The unique JCB Plexus filter cleans the hydraulic oil down to 1.5 microns providing ultimate protection for the hydraulic system and allows for extended service intervals - 5,000 hour hydraulic oil change and 1,000 hours on the filter.
An electric fuel pump, fitted as standard, speeds refueling to minimize downtime.
The heavy duty "X" frame type undercarriage is integrally welded for strength and durability, with excellent ground clearance. Underbelly guarding provides added protection for arduous work sites.
Automatic pre-heat glow plugs mean first-time starting whatever the climate.
Operator Comfort

The comfortable, six-way adjustable seat allows the operator to find the best position in relation to the controls.
Large glass areas mean excellent visibility especially low down to the operator's left or right and to the rear of the machine over the low hood line and rounded counterweight.
