OPERATOR’S STATION
• Overview and highlights of the The operator’s station (cab) for the 374F and 390F Hydraulic Excavator is the
374F and 390F cab: standard F-Series cab design, which integrates the Rollover Protective Structure
(ROPS) into the cab structure. The ROPS cab is compliant with industry safety
-- ROPS compliant for North regulations in North America and Europe. The cab features improved visibility and
America and the EU operator comfort.
The height of the implement joystick consoles and the armrests can be adjusted.
Conveniently placed switches, gauges, controls, and the information display on the
F-Series monitor enhance operator awareness and efficiency. Frequently used
switches and operator controls are placed for ease of accessibility and operation. A
wider seat with adjustable lumbar support helps reduce operator fatigue and can be
equipped with a seat heating and/or cooling option.
The cab can be equipped with a two-piece front windshield. Secondary egress
is accomplished through a hatch in the cab roof. A small hammer is also offered,
used to break glass for egress through other means in an emergency.
The F-Series monitor is a full color Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) that provides
vital operating and performance information in either metric or English units with
multiple language display capability in an easy-to-navigate format. The monitor
provides the service technician with diagnostic, configuration, and calibration
capabilities, as well as real-time status of most electronic devices and components
on the machine. The operator interface provides vital operation information at
start-up and during operation.
The monitor also displays warning information, filter and fluid change information,
and start-up level checks of hydraulic oil, engine oil, and engine coolant. An
optional rear view video camera can be displayed on the monitor screen, when
selected. Up to three separate video cameras may be viewed on the screen.
With the conveniently placed mirrors and the ability of the monitor to display images
from three video cameras, work site visibility for the operator in all directions has
greatly improved.
The soft switch panel includes ten switches (buttons), which serve to activate
machine features and functions. These same switches are numbered and also
serve as a keyboard for easily entering numbers in the F-Series monitor.
The radio is MP3 capable, giving operators the option of listening to their own
pre-recorded music.

• LCD Screen (5): The LCD screen displays a digital readout of the air
temperature at the air outlets, or the pre-set temperature, if in Auto Mode. The
screen also displays graphic representations of fan speed, air outlet selections,
A/C compressor operation, and defroster activation.
• Fan Speed Control (6): This control contains two soft switches that control
HVAC fan speed:
-- Fan Speed Increase Switch: Push the UP arrow switch repeatedly to
increase fan speed incrementally with each push.
-- Fan Speed Decrease Switch: Push the DOWN arrow switch repeatedly to
decrease fan speed incrementally with each push.
• Air Inlet Select Switch (7): Used to select the air inlet source for the HVAC
system. The switch toggles between these two selections:
-- Recirculate: When this air inlet position is selected, the outside air inlet is
closed. The air will be recirculated inside the cab.
-- Fresh Air: When this air inlet position is selected, the outside air inlet is
open. Fresh (outside) air will be heated/cooled and circulate into the cab.
• Defrost Switch (8): Used for defrosting or defogging the windows. The air
will also be dehumidified if the compressor is running. This selection directs
air flow out of the air outlets for the upper and lower windshields.
• Compressor Switch (9): Used to turn the compressor ON and OFF. Push the
switch in order to turn on the compressor or push the switch in order to turn off
the compressor. In humid conditions, the compressor may be used to remove
moisture from the air in the cab.
• 12 Volt Power Receptacle (10): A second power outlet is located to the rear
of the radio.
• MP3 Player Jack (12): The audio input jack is located beneath the rubber
dust cap. To listen to prerecorded music from an MP3 player, press the
AM/FM/AUX button (13) until the MP3 player is selected as an input.
All machines are equipped with a cab heater, but not all machines are equipped
with an air conditioner. Those machines that are not equipped with an air
conditioner do not have the compressor switch.
