Yesterday's pictures are here!
Arived to the place at 07.15 in the morning, not a single worker at the place
Time to dismantle the crane for moving it
LTM 1130 has arrived, that's the one that is about to load all the counterweights etc on trailers. I got to borrow gloves, and I was "working for them" with fastening the straps of the things that would be lifted on the trailers  As "award", Havator paid my food when we ate in restaurant
Time to fold the legs!
The hook is really big, we almost couldn't get it above the ground!
Now it's time to move the crane.It will stand a bit away from where it was before (in the first pictures). We drove out to the highway, drove a bit and then turned to drive back where it will stay. The cab really had much space and good sight inside, but the road didn't .
Who is this?
Back again. Now it's time to put the gloves on, for loading on the trailers.
Here it is, in the middle of the closed highway!
King of the road
While the work with cutting of the bridge was going on, a beam fell down throguth the bridge, landed with on of the ends on the ground and then came to rest on the cab. The beacon could be pushed back again, but the beam caused some heavy scratches on the edge of the cab's roof. Also if you take a look at the left window, you see they have used tape to fasten a plastic glass-plate, that's because some days ago (in the night) some fu*kers crushed the window and stole the communication radio. D*MN! 
LTM 1130 has arrived - reversing!
That one will also have full counterweight
Time to mount the counterweights on the LTM 1500!
Time to prepare the superlift
The CW's are mounted!
The 50m long boom is almost fully extended. All extension are going to be 100% extended
Fully extended!
The orange straps takes 25t each
The lift will soon begin!
The straps are fastened!
Yay! The bridge part is lifted off. You can also see the wires from the superlift to the boomhead is tensed (compare with the picture above)
The best of all pictures!
The bridge weights about 45t
The sidewalk is about to be taken off.
Bye to the cranes and the Havator workers
