boom looks very Broyt to me Bri? and is VA ...... but STBC and bow to your superior knowledge

Brøyt was bought up by Åkermann.
The Brøyt maskin he now has is one of the very last Brøyts to be produced. Both Brøyt and Åkerman are written on the boom.
So it is made by Brøyt company that is owned by Åkermann.
As far as he has been told, only two or three more machines have been made after this copy.
Before Brøyt stopped production.

I did eventually decipher the Googleator version Frank ... was interesting ... those old Broyts were certainly built to last

I’ve seen that boom and stick on Ackermans, didn’t realise they’d taken over Broyt, so good spot Gra, and how on earth did SH manage to read Broyt from that picture? I still can’t see it. Was I right about the wagon?

I hope I Don't Break Your Heart, but it is a MAN 16.240 truck from 1975 has four-wheel drive, low series and diff locks

Not having a good day. Never seen a MAN with a long nose like that before, all the 4x4’s I’ve seen have had much less overhang over the front axle. Ah well, you live and learn. Can you put up more pictures for me to wrongly identify?

Per's machines are veterans
STRYN (AT.no): Per Hatledal has a machine park like no other. The plow is from 1982, while the MAN was new in 1975.

Per Hatledal will not exchange equipment with anyone. Because for what he does, the equipment works perfectly.
Not only does he have a Brøyt X21TL that he uses for most tasks. Ever since 1982, he has used the Montabert rig in combination with Brøyt excavators.
The engraver he now has is one of the very last Brøyts to be produced. Both Brøyt and Åkerman are written on the barrier.

ADAPTED: After 30 years with the same excavator, Per Hatledal has a system for everything.  Inside the door are all the smaller hand tools he needs.  Plus the helmet.

As far as he has been told, only two or three more machines have been made after this copy. Per Hatledal bought it used in 1990. Now it is approaching 30,000 hours by leaps and bounds, and the machine does the job just as well now as when it was new, according to the owner.
Customized
This machine has been adapted and rebuilt as the needs have arisen. Among other things, Per Hatledal had to convert to a 24 volt electrical system to be able to use it together with the drilling rig.
EXTRA: Per Hatledal has put on two extra weights at the back of the machine to improve the balance.

In addition, he has built on three extra weights at the back of the machine to stand more firmly when drilling. For the Montabert CPA 220 tower, it gets heavy when it is completely out at 7.5 to 8 meters that the machine reaches.
Always works
- What is so wonderful about this rig is that you can put it away and not use it for a few months. When you reconnect it, everything works as it should every time, says Per Hatledal.
PREPARATION: It is not every day that Per Hatledal uses the drilling rig.  But it seems every time no matter how long it has been since the last time.

The tower he uses now, he bought in 1991, and it is similar to the previous one he had. It is equipped with an HC 40 hammer, and he drills 7.5 meters deep holes without having to get out of the machine. That largely holds for what Per Hatledal needs. When he drills, it is usually with a 2.5 inch crown.
Many Brøyt excavators
Per Hatledal has several Brøyt excavators over the years. The first one he acquired was an X2B from 1972. Then it was replaced with an X20 which he used until the beginning of the 80's when he got the first belt machine which was an X20TL.
Since 1991 he has run the company Bergdrift AS. Only he and his daughter Anne Lise work there. Before he established Bergdrift AS, he ran with his brother, and at most they had 12 employees.
VETERAN: The MAN 16.240 truck from 1975 has four-wheel drive, low series and lock.  It provides a huge passability.

In addition to the usual digging and blasting jobs, they also run a sand roof. There they have a Komatsu 240 which is used to feed the crusher there. It is mostly the daughter who uses it.
Special car
Nor is the MAN truck he uses the very latest model. The car was registered for the first time in 1975, but Per Hatledal bought it used from Førde in 1979. The two-axle car has a technical total weight of 16 tons and only 240 horsepower.
Still, it takes a lot to fix Per Hatledal when he is on a trip with this car. In addition to four-wheel drive, there are both mechanical locks on both axles and reduction gears.
- It is only as far as it moves forward when it is fully geared down, but I always come forward, says Per Hatledal.
The car is no longer in daily use, but it is regularly out for a ride anyway. Now it is mostly used as a slightly large service car for excavation and blasting jobs.
Used bodywork
The body that sits on the car was already ten years old when Per Hatledal bought it. It was produced by Meiler in 1969. The dumper box that sits on the MAN is a dumper box in the true sense of the word.
It is built as a mining truck with a shield that goes forward and also covers the cabin. The tipping cylinder on the car is also special. There is only one extension on the cylinder that is double-acting. It goes reasonably straight backwards which in turn lifts a new arm and then the cash register.
- This is fantastic equipment. You do not get better graves than the Brøyt, says Per Hatledal.
