Features

Spacious & Comfortable Cab

With new interior designs, the cabs offer improved comfort for operators of any size. The designs feature a slimmer, more ergonomically positioned right meter panel, a double adjustable seat and greater head and foot space. The result is more room and greater comfort for the operator, and that means improved productivity on the job. As part of the new design, the cab is now equipped with a seat with a slide that can be double-adjusted to improve comfort. The joystick consoles on the left and right sides of the seat also can be adjusted independently of the seat to match individual operator requirements. An optional air suspension seat is also available for additional comfort.
