JCB 527-58

Need to invest in a telehandler here to load grain lorries and other loader work. Have a couple of small houses to and low handler would be handy to clean them out. I know nothing about handlers tbh

looked at a 10 yr old 527-58, seems in good condition. Anything to look out for with these and are they big enough for loading grain lorries etc?

A separate question would a handler with a hitch tip a small 8 ton grain trailer, be handy for filling the drier have loader rather than a tractor hitched to it for loading and unloading drier

Guess that my question, would have thought 4 meters top of grain lorry then 1.8 meters to work with…… not sure though tbh

Alot will depend on the size of the bucket ,, years ago I could load tri axles with a 525-58 with ease , plenty of clearance

Dig a hole for lorries to back into so lower possibly?

I ran a 2m2 grain bucket on a 527-58. Cracking little loader.
