JCB introduces the first four models in a new range of high-boom lift and place Loadall telescopic handlers. The models feature larger cabs, side-mounted Tier-3-compliant engines, an easy-to-use, plus-pattern servo-hydraulic control lever, and rear-axle stabilization on all but the smallest models. The Loadall 506-36, which replaces the 506C, provides a lift capacity of 6,000 pounds and a working height of 36 feet. A second machine, the 507-42, replaces the 506CHL and provides a 7,000-pound maximum lift capacity and a working lift height of 42 feet. A third machine, the 509-42, also has a 42-foot lift height, but can handle loads up to 9,000 pounds. It replaces the 508C model. Topping the range is a new machine with a 10,000-pound lift capacity and a working height of 56 feet.
