Active safety
                                          

                                     •Ergonomics
                                     •Hydrostatic transmission
                                    

                                     The first thing in the safe design of Avant is its basic construction.

                                            The operator has an excellent , unrestricted 3600 field of vision.

                                            Positioned in the front part of the machine, the operator’s seat is

                                            as close to the attachment as it can safely be. That is why Avant

                                            driver can always see what he is doing and where he is going

                                            Working with the machine is very easy and logical.

                                            Cockpit ergonomics is well thought out and all controls are

                                            well positioned.

                                            Hydrostatic transmission guarantees smooth and precise driving.

                                            The machine can be controlled very exactly both on low and

                                            higher drive speeds.

     •Safety frame
     •Seat belt
    

     Avant 200 series comes as

     standard with a safety frame,

     which is a four post structure

     that really protects the operator,

     for instance when driving

     backward and accidentally

     hitting an obstacle.

     Seat belt is standard equipment as well.
