JZ140

Unlike all other T4F tracked excavators, the JCB JS131 meets regulations without any DPF, SCR or AdBlue to worry about.

JCB’s In-Cab Monitor checks engine oil levels, coolant, and system errors on start-up. The filters (engine oil, hydraulic oil and fuel), are centrally located for fast, easy servicing.

By using graphite impregnated bronze bushes on the JS131 excavator, we've increased boom and dipper greasing intervals to 1,000 hours for normal applications.

Our innovative recalibration option allows EcoMAX to run on lower grade fuels. This means the JS131 can be resold across different territories, which improves residuals.

We’ve eliminated the need for a visibowl style pre-cleaner with our new optional scavenger filtration system. This uses suction from the cooling fan to remove heavier particles from the induction system.

Because they’re mounted side by side, the engine radiator, hydraulic cooler and intercooler can be serviced individually yet cleaned easily.

The JS131 excavator’s reinforced boom and dipper is made of high tensile strength steel, with single piece wrapper plates and internal baffle plates for long life durability.

JCB JS131s boast the best components in the industry, including Berco running gear, Kawasaki pumps, Kayaba valve blocks and JCB EcoMAX engines.

Our EcoMAX Stage IV/T4F engine has been tested for 110,000 hours in 70 different machines across the toughest applications and environments to ensure durability throughout our tracked excavator range.

The high-strength undercarriage uses a fully welded X frame construction for long-term durability even in the most demanding applications.

A closed box section revolving frame increases strength and reduces stress. It’s also highly resistant to impact damage. The JS131’s high-strength rigid upper frame provides maximum durability and support.

The JS131 excavator’s bonnet opens front-to-rear for easy and safe engine service access.

For extra peace of mind, JCB cabs are available with an integral Rollover Protection Structure (ROPS). It’s also easy to fit JCB’s Falling Object Guard Structure (FOGS), thanks to standard fitment mounting brackets.

JCB JS131s have a large glass area and low bonnet line for superb visibility, while our 2GO system fully isolates hydraulic functions to avoid unintended machine movements.

There’s no need to climb onto the JS131 tracked excavator to check oil levels; all routine servicing can be done from ground level.

Steps and platforms have anti-slip punched steel plates for optimum grip, even in wet or icy conditions. Bolt-on plates have recessed bolts to reduce trip hazards.

JCB’s Safety Level Lock fully isolates hydraulic functions to avoid unintended movements. Our innovative 2GO feature means a JCB JS131 can only be started in a safe locked position via two separate inputs.

JCB JS131 exacavators have excellent front visibility, with a 70/30 front screen split and a clear view of the front right track for easy, safe trench digging and manoeuvring.

Because it doesn't require any bulky after-treatment like DPF, the new compact EcoMAX T4F engine can be housed under an innovative low-level bonnet, providing excellent rearward visibility.

For tremendous speed and control, a JCB JS131 has a balanced slew and electronic/hydraulic controlled slew braking. Auxiliary options can also be specified with proportional control options for even more smoothness and precision.

The 7" colour multi-function display is easy to read in all light conditions, provides instant operational information, and has a customisable home screen.

JCB JS131 cabs use 6 viscous rubber mounts to minimise noise and vibration. This creates a quieter working environment (70dB(A) inside and 98dB(A) outside), meaning you can use the machine at any location, any time.

Light, intuitive and smooth controls improve comfort and productivity. The JS131 tracked excavator's joystick-mounted power boost button gives extra hydraulic power fast.

A JCB JZ140 excavator’s reinforced boom and dipper is made of high tensile strength steel, with internal baffle plates for long life durability. In addition, we fit heavy-duty wear strips at the dipper end for increased durability.

Our advanced manufacturing and assembly processes produce high precision premium quality assembled components. We then add the best components in the industry, including a JCB EcoMAX engine, Berco running gear, Kawasaki pumps and Kayaba main control valves.

Our engine is tried and proven; we’ve built 200,000 DIESELMAX engines since 2004. To ensure similar longevity; the JZ140’s EcoMAX T4i/Stage IIIB engine has been tested for 110,000 hours in 70 machines across the toughest applications and environments worldwide.

The high-strength undercarriage of a JCB JZ140 tracked excavator uses a fully welded X-frame construction for long-term durability even in the most demanding applications.

A closed box section revolving frame increases strength and reduces stress. It’s also highly resistant to impact damage to cope with the kind of harsh life expected of any excavator.

The JCB JZ140 tracked excavator’s high-strength rigid upper frame provides maximum durability and support, while its stiff durable door design offers you added strength and rigidity.

JCB dozer blades are now even stronger and more durable than ever because we’ve improved our manufacturing process.

JCB’s all-new easy-to-use quickhitch system makes attachment changing quicker and easier for you, and is purpose-designed for the JS tracked excavator range.

A standard dozer blade increases versatility when you’re grading. Choose the optional rubber street pads and you can use your JCB JZ140 excavator on sensitive ground like tarmac without causing damage.

Simultaneous tracking and excavating is smooth and fast with an intuitive multifunction operation. Proportional controls offer you precise command over attachments and in tasks where you need to perform fine adjustments.

A JCB JZ140 is a solid, stable work platform for fast cycle times, while a massive 92kN bucket tearout – with correspondingly fast cycle times - makes this excavator extremely productive in all applications.

Because there’s no DPF on a JCB EcoMAX engine, you benefit from lower maintenance costs. JCB’s innovative hydraulic regeneration system means oil is recycled across the cylinders for faster cycle times and reduced fuel consumption.

There’s a full list of auxiliary pipework options including hammer, auxiliary, and low flow. For ultra versatility, these auxiliary options are available with proportional controls.
