Sound Performance Levels
Specification	854
Sound Performance	• The machine sound power level was measured according to ISO 6395:2008 The measurement was conducted at 70 percent of the maximum engine cooling fan speed. • The operator sound pressure level was measured according to ISO 6396:2008 The measurement was conducted at 70 percent of the maximum engine cooling fan speed. • Hearing protection may be needed when the machine is operated with a cab that is not properly maintained or when the doors or windows are open for extended periods or in a noisy environment

Air Conditioning System
Specification	854
Air Conditioning	The air conditioning system on this machine contains the fluorinated greenhouse gas refrigerant R134a (Global Warming Potential = 1430). See the label or instruction manual for identification of the gas. If equipped with 1234yf (Global Warming Potential = 0.501), the system contains 2.1 kg of refrigerant, which has a CO2 equivalent of 0.001 metric tonnes (2.2 lb). If equipped with 134a (Global Warming Potential = 1430), the system contains 1.8 kg (4.6 lb) of refrigerant, which has a CO2 equivalent of 3.003 metric tonnes (3.31 tons)

Cab
Specification	854
ROPS/FOPS	ISO 3471:2008 and ISO 3449:2005 Level II Standards
