PhosAgro Group in Russia. Traveling between the erection pad and the pit, this AC machine is using a method I have not seen before. Instead of a mobile generator supplying power, the undercarriage travel motors have been connected to the boom and bucket hydraulic circuits of the Caterpillar 992 seen behind it and the loader operator is "driving" both units simultaneously! I can imagine this was a very slow and stressful journey.
