Cab and Covers
4.6 CAB INSTALLATION
1. Block all four wheels to help prevent the vehicle from
moving. Assure that there is sufficient overhead and
side clearance for cab installation.
2. Attach a clevis (8 and 9) to each of the cab lifting
brackets. Route a sling (10) with a suitable lifting
capacity to carry the weight of the cab through the
clevis’ to a hoist or overhead crane. Make sure the
sling is centered between the clevis’ to ensure even
lifting.
3. Use a hoist or overhead crane and sling attached to
the cab. Carefully begin to align the cab with the
mounting holes in the frame. Stop and check that
wiring, hydraulic hoses, cables, etc., will not be
pinched or damaged as the cab is positioned.
Readjust the position of the sling as needed to help
balance the cab during installation.
4. Install the two upper capscrews (11) and two flat
washers (12). Torque the capscrews to 480 lb-ft
(651 Nm).
5. Install the two lower capscrews (13) and two flat
washers (14). Torque the capscrews to 480 lb-ft
(651 Nm).
6. Route the throttle cable (on serial numbers so
equipped) through the opening in the bottom of the
frame, along the front of the transmission, along the
hydraulic hoses on the right side of the frame and
through the openings in the frame to the engine
compartment.
7. Secure the throttle cable to the hydraulic hoses
using wire ties.
8. Install the throttle cable (7) on the throttle cable
bracket (6), using a clamp (5) and two slotted pan-
head screws (4), two lockwashers and two hex nuts.
Note: ALWAYS replace elastic-lined nuts with new
elastic-lined nuts to help ensure proper fastening.
9. Connect the throttle cable rod end (2) to the throttle
lever extension bracket (3) using one new elastic
locknut (1).
Continue with next step for all serial numbers.
10. Vehicles equipped with auxiliary hydraulic only:
Install the auxiliary hydraulic joystick assembly.
(Refer to Section 4.3.7, b. “Auxiliary Hydraulic
Joystick Installation.”)
Note: ALWAYS use new o-rings when servicing the
vehicle.
11. Install new o-rings into the fittings. Lubricate the o-rings
with clean hydraulic oil.
12. Working under the cab, connect the hydraulic hoses
(15 thru 22) at the cab fittings.
