Introduction
General
Your machine has been designed and built to give maximum performance, economy and ease of use under
a wide variety of operating conditions. Prior to delivery, your machine was inspected both at the factory and
by your dealer to make sure that it reaches you in optimum condition. To maintain this condition and trouble
free operation it is important that the routine services and maintenance, as specified in this manual, are done
at the recommended specified intervals and it is recommended that this is done by an approved JCB dealer
using genuine JCB parts. Servicing/repairs carried out by unauthorised personnel or the use of non-genuine
inferior quality parts could limit machine warranty.
After completing any routine servicing, maintenance or repairs you must complete the functional checks
according to the maintenance schedule.
This section of the manual gives full details of the service requirements necessary to maintain your JCB
machine at peak efficiency.
It can be seen from the service schedules on the following pages that many essential service checks must only
be done by a JCB trained specialist competent person. JCB dealer service engineers have been trained by
JCB to do such specialist tasks, and are equipped with the necessary special tools and test equipment to do
such tasks, thoroughly, safely, accurately and efficiently.
JCB regularly updates its dealers to advise them of any machine developments, changes in specifications and
procedures. Therefore only a JCB dealer is fully able which makes them best placed to maintain and service
your machine.
A service record sheet or book is provided at the back of this publication which will enable you to plan your
service requirements and keep a service history record. It must be dated, signed and stamped by your dealer
each time your machine is serviced.

resale value will be greatly enhanced.
When the machine is removed from service, local regulations for machine decommissioning and disposal will
vary. Contact your nearest JCB dealer for further information.
