JCB's new mini excavator offers improved features, top performance and a focus on safety.

Tough as nails

The new Generation Stage V 25Z-1 JCB mini-excavator with zero tailswing configuration has been designed with durability and reliability in mind, as well as the flow pipework is available to suit an array of efficiency offered by being easy to tow.

The 25Z-1 is manoeuvrable, allowing operators to work and load in confined spaces with ease.

And even better, it carries the premium quality, reliability and performance expected from JCB.

Tough to beat

The 2.5t 25Z-1 mini excavator benefits from performance enhancements across the hydraulics, tracking, attachments and a new powerplant.

The Stage V Kohler 18.4 kW engine reduces fuel consumption by five per cent, maximising excavation and lifting duties with low noise, low vibration and low fuel use. Auto-kickdown track motors adapt to changes in terrain, enhancing productivity, while high- and lowflow pipework is available to suit an array of hydraulic attachments, as are optional bolt-on counterweights to improve stability and lift performance.

Safety a high priority
