2 Examination
2.1 Examination by machine operator
Prior to each shift, the machine operator has to examine the
effectiveness of the control and safety devices as well as the
proper fitting of the protection devices.
The safe working condition of construction machinery has to be
checked by the machine operator during operation.
If the safety devices show any defects or if any other defects are
detected that compromise a safe operation, the supervisor has to
be informed immediately.
In case of defects that cause harm to persons, the operation of the
construction machine has to be stopped to eliminate the defects.
2.2 Periodic inspection
Construction machinery has to be inspected for their safe working
condition in accordance with the operating conditions and the
operational requirements as needed, however at least once a year
by an expert.
Pressure vessels have to undergo the prescribed expert
inspections.
The inspection results have to be documented and kept at least
until the next inspection.

17 Operating modes
17.1 Pump motor selector switch
Fig. 10: Operating modes pump motor
The pump motor has three modes of operation:
Selector switch position "0":
The machine is switched off.
Selector switch on the right (latching) for D and R pumps:
The machine starts when the main switch and the control voltage
are switched on.
Selector switch on the left (latching) for 2L pumps:
Selector switch on the left (latching) for 2L pumps The pump motor
runs backwards, so the pump is relaxed.
17.2 Speed controller
Fig. 11: Speed controller operating mode
The motor speed is set with the potentiometer and the amount of
material is determined.
Low speed →less material.
High speed →more material.
18 Operation
18.1 Safety
Personal safety equipment All machine operators must wear the following safety equipment:
■Protective work clothing
■Safety goggles
■Safety gloves
■Safety shoes
■Ear protection

Basic information
WARNING!
Danger of injury due to improper operation!
Improper operation can lead to serious injuries or
equipment damage.
Therefore:
Carry out all operating steps according to this
operating manual.
Before starting any work, ensure that all covers
and protective devices are installed and
functioning properly.
Never disable protective devices during
operation.
Keep the operating area clean and tidy.
Components and tools that are stacked on one
another or left lying around can cause accidents.
An increased noise level can cause permanent
hearing loss. Operation can result in noise that
exceeds 95 dB (A) in close proximity to the
machine. Close proximity is defined as the area
within 5 metres of the machine.
For further information see book art. 00142156
General safety instructions for mixing pumps.
19 Description of functions
The PFT SWING L is a conveying pump with an electronic, continuously adjustable direct drive.
Its application is universal, whether fed from buckets or screw mixers.
Fluid, pumpable and solvent-free materials up to a maxium of 3 mm granulation* can be pumped, grouted
and sprayed.
The conveying pump PFT SWING L offers advantages that all users have come to appreciate.
* Recommended value, depending on conveying height, condition and version of pump, mortar quality (composition and consistency)

20 Material
For all pumpable ready-mix dry mortar such as:
Adhesive mortar
Reinforcement plaster
Finishing plaster
Plastic plaster
Silicate plaster
SPCC restoration mortar
Multiple component materials
For liquid materials such as:
Emulsion paints
Primers
Betokontakt

For wet products and materials with a paste-like
consistency such as:
Finishing plaster of up to 3 mm granulation
Ornamental plaster
Bentonite
Adhesive mortar
Restoration mortar
20.1 Flow characteristics
NOTE!
The TWISTER D 6-3 pump can be used with an operating pressure of up to 30 bar.
The D 8-1,5 pump can be used with an operating pressure of up to 15 bar
The maximum conveying distance depends primarily on the flow charactistics of the mortar.
Heavy, coarse-grained mortar does not flow well. Fluid mortars, filling compounds and
paints flow easily.
It is recommended to reduce the length of the mortar hose if you exceed an operating
pressure of 30 /15 bar.
To avoid machine breakdowns and excessive wear on pump motor, pump shaft and pump,
always use original PFT spare parts such as:
PFT rotors
PFT stators
PFT pump shafts
PFT material hoses
These components are compatible with one another and form a single constructive unit
together with the machine.
Failure to follow these recommendations will result not only in the voiding of the warranty,
but the quality of the mortar you are producing will also suffer.
