Jcb 535-95

[Massey mad]

Hello we are looking at buying a non agri super 535 95 and just wondered if anyone had one for farm use and what they think to it, is the 100hp engine man enough and are the hydraulics much slower. Thanks

Now Then..
It depends what you want to do with it??
Don't expect it to buckrake or go great distance at any speed on the road. The boom controls may not be set for Ag use either. You may have up/down at boom in/out on one lever and tip/rollback on the other...

controls are easy fixed, on the old linkage ones, just need to swap the controls rods round. not sure about newer ones if electric though.

We have two that sit on our outlying farms and don’t do an awful lot, they are slower due to only one hydraulic function working at a time but you get used to it! It all depends what you want to use the machine for and what you expect from it!

Thanks for the replies, it is one with an electric joystick like this one in the picture, and has been used as an ag machine previously so will the controls work as a normal handler should do?

And all we really want the forklift to do is handle bales, stacking etc and handling muck pushing the muck hill up and things like that.

You probably want a an Ag spec one then- for that sort of work , you need capable fast hydraulics.

both our industrial spec machines are perfectly capable of the above, just don’t be in a hurry! Due to the reach you don’t need a lot of pushing power for a muck heap! It will do your job just at a gentle pace.
