Equipment Overview
The JCB 945 is a diesel rough terrain forklift built for high-mobility work on rugged sites, part of JCB’s RTFL range alongside the 930 and 940. It has a rated capacity of 4,536 kg and mast options from 4.57 m to 6.7 m, suited to construction, mining and industrial-yard operations on uneven ground.
Power comes from JCB’s 4.4-litre EcoMAX four-cylinder diesel engine producing 55 kW (74 hp) and 400 N·m of torque at just 1,200 rpm, meeting Tier 4 Final emissions requirements without exhaust after-treatment. JCB’s Synchro Shuttle transmission combines a 4-speed synchromesh gearbox with a torque converter and electric reversing shuttle for fast directional changes, and every 4WD model can switch to 2WD at the flick of a switch.
