The all-new JCB 5CX WasteMaster backhoe is quite simply the most powerful and productive JCB backhoe loader ever made. Expanding on JCB’s world-leading backhoe range, the 5CX has all the engine power, torque, tractive effort and pushing power you could need for the most arduous waste rehandling applications, as well as unbeatable loading, rehandling, roading and hill climbing performance.

Versatile

A large 1.4m³ shovel and massive 6590kgf shovel breakout makes rehandling faster. All-wheel-steer offers great on-site manoeuvrability. There’s a 6.51m dig depth – the deepest on any JCB backhoe loader. The 5CX backhoe can be used in a variety of waste applications using many different attachments.

Durable

The chassis on the 5CX backhoe is specially designed and heavy-duty. The backhoe’s front axle mount is reinforced to handle huge lifting forces. High ground clearance makes for superb performance on uneven ground. Heavy-duty arms, reinforced around the pins and shovel, handle massive reach. A cushioned ram allows smooth operation and provides excellent load retention. JCB uses precision design techniques like finite element analysis to make their backhoes stronger. 25,000kg static load axles are designed to tolerate the very largest loads. Inboard oil immersed brakes are powerful, efficient and low maintenance. JCB’s DIESELMAX engine and transmission are tried and trusted over hundreds of thousands of hours.

Operating Environment

The 87kW (118hp) DIESELMAX engine is the most powerful ever fitted to a JCB backhoe loader. Limited Slip Differentials increase traction and make power delivery more efficient. Low ratio 1st and 2nd gears provide superb pushing power and the ability to effortlessly push and tow transfer waste bins around site. Six gears provide smooth changes and good fuel efficiency. There’s an automatic change from 4^th to 6th gears. A kickdown switch gives extra power when loading. JCB’s unique Smoothride suspension system improves load retention and operator comfort in the 5CX backhoe. The interior is inspired by the automotive industry for familiar ergonomics. Stopping at nothing Power brakes allow efficient, safe stopping power for low pedal effort. Stopping is always predictable and controlled. JCB’s patented TorqueLock feature reduces fuel consumption by up to 25% when roading. Efficiency gains from TorqueLock means up to 10% shorter travel times.
