As with most modern machines, the telehandler 360 has a range of features that improve safety and make operation easy. These include separate load monitoring and machine screens for simple, clear information. The control system is easy to use and JCB’s ‘hydraulics to go’ feature makes the telehandler quick and simple to set up.

This involves a series of theory questions and a practical assessment on a telehandler 360.
