Here are some pics of how the front of cab opens up to get the hood to open up as usual.

This is the coarse threaded bolt/screw that holds the front of cab closed, one on each side of cab at the front, just above the floor boards.

The pivot bolt near top of the cab. You can also see the one for right side in the picture with the fan in it. About a foot down from roof.

Front pivoted up in order to gain access to engine as usual (I only lifted it part way, but will pivot up beyond the roof to allow the hood to open with not issues.

Was thinking originally I should bolt the cab shut....after all - who checks the oil in engines anymore?? I perhaps should switch to long life synthetic oil??
