Equipment Overview
The JCB 4CX is a backhoe loader built for general construction, utility, and civil earthmoving work, part of JCB’s 3CX and 4CX backhoe loader range alongside the 3CX, 3CX Plus, 3CX Pro, and 5CX Pro. It delivers 72 kW of gross engine power and an 8,585 kg operating weight with the extended dipper fitted as standard in Australia, suited to grading, trenching, and material handling on Australian construction and utility sites.
Power comes from a JCB Dieselmax 4.8-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged and intercooled engine meeting Stage V emission standards, delivering 450 N·m of torque. A 6-speed Autoshift transmission with standard TorqueLock drives all four wheels, with Auto 2WD switching to reduce tyre wear and fuel use when four-wheel drive isn’t needed. All-wheel steer and a 1.2 m³ six-in-one loader shovel add manoeuvrability and loading capacity on site.
