JCB 530-70 farm special.

[Mike]

Can’t see the attraction of those machines, it’s like a tractor and loader without the advantages of a tractor. Surely a small pivot steer or telehandler would be better?

A bit ahead of a tractor and loader because it is an industrial machine and it would take a bulky tractor/loader combo to match it for lifting ability,

That doesn't look like a clutch version to me,look like double brake pedals on the left.:scratchhead:

I don't know, I don't know anything about these yokes I must admit.

why would you buy that over a teleporter ?

If the price was right.... might suit tight spaces better.

Anyone know what the 2009 jcb 531-70 were like? Presumably a jcb engine in it?

Good loader,bit flat if not turbo'd

This one is lively enough compared to what I’m used to. Would it be normal for the torque to be very dead for the first minute or so?
I had the bucket down to lift the axles and noticed after a few minutes the wheel was touching the ground, would that be normal. Don’t think it happens on the one at home.

One of my loadalls is fairly sluggish for the first 5 minutes the other isn't.

Suitable machines at the right money are scarce and so for the bit extra he decided that he was better off spending a bit extra and having a fresher machine that hopefully won't give any troubles for a long time.

What’s your opinion of that yoke peter? They are supposed to be a good yoke. Is it new?

Looks a fine loader. Hope it's lucky with him.

The one in nashmachs link looks very clean and would be very handy around a yard.

I'm looking at a very clean 2000 530 at the minute, it has a 70.6kw (95hp) engine, does anyone know if this is a turbo engine or not? Any easy way of remapping to bump up that power up if I wanted to?

At 95hp it’s already turbo’d,manual injection so no remapping.

They aren’t short on power,just were spoiled with 150hp plus handlers now.

Theres a pipe burst inside the boom and the boom needs to come out to get access the pipe. Any tips?

If it’s a rubber hose you don’t need to remove the boom,you undo the hose and tie a rope on the end while you remove it,pull the rope to thread the new pipe in.
