3 Description and Operation
3.1.4 Seating
Suspension-Type Seats
All Kalmar tractors have an air suspension-type seat as
standard equipment.
Due to the vertical travel of suspension seats, the
operator must ensure that there is adequate head
clearance when the seat is at the top of its upward travel.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
Seat Adjustment
Refer to the seat manufacturer's information packet provided
with the vehicle or to the decal located on the seat base. Your
local Kalmar dealer can assist with any questions.
Adjust the seat to the comfortable position for the operator to
have full control of all cab controls and displays. This position
is obtained by changing the air pressure in the suspension,
which changes the height. The fore and aft position is obtained
by moving the seat cushion back on its slides. Once this
position is achieved, tighten the seat belt tether securely on
both sides. The tether will restrain the seat from raising above
this position. Now, the seat air suspension may be adjusted to
the operator's desired firmness.
Do not adjust the driver's seat unless the vehicle is
parked. The seat could move suddenly and unexpectedly,
resulting in loss of control of the vehicle, serious injury or
death.
The Kalmar tractor is designed and equipped to carry only
the driver (unless built with a trainer seat). Never allow
anyone to ride anywhere inside or outside of the cab.
Carrying a passenger is extremely dangerous and can
result in serious injury or death. NEVER CARRY
PASSENGERS WITH YOUR KALMAR TRACTOR.
