Steel Tandem Walkways. Perforated
raised steel walkways cover the tandems.
This provides a sturdy platform for
standing and walking, and additional
protection for the brake lines.
ROPS/FOPS Cab. Isolation mounted
to the frame to reduce vibration and
sound, the integral ROPS/FOPS
structure meets ISO and SAE criteria
for operator protection.
Circle Drive Slip Clutch. This standard
feature protects the drawbar, circle and
moldboard from shock loads when the
blade encounters an immovable object.
It also reduces the possibility of abrupt
directional changes in poor traction
conditions, protecting the machine,
operator and surroundings.
Blade Lift Accumulators. This optional
feature uses accumulators to help absorb
impact loads to the moldboard by
allowing vertical blade travel. Blade lift
accumulators reduce unnecessary wear
and help to avoid unintended machine
movement for increased operator safety.
Dual Exits. The operator has dual
exits from the machine allowing for
emergency egress should one side
become obstructed. If the machine is
not equipped with the optional right
hand door, a hammer is mounted in
the cab for emergency exit.
Engine Shutoff Switch. An engine
shutoff switch is located at ground level
on the left rear of the machine, allowing
anyone nearby to shut it down in case
of an emergency.
Electrical Disconnect Switch. A battery
disconnect switch, located inside the
left rear enclosure, provides ground-
level lockout of the electrical system
to prevent inadvertent starting of
the machine.
Rear Fenders. To help reduce objects
flying from the tires, as well as build-up
of mud, snow and debris, optional rear
fenders can be added.
Additional Safety Features. The 14M
has many additional standard safety
features, including laminated glass on
the front windows and doors, back-up
lights and sounding alarm, black glare-
reducing paint on the front frame and
engine enclosure, lockable doors, and
conveniently located grab rails for
added safety.
