CAB
Introduction
The cab has been designed for operator protection,
comfort and convenience. Inside, the frame, roof,
and floor are insulated to reduce noise to a minimum.
A wide opening door on the left--hand side permits
entry to the cab aided by convenient grab handles and
footsteps with anti--slip treads. The door and rear
window are fitted with gas struts to hold them in the fully
open position. Additionally, the rear window may be
retained in the partially open position for increased
ventilation during operation.
The cab features include a fresh air heater/defroster
with recirculation, air conditioning, sun visor, tinted
glass, interior light, auxiliary power socket, storage
facilities, interior/exterior rear view mirrors and a choice
of comfortable seats.
Options include automatic climate control, high visibility
roof panel, radio cassette, CD player, rear windscreen
wash/wipe and electrically operated external rear view
mirrors.

Entering and Exiting the Cab
Wherever possible, the cab should be entered from
the left side. The right--hand door should only be
used in emergencies to exit the cab.
To enter the cab, face the door, then open it. Place
one foot on the lowest step plate and, using the grab
handles on the ‘A’ post and inside the door, climb the
steps and enter the cab.
Sit in the seat and, where necessary, adjust the seat
controls to provide a comfortable working position.
