Operator Environment
Operators have an efficient and safe place to work from in the Spirit Delta cab. The specific design of the cab comes as a result of extensive research into the operators working conditions. The most important objective is to provide optimum visibility with no forward corner posts and big glass areas unobstructed so as to keep the field of vision clear. The instrumental panel is ergonomically designed and is gently rounded and extremely comfortable. This specific area has also been designed with an unobstructed clear view of all important info, in order to keep the operator working as effectively as possible.
Due to the insulated mounting to the chassis, overall noise levels and vibration levels are kept low. The hydraulic controls and the operators' seat are all independently adjustable that allows you to maintain an optimum working position. Additionally, the steering wheel and related panel is adjustable for maximum comfort. There are 2 easy to operate, ergonomically positioned multi-functioned levers that are offered for windscreen wipers, gear changing, the window washers and horn.
To guarantee a comfy cab temperature for the operator, a ventilation/heating unit provides incoming air which 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 recirculation, defrosting, cooling and heating. As an additional option, air conditioning could be fitted.
Instrumentation
In the Spirit Delta, the instrument panel has logically grouped units which are all within easy reach. Basic instrumentation consists of: high coolant temperature, low brake pressure, low engine and gearbox lubrication oil pressure, warning lamps, applied parking brake and high gearbox oil temperature. Moreover, gauges display values for fuel quantity, operating time, engine coolant and gearbox oil pressure.
Among the main options the 8 to 10 tonne trucks can be outfitted with is the ECS or Electronic Control System monitoring. This allows for easy supervision of the unit. All of the monitoring functions are handled by the ECS and incorporated by this system. The single warning lamp and the full text display show any errors which take place and their current values.
