OPERATOR ENVIRONMENT

Left and right entry/exit and uncluttered operator’s platform permits unobstructed operator movement and comfortable positioning when operating.

All attachment controls are located within easy reach from the operator’s seat. The seat swivels to provide operating comfort when working with rear-mounted attachments.

A swingaway catwalk lets you move freely to and from the operator’s compartment to the backhoe, yet allows easy service access to the engine.

The muffler is enclosed in the engine compartment, resulting in improved visibility to the front of the RT560.

Single key-start ignition and shutoff for fast and easy starts and stops. System gauges and indicator lights are grouped for high visibility. Gauges — engine coolant temperature, hydraulic oil temperature, voltage, fuel level, hourmeter, rpm’s. Indicator Lights — neutral indicator, engine oil pressure, alternator, air and hydraulic filter restriction.
