The JCB Teleskid Range - 2TS vs 3TS

Discover the JCB Teleskid range, the world’s first and only skid steer loader and compact track loader with a telescoping boom, allowing it to lift higher, reach further and dig deeper than any skid steer on the market.

Currently waiting for my quote on a 2TS. Hopefully I’ll have that next in my fleet. This machine will open up so many more
Options for my land scaping company

I ran one of these for 3 years and they are great machines and easy to operate.

JCB and Volvo in my opinion have the best skid and track steers as both have side doors with the JCB adding the tele-boom which with a 4-in-1 bucket allows for dumping in any truck/trailer.
Both companies make great machines that really shine in the winter when things get slick or year round when things get muddy as you simply get out the side.

Really the biggest game changer in the market

in case someone happens to get blocked inside cause of an exterior object blocking the door or it flips on that side the front window should have an emergency pop-out option to exit the machine.

the 3ts cabin could be bigger, really the whole machine could be bigger. at it's size and weight a 1500 can't move it around. we may as well have a 250 hp with a good bit more leg, foot and hip room. the ability to lift 6500 retracted and 2800 lbs extended. plus the strength in the arm to run a mulcher at least half way extended. plus a pressurized cabin. and a smooth ride. it should feel like sitting in an EasyBoy chair in front of a TV. that would be worth 70K. optional 3D blade and bucket control. ok maybe called it 4ts-250. i think you would also have to call it sold out most of the time.

I have an important question:
When you extend or retract the arm of the 3TS, if the attachment has a hydraulic system, does extending or retracting the arm affect the stability of the hydraulic system on the attachment? For example, if you are using a bale grab, could it cause the grab to loosen?

Thank you!

Plus one hydro cylinder on the boom and bucket wouldn't have much curl on the bucket and if the one cylinder is bad can't use it were as two less stress on just one but cool

I've been in the market for a skid steerfor about 6 months now and I'm getting pretty serious about buying. the problem is that most of these companies have terrible customer service. I walked around a Bobcat Dealership for a half hour and nobody ever came out to talk to me. and you can't really find any to sit in or look at in person because nobody has any inventory. You'd figure when dropping a hundred grand on a machine you be able to find a company that wants to sell you sell something. Frankly it kind of makes me wonder about the industry as a whole

[midengineZ]

Needs better high flow hydraulic pump,
The pump in the demo we tested felt super weak and it was the high flow option atsupposedly 33 gpm
JCB engine has the biggest engine in the industry at 4.4L ecomax feels anemic compared to our ASV RT-135 Cummins 3.8 QSB

[jackjmaheriii]

Does anyone know if you can get a backhoe attachment for this thing???

[royandrews]

Please make a bigger one with more horse power.

[bradkaberline]

There has been enough people killed that while in a skid loader you should have a ground man so you don't have to get out when the bucket is up dangerous

[bradkaberline]

And it's not equally disturbing weight seems like that a lot of weight on one side of the machine
