Contoured Viewing Panel
The shape of the viewing panel was designed to put the operator above the work with a glare free view of all
parts of the work area.
The viewing panels are hinged and can be raised to more than a 90-degree angle to provide easy access for
larger items (shocks or chains are provided to support the window in the open position). To remove the panel, it
is recommended that two people work together, one at each end. Before removal, unplug the light housing cord
from the electrical outlet located at top right corner and remove the small snap ring from the right-most hinge.
If the unit has shocks, they must be detached prior to removal. Next, raise the viewing panel until it is parallel
to the floor and slide the panel toward the right side, completely separating the split hinges. Be sure to replace
snap ring aer use.
