ROPS

ROPS Cab (Roll Over Protective
Structure)
The cab is designed to ensure minimum crash
protection space according to the standard
currently being developed by the International
Standard Organization.
NOTE!
Do not jump out of cab if the machine should roll
over. Keep stay in seat wearing seat belt.
Protection from falling or scattering materials
(optional equipment)
The cab is made from toughened glass. This allows
the cab to be certified Operator Protective Guards
level 1 (OPG1) when the front windscreens are in
place and locked down.
Toughened glass will protect the operator from
debris projection for example during breaker
operations.
To comply with Operator Protective Guards level 2
(OPG2), machines must be equipped with:
An additional top protective structure made of
solid steel plates. This guard will protect the
operator from an object of 227Kg (500lb) falling
from 5.2 meter (17 ft) above the cab.
An additional front protective structure made of
solid steel plates. This guard must absorb 5800 J
energy to protect the operator from large objects
approaching from the front.
