With a wide-opening side door for safe entry and exit, operators no longer need to climb over large, slippery and awkward attachments, or under an unsupported boom. The iconic JCB Powerboom™ loader arm enables 60 percent better visibility around the machine than conventional twin-arm machines. And with no rear torque tube, as required for conventional machines, operators also benefit from significantly improved rear visibility.

JCB cabs on large-platform machines are 46 percent larger than the competition. On large-platform machines, JCB cabs are 33 percent larger than the competition. JCB’s myCHOICE control software allows operators to tailor the sensitivity of joystick movement to match the way they work. ISO (single joystick transmission operation) is a standard feature; H-pattern controls are an available option, to suit operator preferences.

All JCB Skid Steer Loaders are equipped with efficient engines that require no DEF, no DPF, and no engine aftertreatment. Unlike the cooling systems on conventional Skid Steers, JCB machines pull cool, clean air from above and force hot air out through the sides and rear, away from the operator. Optional parallel lift makes it easier to position loads with forks or attachments on all JCB models. JCB’s Smoothride System (SRS) option allows the boom and load to move independently from the chassis, for improved load retention, operator comfort, and faster loading cycles.

JCB Skid Steer Loaders are easy to service and require minimal maintenance, for improved efficiency and productivity, and lower operating costs. All daily checks are performed at ground level, and pre-filters, oil filters and air filters are easy to access via a large rear service door. O-ring face seal hydraulic fittings reduce leaks and maintenance downtime. JCB Skid Steers feature tilting cabs, which can be operated by one person and opened in just a few minutes, to provide access for deeper maintenance.

The iconic JCB single-arm Powerboom™ boasts tapered pivot pins and 20 percent more steel than the twin-arms on conventional Skid Steer Loaders. This results in greater rigidity, less wear, and improved retention of material in the bucket. The Powerboom™ also provides safe internal routing for hydraulic hoses, for protection from damage.
