Description: |
Claim:
The general aim of the invention is to make it possible for the operator of one of the huge machine tools encountered in current practice, to be always in position for effective manipulation of the intricate controls he must deal with, to have a good view of the progress of the work, and yet not to be fatigued with constant climbing, twisting and turning in crawling over the machine. |
