Abstract

A loader has an operator's station, comprising a cab with an operator's seat that is mounted on a pivot at the forward portions of the operator's station. An actuator is mounted between the operator's station and a loader frame to tilt the operator's station about the pivot a limited number of degrees when operating accessories mounted on a forward portion of the loader frame. The accessory is shown as a backhoe, and the forward tilting of the operator's station permits increased the downward field of view for an operator to observe the lower end of a digging arm of a backhoe at greater depths than with a fixed position operator's station.
