Operator Environment
The Spirit Delta cab gives the operator an efficient and safe place to work from. The cab design is the end result of a major study of operators' working conditions. The most important goal is to provide optimum visibility with no forward corner posts and big glass areas unobstructed in order to keep the field of vision clear. The ergonomically designed instrument panel is extremely comfortable and gently rounded. This area has also been designed with an unobstructed clear view of all important info, in order to keep the operator working as effectively as she or he could.
Vibration levels and noise levels are kept low due to the insulated mounting on the chassis. To be able to maintain an optimal working position, the operator seat and hydraulic controls are all independently adjustable. Moreover, the steering wheel and related panel is adjustable for maximum comfort. There are 2 easy to operate, multi-functioned ergonomically positioned levers which are offered for the window washers, horn, gear changing and windscreen wipers.
A ventilation/heating unit guarantees a comfortable cab temperature for the operator. The incoming air is replaced by an air filter. This is easily replaceable and the unit slides out afterwards to make serviceability an easy option. The machine has a robust 3-speed fan for defrosting, recirculation, cooling and heating. As an additional option, air conditioning could be fitted.
Instrumentation
The instrument panel in the spirit delta cab has been logically grouped and are all accessible. The basic instruments that include: low engine and gearbox lubrication oil pressure, warning lamps, high coolant temperature, low brake pressure, applied parking brake and high gearbox oil temperature. Furthermore, gauges display values for operating time, fuel quantity, engine coolant and gearbox oil pressure.
Among the main options the 8 to 10 tonne trucks can be outfitted with is the ECS or also called Electronic Control System monitoring. This allows for easy supervision of the model. All of the monitoring functions are handled by the ECS and incorporated by this system. The full text display and the single warning lamp show any errors that take place and their current values.
