JCB 516-40 Agri Specifications

Basic Information

The JCB 516-40 Agri Loadall is a compact agricultural telescopic handler specifically developed to meet the demands of livestock farming, mixed agriculture, horticulture, and confined farmyard operations. Based on the proven 516-40 platform, the Agri variant incorporates agricultural-specific features such as enhanced cooling protection, debris guards, agricultural tires, and attachment compatibility tailored for bale handling, muck handling, and general farm duties. The machine is designed to operate efficiently in low buildings, tight yards, and restricted-access areas where larger telehandlers cannot work effectively.

With a maximum rated payload of 1,600 kg (3,527 lb), a maximum lift height of 4.0 m (13 ft 1 in), and a forward reach approaching 2.7 m (8 ft 10 in), the 516-40 Agri delivers excellent material handling capability while maintaining a low overall height of under 2.0 m.

The innovative offset single-spine chassis allows the cab to sit low without compromising operator space, visibility, or comfort. Permanent four-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, and a hydrostatic transmission provide smooth, precise control when working around livestock, inside sheds, or on uneven farm surfaces.

Powered by a reliable Deutz industrial diesel engine and equipped with a robust hydraulic system and high-tensile steel boom, the 516-40 Agri is engineered for durability, ease of service, and long operational life. Designed to meet ISO and ANSI/ITSDF safety standards, it emphasizes stability, predictable handling, and low operating costs, making it an ideal compact Loadall for agricultural environments.
