JCB’s new range of seven skid-steer loaders – four wheeled and three tracked – are part of a line that will eventually encompass 18 models. All seven machines are vertical lift, and include the 260, 280, 300 and 330 wheeled units and 260T, 300T, and 320T track loaders, all with rated operating capacities of at least 2,600 pounds. The machines feature a tilting cab with increased service access, multi-function joysticks, a hydraulic quick hitch, an isolated cab sealed and pressurized with reduced noise levels, heated air-suspension seats with adjustable armrests, o-ring face seals for hydraulic connections, and a range of more than 30 types of JCB attachments. The units feature JCB’s Powerboom design with a single arm. The machines do not require a torque tube across the back of the machine, thus reducing rear view obstruction. Laminated glass replaces the mesh screen on the cabs.
