An ergonomic approach to design and fitting out of the cab, covering 14 aspects, is given: visibility (visual field in the normal sitting posture, leaning forward, and standing); seat (design, adjustment, position); control elements (design, layout); information display; minimum dimensions of cab; access (stairway, ladder, platforms); communications (intercom, telephone, hand signals); microclimate and ventilation (ventilator with electric radiator): lighting; noise isolation; vibration absorption; emergency exit; sanitary facilities and place for personal effects. |
