Free space around the operator has been increased and increased storage has been built into the cabin’s interior. Easier cabin access has been achieved by moving the door to the front. The operator’s seat is fully adjustable and ergonomic placement of joystick controls for drill and rod handling operations is designed to minimize fatigue. A side mounted rail to the right of the operator offers easy adjustment of monitors for rig control systems, reverse camera or DVD viewing, along with an easily accessible touch control panel for support functions.

The cabins feature an improved ventilation system that includes a relocated air intake, two-stage filtering and more effective heating and air conditioning. In addition to effective noise and vibration insulation, the new cabins offer increased protection that exceeds ROPS and FOPS requirements (19 metric tons for the D-series and 30 mt for the F- and L-series.) The new design also provides easy air filter replacement from ground level, and a service platform that enables access to the window for cleaning and changing wiper blades and which also doubles as a toolbox.
