Testing Out My JCB 208s After Rebuild | Low on Power? | SeidelRanch

Stuff about this tractor….
The 600kg loader capacity JCB 208s 1CX is the smallest model in our backhoe loader range, bringing backhoe performance and capability to previously inaccessible areas. It can turn on its own axis in order to work in cramped environments and it’s fitted with a universal skid steer quickhitch allowing for a full range of skid steer attachments to be fitted easily. Full servo-controlled hydrostatic transmission gives zero to maximum speed, both in forward and reverse, at full power.
Highly maneuverable skid steer design, Gearless servo-controlled hydrostatic transmission, Comfortable cab environment, Choice of manual or servo excavator controls, Versatile universal skid steer quickhitch, Extradig option gives superior backhoe performance, The JCB 208s 1CX backhoe loader is extremely nimble, not just because of its compact size; it’s also blessed with cutting edge controls to make maneuvering easy.
Hydraulic servos reduce lever efforts to a minimum and seat-mounted twin ergonomic joystick controls are positioned for easy use. There’s an auxiliary hand tools circuit, while joystick-mounted auxiliary control push buttons make attachment operation easy.
To turn on its own axis, the 208s 1CX has a skid steer transmission system controlled through servo hand controls for ease and precision.
The JCB 1CX 208s is an exceptionally safe backhoe loader: a ROPS/FOPS canopy or fully glazed cab with soundproofing, working lights, seatbelt and JCB impact protection kit are available to suit the different customers around the world.
