There is no machine that works harder on the construction site - with unique safety features, the 540-170 Hi-Viz is designed to protect both the operator and bystanders.

• Our patented load control system and pendulum frames enable safer and more stable load placement, while hose rupture check valves protect the driver and bystanders in the event of a hose rupture.
• To protect colleagues on the construction site, a new reversing camera and impulse radar options are now available for selected models.
• The low boom profile and pivot point offer an unsurpassed rear view of obstacles and traffic on the construction site.
• A full set of side and rearview mirrors improves all-around visibility and compliance with safety regulations.

With the lowest 1000-hour maintenance costs in the industry, along with daily maintenance, this results in an industry-leading SAE rating.

• JCB's proprietary telematics and fleet management system LiveLink enables maximum uptime for your fleet of machines.
• In addition to tracking machine hours, LiveLink enables monitoring of fuel consumption as well as service and maintenance alerts.
• With LiveLink you can also monitor your DPF regeneration.
• LiveLink also provides performance reports on idle time, location, machine condition, diagnostic error codes, engine utilization by power range, safety warnings, and fuel consumption.

A clever 4-section boom design combines a hydraulic cylinder and chains to extend or retract all sections proportionally in one fast, smooth movement.

• A JCB Construction telescopic handler is extremely maneuverable; the compact wheelbase, large steering angles and 3 steering modes save valuable time on the construction site.
• The new Stage V DieselMAX engine generates its power and torque at low engine speeds, making it very responsive to operate.
• JCB's latest Stage V compliant 55 kW (75 hp) engine offers a combined DPF/DOC aftertreatment package that achieves Stage V emission levels without DEF injection, thus minimizing the impact on maintenance and operation of the machine.

The 540-170 was designed to offer you maximum uptime. Our machines are as robust as possible and use high-quality components and innovative manufacturing processes.

• The rigorous testing program for the new Construction telescopic handler series included prolonged, high stress on the chassis, boom and other key components.
• We have installed a robust, inverted U-shaped boom press with fully welded closure plates.
• For added strength, we have reduced the number of connections and stress points on the integrated cantilever nose and the one-piece end plate.
• The boom of a construction telescopic handler is mounted low in the one-piece, fully welded chassis, which allows for a very rigid structure and maximum over-the-shoulder visibility.
