Lift Higher, Reach Further, Dig Deeper

JCB introduces the Teleskid to landscaping professionals as the world’s only skid steer and compact track loader with a telescopic boom. According to the company, the Teleskid offers:

• The  flexibility to do the work of four machines—a telescopic handler, masted forklift, compact loader and a skid steer—all in one easy-to-service machine.
• A forward reach of 8 feet and a lift height of over 13 feet, in addition to the ability to dig below grade to a depth of 3 feet.
• A single-arm, telescopic boom to perform tasks not possible with conventional skid steers, such as loading high-sided trucks without a ramp, reaching across a standard 8-foot-wide trailer, mowing down slopes, and digging or clearing ditches.
• Availability in 3TS-8W wheeled and 3TS-8T track models with rated operating capacities of 3,208 and 3,695 pounds, respectively.
• The combination of vertical lift—for greater lift capacity and lift height—and radial lift—for improved excavating and grading—in a single machine.
• A bucket-positioning leveling system that activates when the boom is raised or lowered, making it easier to keep materials in the bucket.
• A fully enclosed cab that is 33 percent larger than the industry average.
• JCB myCHOICE software to permit control responsiveness and joystick sensitivity to be tailored to suit operator preferences.
• A 74-HP JCB Ecomax engine to provide high torque at a low RPM and ensure compliance with Tier 4 Final emissions standards.
