Still in its ‘concept stage' JCB's 515-40 telehandler is an ultra-compact machine with a 4 m lift height, a rated payload of 2 tonnes, and a full height payload of 1,3 tonnes.

A payload capacity of 0,75 tonnes is possible at a forward reach of 2,3 m, while the hydrostatic four-wheel transmission with rear wheel steering, means the 515-40 can also work as a forklift or a 0,5 m3 loader.
