Time to introduce myself

Post #1 by BertusL » Fri Feb 14, 2014 5:56 pm

Hello everyone.
I have been reading for hours on many subjects on this wonderfull website.
As a youngster at the age of 15 my first machine was a Cat 933 followed by many others, Cat 955, Cat 922, Cat D6B (my favorite all time machine), Cat D6C, Cat D8 22A, Cat D8 46A, Cat D8K, Cat D9G. Also worked with many hydraulic excavators Liebherr 921, 944, 961, Atlas 1702, Atlas 1902, O&K RH6LC, RH9LC, wheelloaders from Cat 922, Cat 966, Cat 988, Yale 404, Chaseside. Dragline Link Belt LS 108, LS 118 and many other machinery. Later on I started to work as a mechanic on earthmoving equipment and worked on projects in the Middle East, Africa and Europe.
Currently I am working as a planner coordinator in the sewage and wastewater industry for a major pump manufacturer, 10 years now, but thinking of going back to the earthmoving industry.

Best regards from the Lowlands,
Bertus.
