1. Make sure the area between the cab/canopy and
the chassis is clear before you lower the cab/
canopy.
2. Fold the cab/canopy maintenance strut back into
the stowed position and fix in place with pin from
a safe position
3. Lower the cab/canopy by slowly pushing on the
front steel tubes of the cab/canopy frame. Do
not push on the front glass if installed. The glass
could break.
4. Install the two rear mounting nuts and
compression plates to secure the cab/canopy.
Torque tighten to
Torque: 205N·m
The compression plate is critical for ROPS (Roll-Over
Protective Structure) integrity. Only replace with the
correct JCB approved part.
Never operate the machine with the cab/canopy in
the raised position. Always secure the cab/canopy
using the rear mounting nuts and compression
plates tightened to the correct torque. If they
are not installed the cab/canopy could tip forward
unexpectedly.
