JCB Launches New Loadall Work Platform Series

In early 2017, JCB introduced a new series of operating platforms that can be mounted on Loadall, a telescopic loading forklift. These models are used on hot-selling four-bar telescopic handlers. The new series of operating platform maximum operating height of up to 20.3 meters, the maximum operating range of up to 11.63 meters.

JCB Launches New Loadall Work Platform Series

Here are the main features:

JCB's own design and development of a full range of operating platforms can be used on the 14- to 20-meter telehandler loadall models. According to the Loadall model, users can select from three types of work platforms: load capacity 365kg, 500kg and 1000kg; 2.4m wide fixed type is the smallest platform model, and the other two more models platform width can be from 2.2m Expand to 4.4 meters to achieve 180 degree rotation.

Depending on the Loadall model and the joystick control system, new work platforms can be installed on the 540-140, 540-170, 540-180 and 540-200 models. The driver can remotely control the work platform and have greater work flexibility and avoid interference with the harness. Before the whole machine enters the “operation platform mode”, the system will realize the interlocking of the parking brake and the equipment legs. The transponder key realizes the conversion of the entire machine control to the remote control of the working platform. This safety setting avoids the use of the operating platform. The device in the move. When the user does not need a work platform, with JCB quick-change device, the user can complete the dismantling of the work platform in a few seconds, use the transponder key to switch to the complete machine control mode, and then you can use the functions of the telescopic handler. This greatly increases the usage and versatility of the equipment.

All JCB operating platform models conform to the EU EN280 standard (the European standard for the design and manufacture of aerial work platforms). Rear axle locks are installed on the Loadall frame of the installation platform to ensure greater job stability. The work platform with slewing function uses JCB's innovative design of the chain drive mechanism to ensure stepless, smooth, and stable rotation during the 180-degree rotation operation.

Loadall also has an emergency recovery system that complies with the EN280 standard to ensure that the boom remains safely lowered to the ground in the event of an engine failure or dead fuel. In addition, Loadall is also equipped with audible alarms. When the boom angle is less than 20 degrees, it will automatically alert and warn the operator that the work platform is being lowered to the ground. The interlock pins of the Q-fit quick-change device ensure that the platform is securely locked. In addition, the platform also installs a load monitoring system integrated with the whole machine adaptive load control system, which can prevent overloading of the platform and ensure the safety of operations.
