A little more perspective
Caterpillar lists the 797F’s empty front-canopy height as 7,709 millimeters. This reference selects the dump body fully lowered. It does not substitute the 6,526-millimeter cab-protection height or the much taller measurement with the body raised.
The canopy above the cab defines this top marker. Caterpillar separately lists 15,701 millimeters with the body raised, more than twice the selected canopy height. That change comes from rotating the dump body, so a picture of the raised truck cannot be calibrated to the body-down value.
