FAQ

What engine powers the 5700C and what are its specifications? +

The Power Curber 5700C is equipped with a Cummins QSB4.5-130C diesel engine. This 4-cylinder, 4-stroke turbocharged engine is Tier III emissions compliant and produces 130 HP (97 kW) at 2400 RPM. The fuel tank holds 250 liters (66 gallons), providing extended operating time between refueling.

What are the physical dimensions of this machine? +

The 5700C measures approximately 6.1 meters (20 feet) in length, 2.6 meters (8.5 feet) in width, and 3.2 meters (10.5 feet) in height with the exhaust stack (2.5 meters without). The hydraulic reservoir holds 189 liters (50 gallons). This compact size allows the machine to navigate tight spots like parking lot corners and cul-de-sacs.

What types of concrete work can the 5700C perform? +

The 5700C is a versatile slipform paver capable of pouring curbs, gutters, sidewalks, barriers, parapets, irrigation ditches, and pathways. The standard configuration handles curbs and sidewalks up to 2 meters (6.5 feet) wide in offset position or 3 meters (10 feet) in center pour position. Barrier heights up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) are possible.

How fast does the machine operate? +

Travel speed ranges from 0 to 110 feet per minute (33.5 meters/minute). During actual pouring operations, the machine operates at 0 to 50 feet per minute (15 meters/minute). The slower pouring speed ensures consistent concrete placement and proper consolidation for quality results.

How much production can I expect from this machine daily? +

Under typical conditions with a trained crew, the 5700C can pour approximately 2,000 linear feet (600 meters) of standard curb and gutter per 8-hour day. Production varies based on project complexity, concrete supply, site conditions, and crew efficiency. More complex applications like barriers or wider sidewalks reduce daily output.

What makes the 2014 Power Curber 5700C's control system unique? +

The 2014 Power Curber 5700C features Smart Amp digital amplifiers that provide electronic-over-hydraulic control for grade, steering, and slope. This system offers the simplicity of analog controls with digital precision. The machine can operate with GPS and laser guidance for stringless paving, or with traditional stringline systems for grade reference.

How many operators and crew members are needed for 2014 Power Curber 5700C? +

A typical crew consists of 5 people: one operator running the machine from the control station, two workers preparing and loading concrete, one worker finishing behind the machine, and one worker handling stringline or grade stakes. Experienced crews work more efficiently and achieve higher daily production.

What mold configurations are available for this 2014 Power Curber 5700C? +

The 2014 Power Curber 5700C comes with one standard mold up to 813mm (32 inches) wide with a quick-release system. Molds are interchangeable, allowing contractors to switch between different curb profiles, gutter shapes, and barrier configurations. Custom molds can be fabricated for specialized applications like decorative curbing or unique municipal specifications.

Can the 2014 Power Curber 5700C pour on both sides? +

The standard 2014 Power Curber 5700C is configured for left-side pouring. However, the dual-side pouring option allows the machine to work off either side. Changeover from left to right side takes approximately 3 to 4 hours. This feature is valuable for highway projects where you must pour with traffic or in situations with limited site access.

Is this 2014 Power Curber 5700C suitable for residential or commercial work? +

The 2014 Power Curber 5700C excels at both residential and commercial applications. Its compact size makes it ideal for residential subdivisions with tight spaces, while its robust construction and production capacity handle large commercial projects like shopping centers, parking structures, and municipal street programs efficiently.

What is the routine maintenance schedule of 2014 Power Curber 5700C? +

Daily maintenance includes checking hydraulic oil levels before starting, performing visual inspections for leaks or damage, and greasing moving parts. Hydraulic filters should be changed at 50 hours on a new machine and every 250 hours thereafter. Engine oil and filters follow standard diesel maintenance intervals. Power Curbers provides detailed lubrication schedules and grease point diagrams.

How accessible are replacement parts and service support? +

2014 Power Curber 5700C, now part of the Wirtgen Group (John Deere), offers same-day parts shipments from their Salisbury, North Carolina facility. The company maintains a robust technical support department with quick response times. Common wear items and filters are readily available. As a widely-used model manufactured from 2007-2019, parts availability for the 5700C is excellent.

What are the most common wear items to budget for? +

Primary wear items include mold components (vibrators, rubber seals, strike-off plates), track pads (especially polyurethane pads), hydraulic hoses, hydraulic filters, engine filters, and conveyor belts. Concrete vibrators require periodic replacement depending on usage intensity. Budget for annual maintenance costs of approximately 10-15% of the machine’s value.

How is the 2014 Power Curber 5700C transported between job sites? +

The 2014 Power Curber 5700C can be loaded onto a standard flatbed trailer without requiring a lowboy. Loading and unloading is quick using the machine’s own power. The compact dimensions and weight distribution make it relatively easy to transport. The machine can also self-load onto trailers using its hydraulically powered crawler tracks.

What training is required to operate this 2014 Power Curber 5700C effectively? +

2014 Power Curber 5700C operates a state-of-the-art training center at their manufacturing facility, offering comprehensive training programs each winter. New operators typically require 3-5 days of hands-on training to become proficient with basic operations. Advanced features like stringless paving with GPS require additional training. The company provides detailed operator manuals and instructional videos covering all aspects of operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
