JCB 533- 105

Yep,have one here.very very reliable and good machine for us.loads corn well although as you mention it only just h has enough crowd and dump angle.very steady the road but always gets the job done.keep the boom shimm ed up well s o it doesn't wreck the hoses in the boom.ours had been 're done before we bought it and we've done 3000 hrs with no trouble with them.very very good and very veryhandy.biggest problem is other people wanting to use it and being brave enough to tell them no!

Yes,ours is 52 reg.Perkins non turbo.yes feels very sluggish but better once you get the oil warm.no prizes for speed but always gets the job done.ours is powershif t and have had the four speed powershif t in many different machines ,backhoe, and other teleporters by jc b and it's never been problematic.at that age it's a good well built jc b with not a lot to give trouble.service the front axle well with the correct oil so you don't get brake trouble if your using it hard as you tend to ride with foot on brake pedal although you shouldnt!powershif t is nice and quiet too ,no gearstick rattle.if your used to a farm special it will feel slow but will do the required and is very handy for reaching things.can hea p sugar beet to a ridiculous height,maybe eight metres or so deep once you get used to it and push it up the side of the pile .brilliant for building maintenance and construction.

Ours are home made buckets on a Volvo quick hitch ,purpose made to suit the angles .maybe std buckets might not crowd and dump as well.be worth checking.
