- Optional Cat Detect technologies enhance awareness of the environment around the machine for increased safety.
Work In Comfort
Enhanced Operator Comfort
- Steering and Transmission Integrated Control System (STIC™) combines directional selection, gear selection, and steering into a single lever, maximizing responsiveness and control while reducing operator fatigue.
- Operators can easily enter and exit the cab with fold-up STIC steer/armrest, reduced access stairway angles, and standard stairway lighting.
- Experience reduced vibrations with isolated cab mounts and seat-mounted implement and steering controls.
- Reduced interior sound levels keep operators comfortable throughout their entire shift.
Reduce Environmental Impact
Improved Sustainability
