The Pneumatic Tanker Thread

I unloaded kitty litter into a pit like that one time. Only difference was I bottom dropped it into the pit. That took forever, the hole at the bottom was like 4"x4" square. Think I was there two hours

 

I used to load kittty liter over by Maricopa CA, about 2 miles out of town as I recall, I don't remember where I delivered it to though.

 

There are different speed PTOs

 

I run 800-1000 rpm and if I go to 1100 the plug will blow and I’m running cement and making more money than I did hauling sand

 

A lot of that is in the PTO gear ratios. Running cement I'm unloading at 1100 nowadays with this truck. Lime I'll go as high as 1300 when needed. If I run much less I melt the melt plug

 

That’s fast!

 

Good idea having one place for it. Pneumatic work has its own quirks that guys pulling tanks or van do not always understand, especially when it comes to pressure control, line cleanliness, and learning how to avoid plugging up a trailer. A dedicated thread makes it easier to swap real world tips instead of everyone reinventing the wheel out there.
