JCB 520-40 from mid 2000's very compact 4 wheel steer machine, lift 2 ton but only 4metre lift height.
DO not buy a Manitou BT420 or 425, they are awful things! and parts supply isnt great on them.

Yeah but you never see them advertised for anything less than 25k
far too much for what they are and what they cost when new!

I'll take that as a buy new and replace at 3 years user of a 625Yeah but you never see them advertised for anything less than 25k
. Still think they are a great handler in their class.

They're good, i think it might be manitou most successful model IMO! The axles could do with being beefier but if your replacing every 3 years that wouldn't concern you hopefully.

Never had any axle issues, grease weekly and no problems. Fuel filter not up to it though, solved with an in-line filter added. Needs LED lights on the tier 4 ones as alternator isn't big enough for halogen.

What about a 2.4t lift so you can lift 4 600kg bags off fertiliser

Manitou 526. No electronics, Perkins engine. Should be able to find one for mid teens.

Just all the normal things. Steering pins, ujs etc. Worn headstock and boom pads.
If used in straw they can suck up straw off ground as you run over it and block rad.
The fan is a blower not a sucker so it blows hot air off engine through rad and out the back. I'm sure if it was a problem a sucker fan could be found that sucks nice cold air through the rad and be easier to clean and visually rad is blocked.
