Overview

JCB's 85Z and 86C mini diggers are high performance productive mini excavators. Peak power and torque at low engine speeds makes for efficient cycles, and there's a wealth of innovative design features to get the most from every drop of fuel.

We've always believed that a fundamental part of high productivity is a comfy, ergonomic working environment. Consequently, you'll find that cabs and controls on an 85Z or 86C are great places to work, even for long stints.

A safe site is of paramount importance to any owner; likewise machinery that's easy and fast to service. Both the 85Z and 86C compact excavators will protect machinery, operators and bystanders alike, as well as providing excellent serviceability - minimising downtime.

Our tracked excavators are designed to give you more than just great performance and long service life. Machines like the 85Z and 86C will also provide ultimate value for money, both on and off your working sites.

SAFETY

Optional front screen guards provide peace of mind for operators, whilst boom and optional cab worklight guards protect vulnerable components in hazardous applications.

Stability on both machines is best-in-class thanks to a large track frame width and low centre of gravity.

To ensure that your hydraulics are only operated in a safe lockable position, JCB's unique 2GO system requires the operator to acknowledge they are ready to work.

The JCB 86c and 85z compact excavators have excellent front visibility courtesy of a 70/30 front screen split. What's more, there's a clear view of the front right track for easy, safe trench digging and manoeuvring. Overall we have 11% more visibility than before.

With a true zero tailswing design,the 85z mini digger reduces impact risks in tight workspaces. For safer lifting operations optional boom, dozer and dipper hose burst check valves are available.

SERVICEABILITY

JCB minis have the best SAE service rating on the market, partly because routine checks can be done easily without special tools and the gas-strutted 30Ëš tilting cab.

All dig end and dozer greasing intervals are best-in-class at 500 hours due to our graphite impregnated bronze bushes saving time and money.

Underneath the wide opening steel bonnet you can easily fill the fuel tank on a JCB mini from ground level, made easier with the external diesel indicator. The optional refueling pump features an auto stop function for reduced spillage and increased safety.

STRUCTURAL STRENGTH

Our fully robot welded boom and four-plate dipper design are made of high tensile strength steel, with internal baffle plates providing added structural strength for longlife durability.

COMFORT

The cab is incredibly spacious and its large door provides easy, safe access. Inside, you'll find 6% more space than before, plenty of storage, a phone tray, stowage nets and cup holder. A radio, 12V phone charger, powerful heater with window de-mister and a high performing air conditioning system with 9 vents completes the picture.

To ensure all-day operator comfort, there's fully adjustable suspension seating with an optional heated air suspension seat with independent adjustable positions. Switches are ergonomically laid out around a crystal clear informative colour LCD display with optional reversing camera.

The standard electro proportional high flow line has 10 selectable flow rates for total attachment compatibility and seamless operation. A switch in the cab provides easy operation of single or double-acting auxiliary flow.
