In Reply to: Hiniker Cab ? posted by David Broad on September 10, 2011 at 16:31:59:
Never thought I would get so many replies . Thankyou to you all . It seems that it was some sort of safty cab . One thing that did prompt me to ask was that a long time back in Classic Tractor there was a feature about Nerbrasker where they showed a picture of a cab undergoing a safety test . It did not say what cab but if the Ertl Model John Deere 4020 is anything to go by , then I would say it was a Hiniker . As for the noise levels which does seem to be the most focused point here , I know they would not have been particularly quiet , but I am sure if people got there engineering heads on they could quieten them down . I know I would if I had one , rubber mounts , padding rund the front and so on . Of course are there and regulations in the USA now ? I know there safety standereds did once fall way below ours . Also here in the UK all cabs sold after about september 1976 had to have a minimum sound level of 90d . Manufacturer paniced , they had to extend the deadline . Why I don't know , for sound insulated cabs by then were nothing new . Case I belive around 1970 . Volvo and Valmet about the same year . Even Zetor back in 1968 got someway to it . The cab was a completely seperate maodule and did have [all be it probably not good quality] some sort of soft mounts . Not too sure what though for there other things beside rubber though not usually as good .
