JCB 540-200 Telescopic Handlers

UNRIVALLED COST OF OWNERSHIP

JCB’s innovative Clean Burn technology helps EcoMAX to meet T4F/Stage IV regulations using a sealed-for-life SCR system instead of exhaust after-treatments like DPFs. Benefits include the fact that you don’t have to worry about costly time-consuming DPF regeneration and replacement.  

An LED screen on the JCB 540-200 Loadall’s dash provides useful information for efficient running, like fuel remaining, fuel used since last fill, current average fuel consumption, DEF level and any current warnings.  

By producing high levels of power and torque even at engine speeds as low as 1300rpm, EcoMAX can provide fuel-efficient matching of transmission and hydraulics.  

JCB telescopic handlers enjoy proven demand supported by legendary productivity and build quality, ensuring high residuals the world over. EcoMAX can be adapted to run on lower-grade fuels, making Construction Loadalls easily resalable across different territories, boosting residuals further still.

UNRIVALLED PRODUCTIVITY

Class-leading JCB hydraulics produce the fastest cycle times, ensuring the most efficient lifting, extending and pushing. A variable speed cooling fan automatically reacts to ambient temperature, adjusting fan speed for maximum economy and minimum noise.  

The JCB 540-200 Construction Loadall telehandler boasts excellent manoeuvrability and fast travel times across site, courtesy of a compact wheelbase and large steering lock angles.  

With 4WD as standard, you get plenty of traction and performance even in soft, muddy areas. 2WD can be selected to minimise tyre wear and fuel use.  

The JCB EcoMAX T4F engine delivers 109hp (81kW) of power and 512Nm of torque at just 1300 rpm (likewise the 93kW/550Nm option), offering you optimum response, as well as improved cycle times and tractive effort.  

JCB’s optional Smoothride System (SRS) improves load retention and increases operator comfort (and therefore productivity) when travelling at speed on the road or on uneven fields. You can now also engage SRS manually with the boom in any position.  

Multi-function single lever servo control provides fast and accurate load placement. Controlling your 540-200 Loadall’s direction is easy too, with just a flick of a switch.  

The 81kW (109hp) and 93kW (125hp) EcoMAX engine options are fitted with a variable speed cooling fan that automatically reacts to ambient temperature, adjusting fan speed for maximum economy and minimum noise. An optional reversing fan can clear dust and debris from your telescopic handler’s cooling system to maintain performance.

UNRIVALLED REACH AND HEIGHT

The JCB 520-200 Loadall’s regenerative hydraulics harness gravitational forces, diverting oil back to the rams while the arm is lowering. This exclusive JCB feature helps to reduce cycle times by up to 20% and fuel consumption by 4.4%.  

A precise high-speed double boom chain extension system helps this unique telescopic handler to maximise job site efficiency. Electro servo hydraulics and a high-flow 110 l/min hydraulic pump also ensure fast cycle times.  

With its remarkable forward reach capabilities (200kg at 15.9m, 1500kg at 8.9m), a JCB 540-200 offers productive support throughout any build, reaching across typical building foundations with ease.  

Our innovative 5-piece boom design combines a hydraulic ram and chains to extend or retract all the sections proportionally in one fast, smooth movement. What’s more, it’s all operated from just one lever.  

With its sway chassis, you can keep the 540-200 level on uneven ground. The stabiliser legs also provide a wide spread to maximise operator confidence and load capacity throughout the lift envelope.  

Changing attachments is easy thanks to the combination of JCB quickhitch and an auxiliary hydraulics venting valve operated by a button in the cab.

UNRIVALLED RUNNING TIME

Fluid filters (engine oil, hydraulic oil and fuel) are centrally located for fast, easy servicing. The air filter is easily accessible too, and its double-element design simplifies cleaning; yet another reason why JCB Construction Loadalls have best-in-class SAE serviceability ratings.  

All daily checks and greasing on the JCB 540-200 can be performed at ground level. It’s also easy to fill the diesel and AdBlue tanks from ground level, with both tanks equipped with pre-filters in the filler necks to guard against dirt and contaminants.  

You can access the battery easily on this telescopic handler (and without specialist tools) via a lockable cover that’s opened with the ignition key.  

A dry lubricant system means the JCB 540-200’s wear pads are extremely durable, with service intervals of 500 hours.  

This telehandler doesn’t use DPF technology, so there’s no loss of productivity during the regeneration process, nor the extra expense of replacing a DPF.  

To prove how good our EcoMAX engines are, we’ve tested them for 110,000 hours in 70 different machines across the toughest applications and environments.

UNRIVALLED SAFETY AND SECURITY

A low boom profile and low boom pivot make for excellent rearward visibility on the JCB 540-200 Loadall, likewise the full set of side and rear-view mirrors. Because EcoMAX doesn’t use a DPF, the bonnet line is lower, improving both visibility and manoeuvrability.  

In many territories, our Loadall security system is Thatcham-approved. The package comprises a JCB LiveLink telematic GPS vehicle tracker, an immobiliser and a Cesar Datatag.  

The cab is Roll Over Protection System (ROPS) and Falling Objects Protection System (FOPS) certified, so operators are safe at all times. Sway frames enable an operator to make their telehandler absolutely level before commencing lifting.  

To protect bystanders, a reverse alarm is standard-fit on the JCB 540-200, and an operator presence switch disables drive when your operator isn’t seated, preventing accidental operation.  

Our factory-fit immobilisers can result in reduced insurance premiums. You can choose whether your immobiliser is operated by a key or a 4-digit code keypad that automatically arms itself after a set period of time following engine shutdown.  

Cesar is a simple and effective method of machine identification and registration that’s operated by police across the UK and Ireland. JCB fully supports this initiative and we fit it as standard to all UK telescopic handlers.  

Hose burst check valves (HBCVs) are fitted as standard to the rams, preventing a collapse in the event of hose failure.

LiveLink tracking provides valuable real-time machine location data. Geofencing alerts help to ensure your machine is only used in specified areas.
