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 objective is to offer optimum visibility with no forward corner posts and large glass areas unobstructed to keep the field of vision clear. The instrumental panel is ergonomically designed and is gently rounded and really comfortable. This area has also been designed with an unobstructed clear view of all important information, in order to keep the operator working as efficiently as she or he could.
Vibration levels and noise levels are kept low due to the insulated mounting on the chassis. So that they can maintain an optimal working position, the hydraulic controls and operator seat are all individually adjustable. In addition, the steering wheel and related panel is adjustable for maximum comfort. There are 2 ergonomically positioned multi-functioned and easy to operate levers which are offered for the window washers, horn, gear changing and windscreen wipers.
To guarantee a comfy cab temperature for the operator, a ventilation/heating unit supplies 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 equipment has a robust 3-speed fan for defrosting, recirculation, heating and cooling. 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 comprise: warning lamps, low engine and gearbox lubrication oil pressure, high coolant temperature, low brake pressure, high gearbox oil temperature and applied parking brake. Moreover, gauges display values for gearbox oil pressure, engine coolant, fuel quantity and operating time.
The ECS or Electronic Control System monitoring is one of the important options on the 8 to 10 tonne trucks. These units make it easier to supervise the machinery. All of the monitoring functions are handled by the ECS or Electronic Control System and incorporated by this system. The full text display and the single warning lamp show any errors which happen and their current values.
