This JCB 531.70 is a used telehandler — also commonly referred to as a telescopic handler — first registered in 2014 and currently located in Slovakia. Telehandlers are versatile lifting and material-handling machines used extensively across construction, agriculture, and industrial sites, combining the reach of a crane with the load-carrying capability of a forklift. JCB is a well-established British manufacturer with a long history of producing construction and agricultural equipment, including excavators, wheeled loaders, and telescopic handlers, serving contractors and farmers worldwide.
This machine is configured to the SUPER specification level and carries the AGRI motorisation designation. Power output is 81 kW, delivered via a diesel engine mounted laterally within the chassis. Drive is transmitted through an automatic hydrostatically assisted powershift transmission to all four wheels, providing continuously variable speed, responsive gear changes on the move, and meaningful fuel savings compared with conventional drivelines. The four-wheel-drive system is paired with four-wheel steering, giving the machine excellent manoeuvrability across difficult ground and in confined spaces. Good ground clearance further supports progress in demanding underfoot conditions.
Rated maximum lift capacity is 3,100 kg, maximum lift height is 7.0 m, and maximum forward reach is 3.7 m. The boom is fabricated as a U-section pressing with fully welded closure plates, with arm overlaps of up to 1.0 m for added rigidity. It is mounted low in the chassis, which keeps the centre of gravity low, improves forward visibility over the boom, and contributes to stability both when travelling and when handling loads. Hydraulic hoses are routed internally through the boom for protection. The one-piece fully welded chassis is designed to absorb the high stresses generated during continuous heavy material-handling cycles while keeping overall machine weight to a minimum.
Recorded hours stand at 7,200 mth. Safety provision includes load-holding valves on boom and carriage hydraulic functions, an in-cab load moment indicator that gives a progressive readout of forward stability, a neutral-start interlock that requires drive to be disconnected before the engine will start, and automatic drive disengagement when the handbrake is applied. Audible and visual alerts keep the operator informed of engine and transmission status. The side-mounted bonnet and folding rear lights are positioned to reduce the risk of damage during site work. VAT deduction is applicable to this listing, and the asking price is $52,000.
