456 ZX - Wheeled Loaders

Equipped with Cummins power and Z bar geometry, the robust JCB 456B ZX is designed for a lifetime of powerful performance. Designed to the highest specification, this rugged wheeled loader is perfect for the toughest conditions while the operator environment is as comfortable and as user-friendly as you’ll find.

LONG-LIFE DURABILITY

• Quality design and heavy-duty construction result in a rugged machine built for a long productive life.
  
• Multi-plate, oil immersed disc brakes are mounted in wheel hubs to eliminate damage from abrasive materials and to minimise maintenance requirement.
  
• Load sensing hydraulics reduce wear and minimise fuel consumption by delivering oil only on demand.
  
• Steering cylinders are mounted high on the mainframe for greater protection against the elements.
  
• Exhaust system is made from stainless steel for a longer life.

HIGH PRODUCTIVITY

• The high performance Cummins 6CT8.3C engine is built for longevity and reliability. It generates 161kW (216hp) and produces excellent torque rise. Together with the fully automatic transmission, it generates class-leading performance while giving excellent fuel efficiency.
  
• Z bar geometry means high breakout forces for easy bucket filling and immense digging ability.
  Impressive loadover height and reach allow easy truck and hopper loading.
  
• When selected, the optional Automatic Carry Control System reduces machine bounce. Activated at speeds over 7kph, it cushions the bucket lift rams using accumulators to minimise the pitching effect on rough ground. As well as increasing productive capacity, it also improves operator comfort during load and carry cycles.

OPERATOR COMFORT

• Operator environment provides a high level of comfort and all-round visibility.
  
• Ergonomically designed cab includes a fully adjustable seat and steering column for greater comfort and minimal fatigue.
  
• Air conditioning is standard maintaining a dust-free and comfortable environment. The cab is pressurised with positive filtration to keep the air clean.
  
• Low sound pressure level in the cab minimises operator fatigue.
  
• Fully automatic transmission ensures real ease of operation for more productive machine utilisation.

SERVICEABILITY

• Electronic Monitoring System (EMS) warns the operator of any potential system failure. It includes a data logging and downloading capacity.
  
• Pin and bush design only require greasing every 100 hours.
  
• All servicing points and major components are easy to access. Swing out transmission and air conditioning coolers make radiator cleaning easy.
