I got to run a couple of those old 28s when I started in the 90s. 800 is the pump kit size. This is before wireless remote and proportional controls. These had what was known as black and white boom controls, they are off or on. So you would tap the down and hold the up functions to balance the speeds. Was a lot of fun back in the day. The gate valve is a mean mother for sure but pumps just like a rock valve to me. This is so cool to see brings back memories of the old days for sure. Thanks for showing us!
I used to run one of these back in the day also, except we had an 801/28. I don’t know what the difference was, I was at the show and looked at it and it looks similar. Does anybody know the difference between an 800 and 801?
As long as the mixer drivers keep mud in the hopper they’re great! I’ve run a LOT of hard facing in the gate and rock valves. I can’t weld to save my life but I’m pretty good at hard facing.
We used to have a few of those same exact ones, my father and grandfather ran some and my father was on one everyday for 6 months straight pumping all of the concrete for our city’s baseball stadium the Cleveland Indians. Along with some of the old Whiteman booms which were even before those schwing booms.
I was taught on a Schwing 801 Gate Valve Cab Over similar to this unit.Hard wire remote.You stood on the machine in those days.They are so heavy on the rear axle you have to grab the bottom of steering wheel while driving over bumpy roads to keep your head from hitting the ceiling!.They will basically pump a 2000 psi mix with ease. Do not let this hopper run low or empty because it will blast concrete out of the hopper faster and further than any style Rock Valve or S-Tube. Looking back...All outriggers are manual push/pull/extend/and the outriggers are pin style height adjustable. EPA would hate them in this day and age due to the oil pots needing to be cleaned and topped off daily.Brings back memories seeing this restored machine.
Used to really frost my wheaties when mixer drivers would run out of concrete and forget to mention it to me. Those gate valves will throw mud clear to the front of a ten yard mixer.
I’d seen recently they’d posted before and after photos to one of the social media platforms (can’t remember which one specifically). It was amazingly clean even prior to the restoration. This thing was the star of the show for me!
@@canadianconcretepumper1979 agree - made me smile from ear to ear seeing that - especially knowing I can bring a working 80’s line pump to our booth one year…will make it happen, I promise!
I started on a 85 28 meter 1200. I still do not miss those manual pull out outriggers. But it was cool to run on that old black n white hydraulics. Lol
International fleet star those and load stars were everywhere years ago they came with many different engines and trannys Thompson pumps used them as did schwing. Thompson was later bought out by putzmeister
Yoder Schwinn's the older Schwinn's what measures were the best concrete pumps I remember this guy from Flemington New Jersey opportunity pumping he was the best
I used to operate an 801/28, looks identical. It even had the 3208 cat. That engine ran forever, but couldn’t get out of its own way when going up the mountains of Pennsylvania. Great content scott, keep up the great work

I loved running these little guys. They were such great workhorses up in the Rockies.

That's the pump I learnt on when I was younger here in IRELAND in the early 90s brings it all back didn't even have a remote control back then

Thanks for sharing Scott, you and Caleb have a great time 🎉

I saw that last night, very cool for sure
This boom was owned by Mardian Equipment in Arizona FYI - thanks for the video!

I’m only 22 so seeing that is a little new for me 🤣🤣 but awesome to see!

I wanna see all the guys under 40 jump on it, and see how well they do 😂
In over 40, and I’d still be completely lost 😂😂😂
Gate valves Wow
International fleet star those and load stars were everywhere years ago they came with many different engines and trannys Thompson pumps used them as did schwing. Thompson was later bought out by putzmeister
The 800 was in reference to the gates at back both were 8” top and discharge. An 801 had 8” top and 7” discharge.
Boss have any pump operator job in canada.having 23 years of concrete pumping experience.current operating 58 putz in oman.
That thing will pump anything
What did Garth say in Wayne's World?
Disfruta esa feria es genial mi hermano algún día estaré aya
i operated this style machine more than i would like too... with a rock valve though....gotta start somewhere
Dicho por mis amigos de Schwing
Good tail swing on it
Is this the one owned by pumpcrete in concord ?
That’s cool

@@donaldcurtis9229 What they’ve done to restore this piece of industry history is nothing short of amazing!
Best ever! Vintage pumps are steel porn!
Dude, this thing most definitely inspires naughty thoughts!!!
Schwing is good iron
