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 Compact Track Loaders offer unrivaled operator comfort, to enable maximum productivity. JCB cabs on small-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 Compact Track Loaders are equipped with efficient engines that require no DEF, no DPF, and no engine aftertreatment. All JCB Compact Track Loaders feature an industry standard quick hitch for simple coupling to all JCB attachments and attachments from other manufacturers. 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.

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 Compact Track Loaders feature tilting cabs, which can be operated by one person and opened in just a few minutes, to provide access for deeper maintenance. For quick cleaning with a power washer, JCB Compact Track Loaders provide easy access to the engine bay and flat floors with no dirt-trapping footwells.

The iconic JCB single-arm Powerboom™ boasts tapered pivot pins and 20 percent more steel than the twin-arms on conventional Compact Track 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. The quick hitch is constructed from high-tensile steel and features high-strength welds for longer life. For extra support and greater breakout force JCB Compact Track Loaders have the largest quick hitch pivot pins in the industry.
