Milton CAT 994F - Manual (Page 11)

Spacious Cab Design. The 994F sets the
standard for productivity with advanced
controls and greater operator comfort.
Features include outstanding visibility,
excellent cab ventilation, interior sound
levels below 75 dBA, trainer seat, cup
holder, storage bin, radio ready and
more. Improvements made for increased
operator maneuverability and productivity.
Steering and Transmission Integrated
Control System (STIC). Combines
directional selection, gear selection and
steering into a single lever for maximum
responsiveness. Simple side-to-side
motion turns machine right or left.
Transmission shifting (forward/neutral/
reverse) is controlled by the operator’s
fingers, and gear selection is controlled
by the thumb. The integrated control
system delivers low effort controls for
smoother, faster cycles with less
operator fatigue.
Left Brake Pedal. Allows the impeller
clutch torque converter to modulate
rimpull from 100% to 25%. After 25%
is achieved, the brakes are engaged
for improved control and smoother
directional shifts. This improves speed
control when approaching the truck.
Cat Comfort Series Seat. With air
suspension and retractable seat belt
is designed for comfort and support.
Seat cushions reduce pressure on the
lower back and thighs while allowing
unrestricted arm and leg movement.
The seat is six-way adjustable and the
retractable seat belt remains off the
floor and is easy to reach for the operator.
Armrests are height and tilt adjustable.
Trainer seat. The trainer seat consists
of a padded seat and back with lap style
seat belt. When the trainer seat is not in
use, the back can be folded down and
used as a drink tray and there is a storage
compartment (room for a large lunch
cooler) under the seat.
Seat Mounted Pilot Hydraulic Controls
and Armrests. Provide low effort, control
for enhanced comfort and stability.
Controls and arm rests are fore, aft
and height adjustable to accommodate
operators of any size in a comfortable
operating position. The levers are
ergonomically designed for improved
operator comfort.
Vital Information Management System.
VIMS™ system is the standard display
system that provides information on
the machine’s major components and
systems. Gauge displays fuel tank level
and temperatures for engine coolant,
power train and hydraulic oil. Tachometer
is an analog gauge with digital readout
for gear selection. The Payload Control
System is included in VIMS system.
Automatic Kickouts. Lift, lower and
bucket tilt automatic kickouts are
adjustable electronically from the cab.
Throttle Lock. Allows the operator
to preset the engine speed, resulting
in faster cycle times and increased
productivity.
Rimpull Control System (RCS). Allows
operator to match rimpull settings to
job conditions with four-position dial.
Operator can adjust maximum rimpull
from 100% down to 90, 85, 75 and 65%
while in first gear. Matching rimpull to
job conditions provides greater traction
in slippery or rough conditions for
better performance and longer tire life.
Rimpull Control System Switch.
Turns RCS on and off.
