[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 40650, member: 782"] I agree with Tazza , any modifacation or damge that would deem it structurally unsafe to a ROPS/FLOPS cab could cause it to be frowned upon by OSHA and if something were to happen you can bet it would become an issue in the insueing lawsuits --------------------- the other end of the spectrum is here in the USA we have a problem with cabs on excavators on what I call Gray Market machines , the standards over seas is much lower than here and machines come in with not to USA ROPS/FLOPS specs. cabs and seen some make it onto larger job sites where there are saftey man who do nothing but screw-te-nyze , I have seen them be removed from the site and not allowed to work , and have seen a few accidents where operators were hurt when the machine flipped with a not approved cab [/QUOTE]
