Perfection at the Push of a Button »The operator can easily access all the important operating functions of the Everest fromthe right hand armrest. The ergonomic shapeof the joystick designed by PRINOTH guarantees effortless control and reduces fatigue
when operating the tiller and blade. Withineasy reach, the operator is able to input data
via the keypad with his right hand. The ergonomic layout of the switches assures easeof operation of lights, window defroster, andother functions.

EASY ENTRY Function »One of the unique features of the Everest is
the design of the steering wheel column. Thesteering column features the EASY ENTRY function: after entry into the cab, the steeringcolumn automatically returns to the preferred
position of the operator. A creature comfort
the operator will certainly appreciate. For theindividual operator needs, the steering column
can be adjusted with respect to height, lengthand degree of tilt. The shape of the steering
wheel has been ergonomically developed to fit
in the operator’s hand. Three different hand positions were designed into the steering wheel.
The lightly grained surface ensures a firm grip
while at the same time providing a comfortablefeeling for hours of fatigue free driving.

Quantity and Quality »Grooming perfection in the shortest possible time: the Everest gets it done. The large
drive motors create new standards in performance. In combination with the unbeatable
PRINOTH POWER TILLER, the perfect piste canbe achieved at maximum grooming speed. Thequantity and quality of the operation is dueto the efficiencies of the PRINOTH vehicle
management system, which assist the operator in realizing unparalleled performance whendriving and grooming. The connectivity of these
performance enhancers is achieved by meansof the CAN bus connections.

Performance on Any Terrain »Demanding slope angles and large amounts ofsnow are easy work for the Everest. The orientation of the push frame mounting points andthe dynamic shape of the blade guarantee thebest results when creating the perfect piste.
The fact that the Everest has excellent performance even under full load results from thelarge displacement hydrostatic drive pumps
that provide high performance even when making the tightest radius turn. The low weight ofthe Everest creates low ground pressure. Combine that with an optimum center of gravity
and you get an adaptable and maneuverable
grooming vehicle.

ANYWHEREeven on the steepest piste, the tracks areequipped with distinctive ice spikes and lateralstabilizers. Whether in soft snow, new snow orrock-hard ice – its climbing capabilities andlateral stability are guaranteed to provide thebest performance.
