JCB has launched two &low boom' versions of its Loadall telehandlers offering increased visibility and productivity. The two HiViz models have 10% better all-round-visibility – particularly at the rear – achieved by lowering the boom pin pivot points by 9.5 inches. JCB said the models also have a more compact rear chassis – with a 3.5 inch reduction in overhang – and a 1 ft tighter turning radius, making the machines more maneuverable. The two HiViz models are the 535-125 (pictured) and 535–140.
