JCB 330 SKID STEER LOADER

Large platform JCB 330 (1497kg / 3300lb rated operating capacity) vertical lift skid steer loaders incorporate our unique single boom and side entry design. They’re also the biggest skid steers we make. Designed for comfort, safety, economy, productivity and durability in the USA (home of skid steer loaders), the 330’s 55kW (74hp) JCB EcoMax engine is durable and hugely efficient.

The 330 has on average 60% better visibility and a 33% larger cab than rival manufacturers’, and there are a whole host of other benefits too. Like ergonomic controls, an extremely tough powerful boom and a low cost of ownership.

All of which helps to make our large platform skid steer loaders 21% more productive in performance tests against the competition*.

* – Based on faster speed of getting in/out and faster startup times.

Operator Comfort

Keeping your operators fresh, focused and productive is paramount, which is why we’ve designed our 330 model of skid steer loaders with a 33% larger cab than the nearest competitive machine. Our standard seat has mechanical suspension and there’s also a 12V charger, easily readable control panels and an electronic hand throttle.

Servo-assisted controls make handling smooth and intuitive; all in all, we like to think that JCB 330 skid steers are a comfortable favourite with operators.

Productivity

There are no more productive skid steer loaders than the JCB 330. The figures speak for themselves: it has a 16% lower cost of ownership than the top competitor, a better SAE service rating, an annual fuel savings of over 3975 litres* and a heavy-duty crowd ram that’s nearly 3 times the size of the nearest major competition.

There’s a standard mechanical quickhitch and auxiliary couplers on the PowerBoom too. In short, it’s as productive as skid steers get.

* – based on 50 weeks per year and 35 hours per week.

Fast entry and exit speeds

• Side entry makes JCB skid steer loaders 17% quicker in applications requiring multiple entries and exits, such as some agricultural tasks.

Serviceability

We’ve designed our range of skid steer loaders to be serviced easily, ensuring minimum downtime. Firstly, we mount our engines longitudinally for easy access to the drive belt and associated components. There are also 30% fewer grease points than average vertical lift twin arm skid steers.

We’ve installed front and rear chassis clean out plates, with a fluid drain point in the rear one, as well as durable O-ring face seals on all hydraulic fittings. There’s excellent service access through the rear service door and gas strut-assisted tilting radiator.

So it’s no wonder our large platform skid steer loaders are on average 24% more serviceable than competitors’ machines, based on SAE Service Audit Scores. And there’s more too.

Even more serviceability

  • Easy-to-service hydraulically-driven variable speed fan.
  • Cab can be easily tilted by one person for hose access.
  • Daily check points are grouped and easily accessible.
  • Chassis has an integrated fuel tank and drain point.

Efficiencies

JCB skid steer loaders are more fuel efficient than competitive machines. Equipped with the JCB Dieselmax engine the 4.4 litre turbocharged unit provides incredible power at low engine revs, thus reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions whilst supplying enough torque for even the toughest of jobs. By using the JCB Dieselmax engine and the hydraulically driven thermostatically controlled fan JCB’s skid steer loaders provide 16% better fuel economy than the competition*.

MACHINE OPTIONS

Electrical options

  • Roadlight kit with brakelights – includes larger headlights, indicators, brake lights, mirrors, position lights, and flashers / hazard lights.
  • Grid heater for canopy builds – for use in cold climates (standard in some regions).
  • Engine block heater – uses an electrical heater to heat the engine easing starting in cold climate conditions.
  • Worklights with 2 rear lights for non-A/C machines – adds an additional rear work light to the one standard.

Loader options

  • Smooth Ride System (SRS) – cushions the loader arm, reducing spillage and providing a smoother ride.
  • Parallel lift (raise only) – helps keep loads level throughout the lift cycle; ideal for handling palletised loads with forks.

Hydraulic options

  • 2-speed for wheeled and tracked machines – increases speed when roading for quicker travel times.
  • Auxiliary hydraulic coupler placement – left hand side – allows you to use third party attachments on JCBs without changing hose lengths.
  • Hydraulics are available in both standard flow and optional high flow for increased attachment versatility.
  • Biodegradable oils – environmentally friendly alternative.
  • Standard auxiliary circuit low flow return – for use with attachments requiring a low flow case drain.
  • Hydraulic quickhitch – for easy changeover between attachments, ideal for applications that require multiple attachment changeovers.

Further machine options

  • Wide core radiator – for increased cooling ability in applications with high amounts of airborne contaminates.
  • Hardide pivot pins – for severe duty applications.
  • Spark arrestor exhaust – reduces the risk of sparks being emitted from the exhaust; ideal for forestry and waste/recycling applications.
  • Tool kit (basic): grease gun, wheel brace and tommy bar.
  • Tool kit (full): grease gun, wheel brace, tommy bar, tool roll and pressure gauge.
  • Twine cutter – cuts string, twine, and wire around the axle shaft and flange to prevent damage to axle seals.
