It’s easy to get to the engine on a new JCB 417 wheel loader via the compact single-piece bonnet. Accessing the diesel and DEF tanks is similarly straightforward; the two filler points are separated to avoid accidental cross-contamination when refilling. You can check washer fluid level, engine oil and coolant from inside the cab, with all other routine checks and grease points located at ground level. This makes life both easier and safer. A cyclonic engine fan scavenge filter provides four times the filtering capacity of a standard air filter. It's a longer life system, with fewer components and a higher level of efficiency, protecting your wheeled loading shovel’s engine from unnecessary wear. To prove how good EcoMAX engines are, we’ve tested them for 110,000 hours in 70 different machines across the toughest applications and environments. There’s a large 116-litre fuel tank fitted, which ensures maximum working hours between refills. Most Tier 4 Final/Stage IV engines use a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) that can cost a lot of money and time when it needs replacing. The EcoMAX engine is DPF-free, reducing your servicing and running costs. The CommandPlus cab relays machine condition, giving real time alerts, safeguarding both your machine and its operator. The intuitive “help function” explains machine functions to new or unfamiliar operators without having to refer to the operators manual.
