TILTABLE CABIN
A vehicle with a manual controlled hydrostatic pump and a pod that can be rotated between an open position and closed position without disconnecting operator controls in the pod from the manual controlled hydrostatic pump. The pod may also be physically isolated form the vehicle frame.

MECHANICAL CONTROL LINKAGE
A mechanical linkage between operator input devices and actuators including a junction having a first portion operably coupled to an operator input device and a second portion operably coupled to an actuator. The first and second portions of the junction are connected when a cab is in an operating position and disconnected when a cab is in a service position. When connected, the first and second portions create a solid connection between the operator input device and the actuator. When the first and second portions are disconnected, the operator input will be not be operably coupled to the actuator. Movement of the cab to the operating position will cause the first and second portions to become connected and movement away from the operating position will cause the first and second portions to become disconnected.

System for controlling tilting of a cab for a commercial vehicle
A system for controlling tilting of a cab for a commercial vehicle includes: a tilt switch receiving a user's tilt-up or down request; a drive unit tilting up or down the cab of the commercial vehicle; a front detection sensor installed on the cab of the commercial vehicle detecting an obstacle in front of the vehicle; and a control unit identifying whether the user's request is a tilt-up or down based on a lapse of time during the tilt switch is pressed, controlling the drive unit to tilt up or down the cab in accordance with the identification of the tilt-up or down, and stopping a tilt-up operation of the drive unit when an obstacle is detected by the front detection sensor within a predetermined distance during the operation of the drive unit.

Arrangement and method for levelling a cab of a work machine
A cabin (12) of a mobile work machine (10) is adaptable to a frame of the work machine by means of an arrangement (1) which comprises longitudinal levelling means (2) for levelling the cabin in the direction of longitudinal tilting (A) of the work machine, and transverse levelling means (20) for levelling the cabin in the direction of sideward tilting (H),transverse in relation to the longitudinal direction (B) of the work machine, with respect to transverse pivoting axle (J). The transverse pivoting axle extends in a substantially orthogonal horizontal direction in relation to the longitudinal pivoting axle (C), and is adapted at a lower height than the longitudinal pivoting axle.

UTILITY VEHICLE
A utility vehicle including an operator cab, an operator support positioned within the operator cab and movable relative to the operator cab, a mirror positioned outwardly relative to the operator cab, and a control system including a controller in communication with the operator support and the mirror. The controller is configured to select a first setting from a first plurality of settings and a second setting from a second plurality of settings. Each setting of the first plurality of settings corresponding to one of a plurality of operations performed by the vehicle and each setting of the second plurality of settings corresponding to one of a plurality of operators. The controller is configured to adjust at least a position of the support relative to the cab and a position of the mirror relative to the operator cab based on the first setting and the second setting.
