Peter Haddock reports on the all new Backhoe loader range, in this exclusive interview, with Worldwide specialist Julian Carder at the recent JCB press launch, supported by Ritchie Bros. the used equipment specialists.
There is so much to love about this new range and key takeaways are:
- Standardisation throughout the range
- Big fuel savings with Stage V engines
- Comfort in the cab with Bluetooth radio and toggle controlled screen (you can even access help videos from it!)
- Great lighting and visibility
- Three models Eco, Plus and Pro
- Auto stop, smooth ride and idle functions throughout
- A Pro version with a big engine, cool new radial tyres and a 6 speed transmission with torque lock system
And much much more, as Julian explains in this in-depth video. Big thanks to our Construction Collective team of Mark Anthony Nick Drew and Freddie Anthony for collaborating on this video.
And of course Nigel Chell and the team for inviting me to my first ever JCB press conference, hopefully not the last.
Enjoy the video
