Operator-First Designs: Easy-to-Handle Controls for Operator Comfort

Bi-Level Auto Air Conditioner and Pressurized Cab

The bi-level air conditioner allows air conditioning at foot space and overhead simultaneously. Airflow volume and direction can automatically be adjusted according to the temperature setting. The pressurized cab shuts out dust and debris even in dusty environment.

Front / Rear Defrosters

With the front and rear defrosters, airflow comes out from three front air outlets and two rear outlets to protect respective windows from fogging, keeping clear vision even in rain and cold weather.

Shock-Dampened Cab

The cab rests on fluid-filled elastic mounts to absorb shocks and vibration, and reduce resonance.

Hat (Resin Cab Roof)

The hollow hat is provided atop the cab to form an air space. This greatly helps reduce the temperature rise in the cab, and increases the cooling efficiency of the air conditioner.

Low Noise Design

The cab is well sealed, and the new low-noise engine is utilized to reduce sound, along with the following measures:

- Hydraulically operated cooling fan with heat-sensing system
- New Hitachi Silent (HS) fan
- Sound-absorbing materials inside engine cover and cab
- Clever arrangement of hydraulic oil tank and bulkhead

Ergonomically Positioned Switches and Controls

Switches and controls are efficiently laid out in the right console for ease of operation.

Down-Shift Switch (DSS) and Up-Shift Switch (USS)

DSS and USS are designed for one-gear down-shift and up-shift at the touch of a button.

Panoramic Cab

The panoramic cab gives almost all-round visibility with the widened front glass window and pillar less cab rear corners. Front wheels are always in the operator's vision, enhancing safety and increasing loading efficiency.

Enhanced Upward Visibility

The front curved glass window gives good upward visibility, so the operator can directly see the movement of the bucket for safer loading.

Good Rear Visibility

The engine cover is low profile, and rounded for better rear visibility, so the operator can directly see the rear wheels and counterweight.

Comfort-Designed Suspension Seat

The mechanical suspension seat well absorbs shocks and vibrations from the machine body to reduce operator's physical stresses for enhanced comfort.
The air suspension seat is an option.

Multi-Functional Joystick Lever (Optional)

The multi-functional joystick lever is provided atop of the control lever for operating ease.

Adjustable Steering Column

The steering wheel is tiltable, and telescopic to suit operator of all builds for comfortable operation.
