Trying out the JCB 220X LC Excavator

I got to take a quick spin on JCB'S new X-series flagship excavator at their demo site near the Work HQ in Uttoxeter, U.K

I operated the The first model of the JS220’s were the best, izuzu 6 cylinder engine, brilliant Hydraulic response smooth control, superb balance and traction with a great cab layout 👍 3 years and she never missed a beat, brilliant machine 👍

I had a new js220lc in 2003 and it was the best machine of that type I ever used, perfect 6cyl isuzu engine not common rail, Kawasaki pumps, kyaba valve block, very smooth and fast with perfect chassis balance good on fuel very reliable no problems at all. from then on they have gone down. Machines of today inc Volvo, hitachi, cat etc are not as good which is why I dont operate these any more.
