Claim:
A work machine vehicle comprising: an operator protective structure; a seat positioned in the operator protective structure; first and second adjustable armrest assemblies mounted to a structure of the seat such that the first and second armrest assemblies can be adjusted in fore and aft directions relative to a seatback of the seat, but such that the first and second adjustable armrest assemblies are restricted from movement in directions other than the fore and aft directions; vehicle controls integrated with the first and second adjustable armrest assemblies such that adjustment of the first and second adjustable armrest assemblies adjusts positions of the vehicle controls relative to an operator sitting on the seat, and such that after adjustment the vehicle controls and the operator sitting on the seat are maintained at constant relative positions with respect to each other even as the work machine vehicle moves over rough terrain and the seat moves up and down; and a nested seatbar pivotably mounted to a structure of the work machine vehicle, the nested seatbar being moveable to a down position in which the nested seatbar is located substantially between the first and second adjustable armrests.
