Large Comfortable Cab

Comfortable Cab 

New PC850-8’s cab offers an exceptionally comfortable

operating environment. The large cab enables full flat

reclining of the seat back with headrest.

Pressurized Cab

The optional air conditioner, air filter and a higher internal air

pressure (

6.0 mm Aq 

0.2" in Aq) prevent external dust

from entering the cab.

Low Noise Design

Noise level is remarkably reduced, not only engine noise but

also swing and hydraulic relief noise. 

Low Vibration with Cab Damper Mounting

PC850-8 uses a new, improved cab damper mount system

that incorporates longer stroke and the addition of a spring. 

The new cab damper mounting combined with a

strengthened left and right side deck, aids vibration reduction

at the operator’s seat.

Vibration at floor is reduced from 120 dB (VL) to 115 dB (VL). 

dB (VL) is index for expressing 
size of vibration.

Multi-position Controls

The multi-position, PPC (proportional pressure control)

levers allow the operator to work in comfort 

while maintaining precise control. A double-slide

mechanism allows the seat and control levers to move

together or independently, allowing the operator 

to position the controls for maximum 

productivity and comfort.

Safety Features

Step light with timer

provides light for about one 

minute to allow the operator to 

get off the machine safely.

Pump/engine room partition 

prevents oil from spraying on 

the engine if a hydraulic hose

should burst.

are

placed around high-temperature

parts of the engine and fan drive.
