Canopy
The canopy has been specially designed for protection in case of an
accident.
• ROPS/TOPS tested canopy.
• Level I protective FOPS structure (option); protective structure against
falling objects.
• Shatter protection (option); protective structure against fragments
flying around from the front.
The machine is not available with a closed cab.
Therefore, a restricted work range applies to work with attachments
(hammer, for example) that can cause fragments to fly around (–
see chapter “ Shatter protection (option)” on page 4-15, figure.
Installing a protective Front Guard structure according to EN 474-5 (item
5.3.2.1) is not possible. Only perform work that does not require a
protective Front Guard structure.

Level II:
Protection against heavy falling objects (FOPS) or heavy objects
penetrating into the cab from the front (Front Guard), such as trees,
