Special product report: C-Series excavators from Case Construction Equipment
A full range of information is available in the machine data — or instrument – monitor screen, including engine mode, operating temperatures, an a gallons-per-hour fuel economy meter, much like the miles-per-gallon reading found on today’s cars.
The monitor also takes you through 10 attachment presets, with five settings for single-flow attachments such as hammers, and five settings for dual flow attachments, allowing you to quickly change between different types of attachments – and jobs.
“All of our cab changes were based on about 1,000 customer interviews,” O’Brien says. “Between our new rear camera, repositioned mirrors and low house and engine hood, we feel we’ve given users the operational confidence that comes with total 360-degree visibility.”
