Rear Access Egress System (RAES)
Attachment.
An optional manlift
replaces the left hand ladder and lifts or
lowers the operator or service technician,
personal belongings and tools safely on
and off the platform.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY. Daily and
routine maintenance should not pose a
safety hazard to your operator or service
technician. With the 993K, design effort
was taken to group service points with
convenient access. With the standard
service or optional deluxe service center,
technicians can plan daily maintenance
by checking fluid levels and machine
parameters. This allows the technician
to prep for required maintenance and
take all material on the bumper platform
at one time rather than make trips on
and off the machine to get required
maintenance components or fluids.

Bumper Service Center. Another key
safety service point is the Bumper
Service Center. A centralized service
center located at ground level on the left
hand, rear side of the 993K includes a
lockable battery disconnect (1), auxiliary
jump start receptacle (2), stairway light
switch (3) and engine shutdown switch
(4). This center also contains lockout
switches allowing your service technician
to perform routine maintenance while
ensuring the machine stays static.

Starter Lockout Switch (5). Key to
safety, another feature on the bumper
service center is a starter lockout that
stops the ability to start the machine,
which is often needed during service
procedures. The machine will still have
electrical power, however, the engine
cannot be started.

Transmission Lockout Switch (6).
The transmission lockout switch does
not allow the transmission to shift out
of neutral, even if running. This feature
is designed for service procedures that
requires machines to be running but
need the transmission disabled for
added safety.

SAFETY IN OPERATOR ENVIRONMENT.
The operator and safety go hand-in-hand.
Many features that enhance operator
comfort also aid in keeping your operator
safe from lowering noise levels to
design features that lower vibration and
repetitive motion. Key standard features
that aid operator safety include low
effort implement controls integrated
with the seat for ease of adjustment by
the operator, front windshield cleaning
platform with handrails and a seat belted
trainer’s seat for convenient operator
training on the job site. Additional safety
features include a cab filtration system
that removes dust and debris from the
cab air. Optional for dusty applications
is a cab pre-cleaner that reduces the
amount of dust prior to reaching the
cab filter.
