Note (1)	Cat cab and Rollover Protective Structures (ROPS) are standard in North America and Europe.
Note (2)	The declared dynamic operator Sound Pressure level per ISO 6396:2008*, when the cab is properly installed and maintained, is 75 dB(A). The labeled sound power level for the CE marked configurations when measured according to the test procedure and conditions specified in 2000/14/EC is 101 dB(A). Optional Low Sound or Blue Angel selection will reduce this to 99 dB(A).
Note (3)	*The measurements were conducted with the cab doors and windows closed.
