4.12 Emergency Exits
Familiarize yourself with the operation of emergency
exits and associated features prior to operation as
they allow escape from the cab in an emergency.
Standard Glass Door and Rear Window Escape:
Firmly grasp the triangular tag attached to the mold-
ing on either the door window or rear window. Pull
on the tag forcefully to remove the window molding,
then push or kick the window out to escape (fig.
4.12-2). Also applies to the 1/4” polycarbonate door.
1/2” Polycarbonate Door Escape: Firmly grasp the
red levers attached to the left side of the door
frame. Turn
both levers counter-clockwise and pull
them inward to remove and release the door from its hinges. Press down on the
door latch lever to release it from the cab, then forcefully push or kick the door off
of the hinges and discard to escape (fig. 4.12-1).
1/2” Polycarbonate Door Escape (non-emergency): Remove the spring clip
from the ball end of the gas spring where it attaches to the door. Separate the
gas spring from the door mount. Disconnect any hoses or wires tethering the door
to the cab. Turn the red levers counter-clockwise as described above, release the
door latch, then carefully lift and remove the door to escape.
Note: Ensure that door hinges, emergency exit levers (item 2, fig. 4.12-3) and
cams (item 1, fig. 4.12-3) are in place, secure and not damaged or distorted in
any way. If loose or damaged, replace worn components prior to operation.
