BiG X V8/V12 & BiG X 500-1000: With the Command-Vision-cab, KRONE has developed a large-dimensioned cab incorporating all the latest ergonomic factors. Comfort, safety, efficiency and productivity for example the largest leg area in its class. It is spaciously designed, you have more area to work and more area to relax. Climate-control, air-ride seat, cool box and buddy seat are all standard Features.

BiG X 600-1100 and BiG X 480-630: The new and open-plan Silent Space cab was developed to the latest ergonomic standards. The wide cab with its narrow posts is spacious and gives the operator the best possible view of wide headers. The double floor keeps noise in the cab to a minimum. Sixteen H9 lights provide perfect illumination, and LED lights are available as an option.

BiG X 680-1180: High side windows and slim posts give the operator an unobstructed view of all processes. No matter the conditions – rain or dust – BiG X operators always enjoy a clear view thanks to three optional wipers on the front window, two on the side windows and one on the rear window. All wipers have water jets.

Cockpit

All controls are arranged on the right-hand side where they should be. The operator has everything within grasp and insight. What’s special about the joystick, there is over 20 functions programmed in – that means when chopping you never have to take your hand off to adjust anything. Attention to detail again. Also the arm rest is connected to the seat so it moves with you, not against you. Color EasyTouch terminal is a full 7" high definition display that can either be navigated via “SpeedDial” or direct on the screen. There is three regions, Engine, Transmission and Chopping info – all these can be called up for more detail information if required.

The ergonomic joystick with user-friendly icons gives the operator fingertip control of multiple machine functions. Designed specifically for BiG X, the slim stick sits comfortably in the hand. With more than 20 programmed functions, it not only controls ground speed and direction of travel but also the header and spout. The clearly designed control unit next to the seat houses all controls that operate the various machine functions, including ground drive and cutterhead drive.

All controls including the joystick, the screens and the terminals are designed to ergonomic standards and in easy reach from the operator seat. The big 12" terminal with USB drive and a video input records all the machine data and displays them on the high-defi nition colour screen. The screen can show the footage from the reverse drive camera and the camera on the spout.

KRONE LiftCab

If the BiG X is specified with a LiftCab, it will be possible to raise the complete cab to any height up 70 cm. From the raised position operators enjoy a full overview of the tall stands and can easily monitor the filling processes. As another advantage, the raised cab increases the distance between the operator and the chopping assemblies thereby reducing the noise level at operator’s ear.

High-sided trailers can be a problem for the forager operator who has to determine when the trailer is filled to capacity. In this situation, raising the cab by 70cm is a big help.Whether the trailer is travelling alongside or behind the forager, the operator has always a clear view of the load area and can ensure optimum fills.
