Operator Comfort and Safety
Ergonomic Controls
Conveniently Located Foot Pedals
While traveling with foot pedals, the
operator can control the front attachment
with hands. The foot pedals, when not
in use, can be folded away for increased
foot space.
Easy-to-Read Monitor
The operator can always check machine
conditions at a glance. Fuel level, coolant
temperature and the status of various
other indicators are clearly displayed
on the large LCD monitor placed in the
front right position.

Rubber Mounted Floor
The cabin rests on 4 shock-absorbing
rubber mounts to ensure comfortable
operation.

Easy Maintenance
Tilt-Up Floor
The cabin floor can be tilted up for easy,
quick servicing even in the case of an
emergency. The floor can be tilted up
to 50º to allow the operator to work
under the cabin floor. It also gives direct
access to the swing mechanism and
starter motor behind the engine located
under the cabin floor. This design reduces
inspection and maintenance time.
