The in-cab service check is one feature
on the latest mid-range wheeled loaders
from JCB CEA, the 411HT and the 417HT
which have many of the features from
the farming flagship 435S Agri and JCB’s
other high productivity wheeled loaders.
“The new loaders are powered by the
same JCB EcoMAX engine as before – a
4.4 litre generating 81kW (109hp) in the
411HT and 93kW (125hp) in the 417HT,”
Greg said.
“These agile loading machines have a
commanding central driving position that
makes it easy to position and manoeuvre
them in the most restricted of working
environments.”
The 411HT and 417HT are designed
and equipped primarily for hard surface
applications.
“The more spacious new CommandPlus
cab brings new levels of information,
control and comfort to the JCB 411HT
and 417HT, with excellent visibility and
improved sound suppression,” Greg said.
“Operators also get a second information
Improved comfort and control for Agri Loaders
Operators will be able to perform routine service checks without leaving the cab of JCB’s
new wheeled loaders, according to Greg Sealey, JCB Construction Equipment Australia
(CEA) National Product Manager for Wheel Loaders.
screen with integrated remote camera
display and CommandPlus Control, which
enables in-cab adjustment of auxiliary
oil flow, the optional boom suspension
system and timing intervals for the
reversing fan if fitted.
“Being able to perform daily routine
service checks from within the cab not
only saves time but encourages operators
to regularly make these important
checks,” Greg said.
Both models are fitted with an efficient
selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
system. Together with a ‘clean’
combustion process, this achieves Euro

requirements without a diesel
oxidation catalyst (DOC) nor a costly
diesel particulate filter (DPF) and the
regeneration process often needed to
periodically clear such filters.
The 8.7 tonne 411HT also offers operators
the JCB High Torque lift arms giving
3.36m of load-over clearance with the
quick-hitch fitted and a full-turn tipping
load of over five tonnes.
Three loader arm choices are available
with the 417HT, giving up to 4.2m
clearance for bale stacking or loading
an intake hopper in a feed production or
fertiliser blending plant.
Optional hydraulic suspension is available
to cushion the arms as the loader travels
over a rough surface, improving operator
ride comfort and minimising the risk of
spillages or a load becoming dislodged.

The Takeuchi TB2150 excavator has a
solid and massive steel casting of the
heavy duty swivel mechanism that
provides high precision control of the
boom. This can swing in either direction,
while keeping the cabin stationary to
enable the operator to maintain focus on
the job to position the stick and bucket.
According to Satch Santilli – Sales
Director at distributor, Semco Equipment
Sales: “For the operator, the hand rail is
in the perfect position to ensure safety
when accessing the machine’s upper
deck, although the machine is designed
for ground-level servicing.
“The all-new cabin is superbly appointed
and highly practical, designed to ensure
clear and unobstructed visibility of the
work zone without the operator having
to alter the viewing position. At the back,

a smooth rounded profile counterweight
further improves visibility,” Satch said.
“There’s also an entirely new console
screen display which incorporates a
camera and integrated warning which
shows flow and pressure adjustment.
Hydraulic flow may be selected to suit
whichever attachment is being operated
at the time and the settings are stored in
memory for rapid access when needed.
“Power is provided by a gutsy, yet super-
quiet Deutz TCD 3.6 L4 engine which is
rated at Stage IV/ T4 Final, with an output
of 85kW. Digging depth is 5,445mm with
a maximum reach of 8,760mm.”
Other benefits of the 16 tonne operating
weight machine include three sets of
auxiliary service piping. Two of these
