JCB 215 Skid Steer

JCB’s skid steers use efficient engines that need no DEF, no DPF and no engine aftertreatment. The cooling system pulls cool, clean air from above and sends hot air out of the sides and rear, away from the operator.

• 55kW JCB Diesel by Kohler engine
• Industry-standard quick hitch, for simple coupling to JCB attachments and those from other manufacturers
• Optional Smoothride System (SRS), which lets the boom and load move independently of the chassis for better load retention and faster loading cycles

A wide-opening side door lets operators get in and out safely, without climbing over large, slippery attachments or under an unsupported boom.

• Wide-opening side door
• Powerboom loader arm, giving 60% better visibility than conventional twin-arm machines
• No rear torque tubes, for significantly improved rear visibility
• Clear view of the quick hitch and bucket cutting edge, which simplifies changing attachments and working near obstacles

On small-platform machines, JCB cabs are 46% larger than the competition’s, so operators can work in comfort and stay productive.

• MyChoice control software, which tailors joystick sensitivity to the way you work
• ISO-pattern controls as standard, with H-pattern available as an option
• Radio with AUX port, compatible with phones and other devices
• Touch screen display, for MyChoice settings, reversing fan intervals and the job timer

JCB’s skid steers are easy to service and need minimal maintenance, while a strong, rigid design copes with demanding work and conditions.

• Ground-level daily checks, with filters reached through a large rear service door
• Tilting cab, which one person can open in just a few minutes
• Fully welded chassis and solid undercarriage
• Powerboom with tapered pivot pins and 20% more steel than twin-arm skid steers, with hoses routed internally for protection
• Largest quick hitch pivot pins in the industry, for extra support and greater breakout force
