The cabin houses the propulsion unit control console, the control panel for the hydralic hopper opening cylinders as well as communication and navigation equipment and basic crew facilities.

The control console for the engines provides separate functions for each propulsion unit, controlling:
– Diesel engine start, speed and emergency stop
– Propeller speed
– Propelor direction of rotation
– Steering angle (+65 to -65)
– Propeller lift
– Emergency stop
– Alarms units with buzzer, test and alarm release functions for: Low hydraulic oil level, Low boost pressure and High temperature/overheating
