Only 71 inches wide and an overall height of 83 inches makes this machine perfectly suited to high productivity in confined areas or industrial sites with limited access.
A low cab option, reducing the height by 5 inches allows access to a greater range of buildings. In addition, different industrial tire options provide more flexibility in determinng the machine height.
A centrally mounted cab provides the operator with panoramic visibility. The low boom design means that there is nothing obscuring the view to the rear of the machine.
Permanent 4 wheel drive steer, together with the compact machine size, means an exceptionally tight turning circle with a radius of just 117 inches over the tires for great maneuverability and handling small yards. Perfect wheel tracking maximizes site damage and prolongs tire life.
Four equal sized wheels enhance tractive effort to give excellent loader performance. In addition, flotation over soft ground conditions and ground clearance are first class.
Permanent 4 wheel drive improves traction while also up-grading loader ability and rough terrain mobility.
Fuel and hydraulic tanks are very accessble for easy refueling in any location.
The mechanical quick-hitch is standard while an hydraulic option is available. A wide general-purpose shovel can also be specified. Specially designed for the 520, it gives increased roll back for improved material retention.
A full power braking system ensures maximum safety and machine stability. Direct acting brackes on each wheel are activated through JCB axles for maximum control The multi-disc brakes are immersed in oil for a long, maintenance free, working life.
Parking brake is easily activated by a single push button. It is oil immersed for long-life protection against wear while also giving added security when parking on gradients.
