Abstract

This disclosure relates to a truck-mounted concrete pump comprising a concrete-distributing boom which is constituted by a plurality of folding boom arms and rotationally mounted on a slewing gear on a chassis, and a tilt sensor for detecting a tilt of the truck-mounted concrete pump. According to this disclosure, the truck-mounted concrete pump is provided with a safety device which restricts the operating range of the concrete-distributing boom subject to a tilt of the pump, said safety device being coupled to the tilt sensor. The safety device is designed to limit the slewing motion on the slewing gear and/or the swiveling motion of at least one boom arm.
