP
This is an emergency switch and is used to shut down the pump in an emergency
situation. It is of the push-pull type. Depress PUSH knob in to STOP operation.
PULL knob out to REACTIVATE system. NOTE – The HORN/RESET must be
switched one time to restart pump operation.
4. HOUR METER
This instrument is used to record the number of hours the electric system has been
activated. The hourmeter becomes operational when the ignition key is ON.
5. CHECK ENGINE (YELLOW LIGHT)
Light, when lit, is indicating to check the diesel engine for possible problems.
6. STOP ENGINE (RED LIGHT)
Light, when lit, indicates to STOP ENGINE immediately, it requires attention.
7. DIGITAL DISPLAY
The control panel’s digital display indicates the following areas: The engine RPM,
the OIL PRESSURE, the VOLTS,ENGINE TEMP,COOLANT LEVEL and the status
of the SYSTEMS.
8. PUMP POWER SWITCH (GREEN LIGHT)
This is a two (2) position toggle switch and is used to control the pump ON/OFF
feature.
8A FAST CHANGE SWITCH (C-SERIES ONLY closed loop hyd. system)
This is a two (2) position toggle switch and is used to control the FAST CHANGE
feature, that changes the hydraulic pump to run smoother in certain appiications.
8B PUMP DIRECTION SWITCH
This is a three (3) position toggle switch and is used to control the cycle direction of
the concrete pump. CENTER position of toggle is PUMP-OFF. Move toggle to UP
position to activate PUMP-ON AND FORWARD cycling. Move toggle in DOWN
position for REVERSE cycling.
8C VIBRATOR (OPTION THAT GOES ON THE HOPPER GRATE)
This is a three (3) position toggle switch and is used to control the vibrator
8D DIAGNOSTIC INTERFACE (FACTORY AND FACTORY DEALERS ONLY)
This is a RS-232 computer port that is used for factory system settings and system
diagnostic analysis.

9. CONTROL SWITCH
This is a two (2) position toggle switch and is used to select the pump control
location. Move toggle to LOCAL to enable operation of concrete pump from main
stationary panel. Move toggle to REMOTE for operation using the remote control.
10. INDICATOR LIGHTS RELATED TO THE PUMP (GREEN LIGHT)
These green lights, located above and below the switches are used, when lit, to
indicate the position of the toggles.
11. HORN/RESET
This is a momentary toggle switch and is used to reactivate the control and pump
circuit after machine has been shut down using the EMERGENCY STOP switch.
Once the emergency stop has been depressed it will be necessary to pull out switch
and move toggle of HORN switch momentary to RESET position.
12. CONTROL ON INDICATOR (GREEN LIGHT)
This is a green indicator light, when lit denotes control circuit is energized.
13. STROKE CHANGE SWITCH
This switch is a two (2) position spring return switch and has two functions. One is
A momentary toggle to change stroke from one side to the other to help clear a
possible line plug. The other function is when the switch is held DOWN and allow
for end of stroke. High pressure check or in ths instance of equalizing the stroking
pistons. The allowance of the spring return sets the machine back in forward stroke.
14. VOLUME CONTROL (C-SERIES ONLY CLOSED LOOP HYD SYSTEM)
This control is installed on the discharge port of the main hydraulic pump. It is used
to adjust volume OUTPUT of the material cylinders which in turn is controlled by the
hydraulic pump. Flipping toggle switch UPWARD will INCREASE volume, flipping
toggle switch DOWNWARD will DECREASE volume.
15. THROTTLE CONTROL-TOGGLE SWITCH
This is a three (3) position spring centered switch and is used to adjust the engine
RPM. Toggle UP to INCREASE engine speed. Toggle DOWN to DECREASE
engine speed. Speed of engine will retained as set until RESET.
16. STROKE COUNTER (OPTION-NOT SHOWN)
This digital indicator is used to indicate the amount of stokes per minute the concrete
pump is producing.

19. AGITATOR CONTROL
The agitator or remixer function is controlled by a manually operated single spool
directional control valve. The valve is used to control ON-OFF function as well
as the rotation direction of the hydraulic motor. With lever in CENTER position, the
hydraulic flow to the motor is OFF.
20. OUTRIGGER CONTROL (IF EQUIPPED)
As part of the same valve bank as the agitator, the two (2) additional valve sections
are used to control the outriggers. One lever controls the right outrigger; the other
controls the left outrigger. Lever in CENTER position, the flow is OFF.

21. WATER PUMP CONTROL – OPTION
This option is operated from the auxiliary circuit. It utilizes a single spool manual
directional valve to control the operation of the hydraulic motor. The motor is used to
drive the water pump.

22. SHIFT BALL VALVE
This control is located on the swing circuit hydraulic manifold. It is a manual ball
valve and is used to control the speed of the S-tube shift. For a hard fast shift, place
lever of ball valve in a vertical (12 o’clock) position. This places the valve fully open
and allows the flow to bypass the restrictive orifice. This valve position many be used
when a harsh material mix is being pumped requiring more power in shifting the S-
tube.
For an easier, slower shift, move the ball valve lever to the 3 o’clock position. This
closes the ball valve and directs the fluid through the orifice. This position may be
used when a slurry is being pumped or when the machine is being cleaned out.
This unit can be operated with lever in any position from 12 o’clock to 3 o’clock.
Eventually, experience will dictate what setting is best.
