Caterpillar Forest Products Announces Cab Updates On The Track Feller Buncher Line


Cat Forest Products recently announced updates to the cab on the track feller buncher line, including the Cat 511, 521, 522, 532, 541, 551, and 552. The changes improve operator comfort and safety and machine durability.

According to Caterpillar, changes include a full-size sliding window on the left side of the cab allows more fresh air into the cab, an escape hatch above the operator’s head has a new quick release latch system to allow fast exit in an emergency (the operator just grabs and flips the latch to pop the escape hatch open), and window mounting brackets and hardware have been strengthened to prevent damage from falling debris, and the design simplified to eliminate potential leaks into the cab.
