Re: JCB Excavators Old & New
11400 hrs on first set of pumps.....that is bloody good going for a jcb!! Think the life expectancy on them is 7-9000 hrs! From what I used to be told by customers, the 4 cyclinder engine machines were as good as the old 6, but used a little less fuel......never as much as jcb used to say, but still...

Re: Jcb vibromax 90 strapping warning
