There is described an agricultural machine, (e.g. a combine harvester), which has a cab (12) pivotable via a hinge coupling (24) relative to a main frame (14) of the machine, about an axis of rotation transverse to the direction of travel of the machine. The cab (12) is pivoted to allow an operator to view of the ground in front of the vehicle or a front coupling (16, Fig. 1) of the machine, to observe the attaching or detaching of a work implement to the front coupling (16, Fig. 1). The pivoting of the cab is controlled by an actuator (26), which may be a hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder may be provided with a hydraulic accumulator (28) which acts as a dampener absorbing large vibrations from the machine.
