Equipment Movement and Control

• Prepare the pump for safe movement between the warehouse and construction sites.
• Safely load, unload, tow, position, secure and relocate the pump.
• Inspect the trailer, tyres, supports, connections, lighting and securing points before transportation.
• Ensure all pipes, hoses, tools and accessories are counted and safely transported.
• Protect the pump from damage during transportation, operation, cleaning and storage.
• Maintain simple records of operating hours, servicing, repairs, breakdowns and replaced parts.

Safety and Equipment Care

• Follow BCM HSE procedures and applicable Indonesian K3 requirements.
• Maintain a safe working area around the pump, hopper, pipeline and discharge hose.
• Never disconnect or repair a pressurised concrete pipeline or hydraulic system.
• Ensure all clamps, safety pins, supports, connections, guards and emergency devices are correctly installed.
• Immediately report unsafe conditions, serious faults, equipment damage or missing safety components.
• Keep the pump and surrounding work area clean and organised.
• Prevent unauthorised operation, misuse and avoidable equipment damage.

Requirements

• Minimum five years of proven experience operating concrete pumps.
• Direct experience with diesel-powered hydraulic trailer-mounted, stationary or line concrete pumps.
• Ability to independently operate, position, set up and clean a concrete pump.
• Strong practical understanding of diesel engines, hydraulic systems, pumping systems, electrical controls, pipes, hoses and wear components.
