Milton CAT 962K - Manual (Page 8)

Operator Environment
Safe. Comfortable. Efficient.
Conventional Steering
The conventional steering configuration offers a low-effort
hand metering unit hydraulic steering system. Load sensing
steering directs power through the steering system only when
needed. The optional Command Control Steering is still
offered on the 962K and is a load sensing system that links
the steering wheel and frame angle positions to provide the
proper amount of steering control. Full machine articulation
is accomplished with a ± 70 degrees turn of the wheel versus
two or three 360 degree turns on a conventional steering wheel.
Implement Controls (EH)
Seat mounted single axis implement control levers provide
the operator with precise control of the work tool, all
while moving with the seat for maximum comfort. In cab
programmable kick-outs and automatic cylinder snubbing
maximize operator comfort and productivity throughout
their shift. Optional implement joysticks are available for
2V, 3V, and 4V hydraulics.
Seat
The Cat Optimized Seating System is 6-way adjustable to
accommodate operators of all sizes. The seat has a one piece
high back that supports the lumbar area of the back up through
the shoulders. Both armrests are large and can be adjusted
up, down, fore, and aft to enhance comfort and convenience.
An optional feature for the cab seat is a heated backrest
and cushion.
Automatic Climate Control and Air Quality
The new climate control system automatically adjusts the air
temperature and fan speed to maintain the operator’s preferred
climate setting. The cab air filtration system recirculates
90% of the cab air and is now serviced from outside the cab,
enabling maximum air quality and cab cleanliness. The new
air conditioning sealing system keeps refrigerant contained
preventing system shutdown. Combined together, the operator
remains efficient and productive all shift long due to a
sustainable work environment.
Information Display
The central display panel has a large text box, five analog
like gauges, and LED warning indicators. The large text box
provides in-language information about machine operation,
feature activation and system troubleshooting and calibration.
With the 5 large analog-type gauges the operator can easily
identify if key systems are within normal operating range.
A resettable trip totals function has been incorporated to
display information for average fuel consumed, total fuel
consumed, idle fuel, idle time, operating hours, odometer, etc.
