rm, it is very light weight (less that 5kg)
and two piece so that we can remove the
m easily for the maintenance.

 The carpet with sound-insulation effect i

s used.

 The exposed wires and hoses in the curr

ent 660 cab were put at behind of the sea
t together.

 The floor cover has a drain hole that is c

overed at rubber grommet for cleaning o

n the cabin floor.

ed air pilot solenoid valve for anti-freezin
g purpose

 Increasing engine speed automatically d

uring rod changing. Thus, faster rod cha
nge can be expected due to faster "Fast
Feed Speed”

 Expect to speed up for increased rod ch

anger speed as follows;
Times for Fast Feed Up when Adding Ro
d & Removing Rod.
Before With this device

ir pressure one (1) minute after engine st
art.

 Start-run valve automatically decreases

air pressure during tramming (When Tra
m/Drill control switch is selected to ”Tra
mming Mode”).

unit is heavy duty high quality.

 The both ends of hose are equipped with

two wear-resistant flanges made with
polyethylene rosin.
Inside of the hose is also coated by
polyethylene rosin.
It can reduce friction inside of the hose.
