Abstract
The snow-weasel weighing 8.5t with a Diesel engine which was designed to accomodate 3 persons in -2°C to -40°C conditions was studied from ergonomic viewpoints. The check-list method was applied to check the microclimate, noise and vibration, illumination, clothes, water supply and sewage, seats, displays and controls. Some problems were revealed by this method as to temperature regulation, defroster, noise while driving, vibration, absence of lavatory or water supply, bed space and kitchen table. The improvement of window space, seat design, layout of controls, countermeasures for emergency and temperature regulation was recommended.
