Try this to make your garage doors easier to deal with: on your first pass, stay 24” away from the doors, on your second pass, then get close to the door, this will reduce the trailing edge of snow left by the doors.

awesome! thanks
I bought this same machine (2ts7t) in August. I used it a week and told my dealer I wanted the (3ts8t). The reason was was the high pitched whine in the hydraulics. The 2 is the new model and I think JCB needs to do some better sound proofing on it. I love my 3ts. It weighs about 2500 lbs more than the 2ts and is so much more machine. I liked the 2 other than the noise but I'm so much happier in the 3. The controls are a little jumpy but you get use to them. It has 3 modes so on mode 1 you can eliminate a lot of the touchy stuff. I'm guessing he had it on mode 3 when he was plowing which makes it really sensitive on the controls. They are expensive but to me it's worth it. Note: I'm in my 60s and have ran or owned just about every skidsteer out there.
"That colour tho!" I commented on one of your videos before about that colour. We bought a Teleskid this spring and the colour is absolutely awesome. Ours is 3ts-8t model which is the bigger one. I love the visibility and there is a lot more room between the cab and the tracks. The controls were jumpy at first like you said, but we run ours in the 3rd mode and after you run it for a while it's pretty smooth.
That color tho. Full-watch. Enjoyed watching the extendable skid steer in action. 👍🏽🙂
That colour though. I like how much it stands out too
Thanks for the review! It was awesome 👌
Sounds ok. Great video. Thanks Taylor hope u had a great thanks giving buddy.
The color really makes it stand out . Awesome machine and Yes JCB has really made an Awesome machine . Great Video .
That colour tho. JCB. Does a good job piling up the snow, great vlog.
Those teleskids are sweet. Not the most powerful machines but really versatile and great to run
That colour tho! I like it, and the skid steer. Looking to purchase one in the future, thanks for sharing. 👍
That color tho/ Have yourself a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year👍
The Teleskid was nice but I was impressed with you clearing 250 doors with a blower in 15 minutes. All the best!
That colour though !! I agree with you great testaments from the trial 👍👍🏴
Demo the 3TS-8T. Also have the dealer dial in the controls to your liking. From there you have 3 drive setting and 3 loader settings you can quick change on the dash. Huge difference in control and responsiveness. They leave the factory with just a generic setting.
Yes the colour is great. Good luck after 1-2 years. The colour fades and the paint blushes. I have the new compact 3CX with HLA 8-13.
I always wore a hard hat and seat belt when I plowed with a Bobcat. If you hit a hidden obstruction you might go head first into the windshield. One of our operators did just that and he said wearing hard hats was stupid. Learned the hard way. I also wore hearing protection.
THAT COLOR THO 😜, MISSING the snow ❄️ if South Carolina gets 2 inches of snow it's a blizzard LoL miss New England snow fond memories. God bless stay safe.
We run a JCB 3TS 8T for our mobile rock crusher for clean up. Decent rig, controls are really touchy though. Hydraulics are really fast and can be dangerous if you aren't careful. But, one you get used to it. A very capable machine
My 82 year old Dad replaced his 257 Cat with a JCB. It’s a nice machine and has some good features. For him it means he can safely use it by himself without the danger of climbing over the attachment to enter the cab. Visibility is better than any skid steer I have ever ran, and I have been in them since 1986!

I just bought a 2002 257, ASV undercarriage, with 725 hours on it. Were there any issues with it that stood out to you over the course of it's life?
Any company that puts in a battery in a hard to access area should put in some easy access jump start terminals. It doesn't matter if it is a car or equipment if it has a hard to access battery it should have an easy access set of terminals as it would not be hard to setup.
Im impressed with that on first impressions . I live 5 minuets from the original factory in Rocester UK. Looks like you have another sub, love these kind of channels 😁 I though you were Canadian by the way you say oot, I havent seen many Canadian channels like this, I only come across American upto now , Hi from the UK .
That colour tho ! Looks bad ass always wanted to try one out.
Bought an 8ts-3t having never operated a ctl before, to clear land/ trees in my yard and to clear the occasional Alaskan snowstorm. Easy access zirks are great, quick attach works in sub-zero & caked with ice. 3 speed settings range from twitchy to Micheal j fox. Wouldn't have noticed the noise mentioned, i expected it to be louder. Having gimpy leg the side door is amazing. Only thing i can think of now that I'd like would be a small slide window on the right side for communicating.

Window on right side wouldn't be permitted because arm is on right side. Safety issue
Thats an awesome design with the side door and teleboom👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍
That color tho!! That is a sweet color for JCB machines
That color tho! 😂 good video dude, currently looking at a JCB for my construction company. Thanks for the honest review.
That color tho... I've wanted to try one for a while seems like a handy machine. Jcb seems to have really stepped up in the last few years. Like how accessible they make everything for maintenance
I only use the foot pedal as a throttle, that will help a ton in controlling it at low speeds.

I couldn't agree more. If you run iso controls you should always use the foot throttle. The only time I've personally ever used the throttle dial is when running a brush mower or trencher.
Oo new video, new skid steer = fun times
Yes the color is great
That color tho!!!! Tyler the snow man ☃☃☃☃
That color tho. Full-watch. I want one!
I think teleskid would be perfect for u guys especially with septic systems
that colour tho..... love it
You can definitely tell it’s very touchy just by watching your hands and the machine
Nice super video! It was super cool! You have a super machine! Super great job! Just super
That color though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yea!!!!!!
That color thou my friend works at a JCB dealer and we used a skid like that but it wasn't telescopic I found the drive jerky but I found it better to use joystick and gas pedal in unison and I was able to control it smoother
That Color tho! the JCB teleskid works awesome for stacking snow which is a major part of snow plowing! Looking forward to more videos on it!

We rental one for one of our wall rocks jobs and we had the same problem with the controls how late response timing and touchy lift to right But the power to size is awesome
Oh damn that side door is going to convert me to JCB now
There are 3 control sensitivity settings for the loader and tracks separately, and all 6 settings can be even more fine-tuned on board without a computer or technician. JCB skid steer controls are some of the most user-friendly and widely adjustable controls on the market.

Yeah and I feel like it might be partially due to the fact that the machine is idled up pretty high
Awesome vid man
The JCB is very cool ASV just re did there windows too for visibility the 257 is still my favorite skid on the market and best looking
Personally. I would say that skid loaders like that. Would makes things so much easier for farmers especially. Let alone construction people. Nice machine
That color tho! Nice vid. Show us more telescoping maneuvers
you should really invest in a ASV skidsteer, it would be perfect for your needs!!! Also best track system on any skidsteer
If you ever run the JCB again use the info button on the right side by gauges and make sure T mode and L mode are on 1 not 2 or 3 makes it less jumpier and a smoother operation.

@@KenWhiteConstruction its a decent machine but like you said is very touchy can get annoying. But i tried👍🏼
Every construction company I've ever talked to said you need a cheaper tire machine and a newer track machine...both are excellent.
Have you looked into getting one of the tow behind blowers that golf courses use to blow out the doors? You can get them with Like a 30 horse Briggs engine they’re pretty powerful. They even make ones that go on an excavator, they use them for blowing off cars at the auctions. Buffalo turbine makes them.
I think that track problem is because of the size of the skid steer. The bigger version (3ts-8t) has a bigger space between the tracks and the cab
So I’m demoing one of these exact model machines right now. I wanted to mention that they do a lifetime warranty on the loader boom from the factory. I plowed snow with it the other night and it seems pretty good...however...the steering controls are terrible!! I run all sorts of equipment all the time snd I can usually adjust fairly quickly to different controls, but this thing I couldn’t make it stop trying to pop my head of my neck. They also told me it was adjustable, but if it’s adjustable and all of the customers are bitching about it why not change from the factory? I felt like the loader controls were slow, snd the track system was over sensitive. I also noticed that it sat lower to the ground and it had ice balls crushing up between the track and bottom of the cab. This is very minor but it was a bit annoying that every time I got in snd out I was getting snow and mud on my pants from rubbing on the track and then it gets rubbed on the front of the seat from the back of my pants. Still trying to figure out if I want one of these, a John Deere or a cat.
I work for a big snow removal company seasonally. I'm usually on a 925 Cat but sometimes I'm in one of the big boys or a skid steer. I don't get to have a piece like this though we have snow pushers. On the loaders it's not a big deal but on the skid steers.... you know.
Your the best. Great Regards from Germany
"That colour tho" great video I think the JCB would be a very versatile machine. You guys are getting lots of snow there and here in Nova Scotia nothing but rain.
We rarely get dry snow in NORTH CAROLINA ours is usually wet snow or ICE.
JCB went with that bright yellow colour scheme so that there on site equipment can be seen and that other site operators can see them weather they are working or parked up somewhere on the jib site,plus they can also be seen in bad weather.
I wonder how practical this could be for loading bulk salt, you got any salt in that colour though?
In Russia, we clean snow with shovels. It's great that you have a technique that makes the job easier.
Your dealer should have shown you how to adjust the sensitivity on the teleskid. One of the best machines on the market
JCB's are cool. You need an Arctic Sectional pusher.Tracks are for dirt. Tires are better for snow. Just me. Nice video. I run a 321 Case . Again, nice video.
Before we bought our cat we rented a Volvo for a season and I really miss the side door. We use a 10 ft snow bucket to plow i think without the telescope we can stack snow higher, which I was kinda excited about that idea but I don't know I think I would like to see you reach out with a bucket full to be able to stack the snow in a location you could normally never get to.
At 7:04 I thought you were going through that building lol. I'm sure you knew that was there.
Great vid and love the buckets opion.. Question what kind and hat is that does it have a led light on it?
I would like see the JCB with a LD 10.5' Arctic Sectional on it!! I bet it would push a mountain!
Get the Stile back pack blower used to blow leaves an larger stuff. One great tool in a landscaper Arsenal to keep things clean. Your going to happier with it than a weed wacker extension tool.
That Color Thou!!👍🏼
i want one of your light beanies so cool
That skidsteer is cute. It’s like a tractor, only smaller.
THAT COLOUR THO!!!
One thing to mention, with arm up you can get out of cab. I work for a dealer and yes controls are adjustable. I actually knocked over pallet of oil pails in new skidsteer set way too touchy.

I will never enjoy a skid loader unless it has hand foot pilot controls. Controls aren't a highlight of this jcb, but I could see the delay from your joystick movement to machine movement in the video, and that in itself would drive me away from the machine like all the other brands that have transitioned to electronic controls. I ran a s770 with hand and foot controls as my main unit. I tried many other skid loaders, and I kept coming back to bobcats hand foot setup. Having those twin sticks let's you feel the machine to a whole new level, and it's something I need to be able to runa skid loader anymore. Great review on the Machine. Also, that colour tho!
I love my jcb skid steer

2022 like night and day difference. New joysticks from precise control. Also joysticks connected to seat for comfort
How much can it lift Taylor? Its an interesting concept for sure, but makes me wonder if one machine can really be a small telehandler and loader in one?
That Colour tho!!
That color though like it myself
Only time I will tell a KZread guy something to buy. Get the biggest Shindaiwa blower(we have three) or a stihl br800 2nd choice(have 6 of those). You can use them for so much! Blowing dirt/rock off the pavement. Really move leaves. W.e. comes in handy all the time. A 80cc 2 stroke back pack will do work!!!!
That color though...Now i have to repaint my Huskvarna 330P.
I'm curious about something I'm a storage owner as well and I have the same issue you have I have long drive isles that get snow in between the buildings. My question is would it be more efficient and easier to take your snow blower and just blow the snow off of the drive aisle now I realize you can't blow the snow 100 ft but you can blow it more than one time so you can just keep going till you blow all the snow from one end to the other. Have you tried this before and was it effective or do you find it better to use a snow plow and just keep pushing it out
Invest in a echo 8010 or 9010 back pack blower. I use only a backpack blower with a snow shovel attachment. Not required but really does help. Can also remove ice from pavement or concrete. I like no broken pins, an i like being able to go anywhere. An its not a one season toy. When your exhaust is ran down the tube of your blower. Its going to help the breaking up of snow an ice. KZread has lots of demo videos. This is your best tool for concrete under one year old. Also your not called the berm king.
That colour though!
box plow would be a game changer
The controls are electric over hydraulic so the are adjustable.
You can change the control sensitivity on the screen. I usually run the travel on the lowest and the boom on the highest. Electric controls are not as smooth as hydraulic pilot controls of a Cat.

Cat uses EH controls just like JCB, Deere, and Bobcat. If you want true hydraulic pilot controls, you need a Kubota or Gehl.

Cat skids are electric to sticks. Been for years And next gen cat excavators are the first to market electric to sticks. That's why they can offer stick steer
I can also see that security wise, if that teleskid flips on his left side, the driver is stuck inside the cabin.
That Colour Tho!!
That colour though! Neat machine, definitely for certain uses, would it be for you?
Stihl power broom work really well maybe give it a shot for in front of the doors
That was a lot of super super! 😂
