Thank you so much for your kind feedback!🙏🤗 I do my best to earn the trust to be assigned to this machine, I really appreciate that recognize my efforts!🤩😊
I have always admired your ability to be smooth and extremely productive with the machines you operate.😜👍 This video demonstrates two other aspects of this operation.One thing that is very obvious is the great job Cat did in the design of this machine, it is so well balanced and has a great ass end. There is virtually no rock and roll to the machine considering where you are sitting, the other thing that is obvious is you company has a very experienced blasting crew that works for them. I noticed you only set one big rock aside, do they come out to the site to hammer them or do you load them at some time and they hammer them up near the crusher? Keep up the good work. 😜👍 Bill W
Thank you so much, Bill!🙏😋 Your comments always keep me smiling, I really appreciate your feedbacks that tells me that I have shown something professional!🤗 Jepp, I feel that Cat has done a great job too!!🤩 The machine became even steadier after rebuilding the bucket, my guess is that it got just a bit heavy when fully loaded earlier! My days has been a lot more comfortable now, even with the need for one more cycle to every truck load!😋 I guess every machine has its limits, and when the bucket weighed 8,5 tons originally - and carried 12 - 15 tons of material, that limit was close..🤪 It feels more steady now, with 8 tons of weight - carrying about 10 tons of material!!😊 Yes, the blasting crew deserves some credit for their job on this site!🙂 Of course, everyone can suffer unfortunate results sometimes, but they do have great experience! Our company started out as a blasting company back in 1974, and our founder was the first in Norway to by a drill rig!!🤩 Before that, every blast was prepared by hand held air hammers all over Norway by the old “rallar” crews..😅 My boss really turned the table in the entire construction business back then, and has really specialized in large production blasts ever since!! We are building a industrial site here, and we have some standards to work by!😋 We don’t fill with large rocks, so I have to be aware of what I load the trucks with. I have a simple system to alert the trucks, when I signal them one time - the load is for the D8 on the quality fill, if I signal them twice- the load is of large rocks that are dumped on other locations!🙂 We don’t load too large rocks, they are put to side for breaking.😋 We don’t have a crusher here yet, but we’ll bring one in during the winter, to crush gravel for roads and trenches! Thanks for watching and for your comment, once again!🙏😋 They surely means a lot to me!🤗
Watched the entire 30 min not boring !! The 4 tooth bucket seems to work very well in that type material as opposed to the 5 tooth in the earlier comparison video. I am assuming the loaded material goes to the rock crusher, if so.........what is the finished material used for ? Noticed some light snow meaning temps are below 32 degrees, does Cat have a good cab hear ?? The 390F appears to be well balanced no rocking with loaded bucket during the swing cycle. John Deere here in America says "Nothing like a Deere" one can say around the world there is "NOTHING LIKE CATERPILLAR" Here in America you will first see at work sites Caterpillar followed by either Volvo and or John Deere.
Thank you so much!🙏😁 Yes, I think the bucket works well, took some time to get used to it though!😅 Jepp, winter is upon us, so there is sometimes snow in the air now a days! The cab is really great, the climate system always keeps the cab warm and and the windows clean of dew!😋 It keeps me cool in the summer as well, and with a great seat with both heating and fan powered air cooling - the environment in the cab is great!!😁 The rock we load and haul, I laid out by a dozer! The project is about building a industrial site, so all of the rock is moved to fill up and even out valleys at the site!😋 There is coming a crusher later on to produce gravel for the finish work, but for now we do the heavy lifting of the materials! Yes, the balance of the machine is just great, and got even better with the new design of the bucket - that also saves the weight of it with almost 500 kilos down to 8 tons!😋 Here in Norway, Cat and Volvo are about sharing the leading role of the brands, followed by Hitachi, Komatsu and Kobelco. We do also have some spread use of Case and Liebherr, but I my opinion - Cat is best!!😊 Thanks for watching and for your comment!🙏😁
I don't know how missed this, vid lol. Smooth operation keep it up. How many pounds or tons were loaded and I'm sure this blasted granite was crushed. So this has to be heavier than regular rock stone being blasted granite.
Hehe, this was my first shift on the 390 at this project I have been on since December!😅 Same blasted granite that you have seen handled the past 6 months, and the same payloads of about 50 tons hauled to the D8T dozer!😋 I was really exited back then, since I hadn’t operated the 390 since April earlier that year!🤪 This was the start of the project that we are soon to complete, so all rock was going to embankment works to build this 200 acres industrial site!😊
Hei!🙂 Nå er jeg i Porsgrunn kommune, på et industripark prosjekt!😋 Ja, hvordan er det å være maskinfører i Oppdal for tiden da? Er vel greit med snø der nå vel?
Hei! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!🙏 I do agree that this wasn’t the best angle, but I didn’t have time to run around and place my camera exactly where I wanted. I was trying out angles back then, so I just had to run out with it when there was no trucks coming. 🙃 And they were coming all the time..😅
Hi!🙋♂️ Yes, i would say that I hauled my share, both with road trucks and dump trucks!😋 But nothing regular, my main task had been on excavators, and with trucks, dozers and wheel loaders as reserve operation in between! Why? Is there something you reacted to?🤓
Hehe, most of us drive without shoes, since we sit in the cab for 4 hours before we go out to brakes og home.😉 It keeps the environment in the cab so much better, without dust and shit everywhere! We spend more time in our cabs than home, so the idea is to make the cab as comfortable as home!🤪😅 The last project I was on, was on an island where they deposit hazardous waste. Out there it was prohibited to wear the shoes when in cab, to prevent polluted dust from entering the cab, causing us injuries and so on.. So it is both a healt issue, that makes my day more comfortable and clean!😉
i don't want to put anyone down or speak to you unkind , but to be honest i think it Sounds like Shit its all choked up with epa shit , If you think this thing sounds good you ain't been in the heavy equipment trade very long or around Real Cat diesels very long. "Thats the way i see it Pilgrim"
Hehe, you are allowed to have what ever opinion you want!😉 Well, I have been long enough in the business to remember the sound of old Cat’s, and I must agree that the sound of the old ones were something special! However, with these times insane emission standards, there are only approved new machines with all these extra environmental systems at public contracts.. The real sound of the machines disappeared with the D series, but was already then faded since the first of the 3 series and the end of the old 2’s.😄 For me, this one sounds way better than any other brand on the market today, so this is only my opinion towards what’s possible to get these days! I’ll leave your opinion to yourself, but thanks for watching anyway!🙏
@@ArthurDentZaphodBeeb well, it could be the camera..😅 I was only filming with my phone.. Meanwhile, I did have a minor breakdown a week after this video was made, where one of the injectors broke.. 😝
i cant stop watching for some reason. thanks lol
Hehe, I won’t complain about that!😅 Thanks for your enthusiasm, I really appreciate it!🙏🤗
Love that 390. The counterweight swing is just incredible.
Very nice to see the big boys toys play in the dirt just like you said nice to hear the muscle in the machine
It's great that you load each truck to its full maximum and not spilling the material over the sides.
what a beautiful type of day to be in that awesome machine!!!
Amazing! The 390 is such a beautiful machine and you operate it so well.
Thank you so much for watching and for your comment!🙏😋
Great machine, I like hearing the sound of it.
Awesome machine and you as well
Thank you so much for your kind feedback!🙏🤗

Well done ..well done my friend 😀😀😀
Thank you very much!🙏🙂
Nice heavy lifting of some big rocks!!..awesome!.
Thank you!🙏😊
Great machine
Lovely machine...great operator! Best regards from Roumanie...♥️♥️💪🏻
Thank you!🙏 I do my best!😊
Best regards back from Norway 🇳🇴
Next time give us a size comparison of the bucket by standing beside it or in it lol.
Hehe, I did that in my previous video, where I started the video with a picture of me beside the bucket!😉👌
