Scania R500 - Waage
We saw this Scania of Waage from Kristiansund (N) at a Scania dealer.
It's a R500 in 8x4 version, it was painted in the good looking colors of Waage.

Behind the standard sleepercab a HMF Thor is mounted. Here we can see clearly that this crane has very compact installation dimensions. The hydraulics tank is mounted between the cab and crane. It is a Thor K6 that extends 6x hydraulically to 15,6 meters where it will lift 3,87 tonnes. The also 6x extending jib makes that 28,5 meters, or even 32,5 meters with the 2 manual parts.

The Scania pulls a 2-axled Broshuis semi-lowloader.

This side has gotten a storage box between the axles. The tandem only has the single reduction axles (no planetary drive), the truck apparently isn't used for very heavy transport.

A very nice crane truck from Norway!
