JCB North America's three new site dumper models feature maximum payload capacities ranging from 13,000 pounds to nearly 20,000 pounds. The new JCB site dumper range includes the 6T-1 with either a front- or swivel-tip bucket and 13,228-pound capacity, the 7T-1 Hi-Viz with front-tip and 15,432-pound capacity, and the 9T-1 with front-tip and 19,842-pound capacity.
Common features across the JCB site dumper range include:
• JCB EcoMAX 74 hp (55 kW) Tier 4 Final engine that requires no diesel particulate filter (DPF), no diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) and no diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC).
• Standard folding Roll-Over Protective Structures/Falling-Object Protective Structures (ROPS/FOPS) Level II frame. Optional ROPS/FOPS Level II cab with integrated protection.
• Front camera, reverse alarm as standard. Optional white noise alarm available.
• Seat belt switch logic to ensure the operator is correctly seated.
• JCB LiveLink telematics with geo-fencing and curfew alert functionality.
• Ground-level service access and 360-degree access to engine.
• Two-year/2,000-hour warranty.
The three JCB site dumper models are powered by the company’s 74 hp (55 kW) JCB EcoMAX diesel engine, which meets Tier 4 Final regulations with no aftertreatment. JCB axles and JCB powershuttle transmission ensure the power is delivered efficiently, for maximum productivity and performance.
JCB site dumpers also offer industry-leading stability, to dramatically decrease the risk of overturning. By increasing the wheelbase, widening the wheel track and lowering the bucket height, the payload center of gravity is reduced by 16 percent and maneuverability is maintained.
New levels of operator protection are assured by the JCB SiTESAFE cab which is rated for ROPS/FOPS Level II and designed to withstand the slewing impact from a 29,000 lb (13-tonne) excavator. A retractable Hi-Viz orange lap belt keeps the operator safe and comfortable, with a sequenced drive-inhibit system to ensure the lap belt is worn and the operator is properly seated before moving the machine. Additionally, an alarm alerts nearby workers of the dumper’s imminent movement and a speedometer ensures the operator is able to comply with site speed restrictions.
Available options include a green LED beacon, high visibility painted steps and grab handles, rear view mirrors, 360-degree cameras, object detection systems and LED working lights.
