Safety/Service Bulletin 1023-08
Subject: Release of
Safety Manual
version 6.x.1
Dear Schwing Customer,
The
Safety Manual
has been updated to version 6.0.1 and has several changes, most of which
pertain to the more common incidents currently being reported in the concrete pumping industry
(hose whipping, tip overs and electrocution). One notable pagination change occurred. The
pipewall thickness chart, which has always appeared on page 73 of the Safety Manual, has been
pushed back to page 75. In the past, releases such as this would include the complete paperback
manual and a non-laminated version of the updated
Co-worker Safety Rules
. In an effort to “Go
Green”, we have decided to ship a CD containing six PDF files: Version 6.0.1 of Safety Manual
(English & Spanish), version 6.0.1 of the Co-worker Safety Manual (English & Spanish), and
version 6.0.1 of the Line Pump Safety Manual (English & Spanish). This package, as in the past,
also includes an order form for hard copies of any of those documents. Just fill out the attached
form(s) and fax it to us at the number listed. We will ship one set of manuals free of charge for
each unit that is listed with its serial number and current location. Additional manuals are
available at a nominal fee. The Co-worker Safety Rules are available as laminated books intended
to be kept on the pump for easy reference. Please instruct your operators to make the co-worker
information available to the placing crew and laborers, and to read the information to the workers
if they believe the workers wouldn’t understand the printed text. If you are planning any safety
training for your customers, the
Co-worker Safety Rules
booklet is also available in a non-
laminated version at a fraction of the cost. If you choose to order the un-laminated version, the
part numbers are 30381023 for English and 30381028 for Spanish. You could also print them
yourself from the file on the enclosed disc. Of course, the non-laminated version is not intended to
be kept on the pump. It is our objective to get a copy of each of these publications into the hands
of every operator and the workers around the pump. Please help us make the Safety Manual
effective for jobsite safety by obtaining a copy for each of your operators, and encourage them to
read and understand the rules. Older versions of the manual should be discarded when the new
version is in hand.
Thank you in advance for your consideration in this matter.
Best Regards,
Danny L. Mace
