7.24 Cab Tilt

The ROPS/FOPS approved cab (1) tilts up
to allow easy access to components
while performing maintenance or service.
It is equipped with a gas spring assist
and a brace mechanism to hold it in
place while tilted.
To tilt the cab:
1. Remove any attachments that may be fastened to the machine.
2. (Optional) Raise the lift arms and secure them with the lift arm brace per
section 5.14.
3. Remove the pre-cleaner from the intake duct located behind the cab.
4. Remove the two bolts (item 2) (4 for forestry) that fasten the cab to the
footwell. They are located along the upper edge of the footwell inside the
cab, one in each of the front corners (rear as well for forestry machines).
5. Once the bolts have been removed, tilt the cab slowly upwards. The cab
brace (3) should fall onto the shoulder bolt (4) locking the cab in its upright
position.
The cab is now secure.
To lower the cab:
1. Raise the cab brace so that the locking channel is clear of the shoulder bolt.
2. Hold the brace upwards and lower the cab until the locking channel is clear
of the shoulder bolt then release the brace.
3. The cab is now free to be lowered into operating position.
4. Lower the cab completely and then fasten it to the footwell with the bolts
removed previously.
5. Reinstall the pre-cleaner.
6. Lower the lift arms (if raised) per section 5.14.
