which are provided a steering control 16 and an auxiliary hydraulic device control 17.
Thus, the operator may control the steering of the vehicle by use of the steering control 16
and may control the operation of associated hydraulic equipment, such as the bucket
controlling hydraulic equipment 18. As shown in Figure 2, the cab 13 defines an upright
sidewall portion 33, and a cover portion 34. In addition, the cab may be provided with a
conventional operator seat 35, and a plurality of cover plates 36. A floor portion 30 of the
cab includes a plurality of openings, such as openings 37 and 38. Opening 37 is adapted
to permit the upward extension therethrough of the steering control 16 and opening 38 is
adapted to permit the upward extension therethrough of the auxiliary hydraulic device
control console 17.
