Nice upgrade Brian, 420 is a weapon. Over here in the UK we have a customer on a dairy farm who clocks almost 2000hrs a year on his loadall. Hope you enjoy the new one 👍
Metric is, 6.0 metre reach, 3.8 tonne max lift hence the 538-60 The agri controls are also different to a construction spec but the main difference is power and road speed Q-fit is jcb specific
Hi. How are you getting on with the 420? Is it noisy? We've just had a new one delivered (England). Very loud, sounds like a hydraulic pump/valve block by your left hip as you sit in it. Is yours similar?
Cab plastics are extremely brittle and junk. And the recirculate cab filter and A/C, heat core are extremely difficult to service. Need to pull whole dash out. Such a brain fart from Jcb engineers.
Yeah i always think that. I had a rare monoscopic loadall so rigid boom think it was a W reg so about 1980 they boomed in popularity from then on. I couldn't believe watching sonne farms evaluate a loadall and blown away at idea of telescopic. In think there side the pond space isn't the issue so they had huge loading shovels which gave them the height reach without needing telescopic boom
If you think about it, in Europe we have grain warehouse's, while USA use bin's. So they don't have a need for a telehandlers to move and load the crops.
There just really isn’t a need for a Telehandler on most US farms. A Skid-Steer can handle most tasks you would find on a US Farm. I think there is a few main reasons why Telehandlers are more popular in the UK. 1. Farms are just not all that big in the UK on average. Therefor, the infrastructure has maximum space usage in mind with them being so compact. In the UK the barns tend to have overhead lofts where bales, tools, and equipment can be stored. 2. Farms in the UK tend to be spread out with plots all over the place. Telehandlers are known to have higher road speeds and can move from plot to plot fairly quickly to deliver seeds, fertilizer, tools, etc. 3. Because UK farms are smaller. They tend to have smaller equipment and implements, which need to be refilled more often. Hence, a telehandler being able to travel around efficiently. That’s just not the case in the US. US farms are hundreds to thousands of Acres and have dedicated buildings for the storage or Equipments, tools and bales. The equipment tends to be extremely large and holds enough seed, fertilizer to do many acres of work. Even if they do need a refill, a skid steer won’t help. They need full pump trucks or auger wagons to refill them. So Skid-Steers work just fine for moving around stuff, and they rarely leave the yard.
You've got those scammers working your channel. Thay are claiming that you are the winner of a prize and thay won't 139 or so for shipping and handling. You might worn everybody. Your the third farm channel that i watch that thay have tried ti on me.😣😣😣😣😣
Were I used to work they bought a JCB just like that one but 10 years older. We found out you must grease the lift cylinder daily or you will wear out the hole wear the bottom pin goes thru the cylinder. Also if you live were it gets bellow 0° make sure you get the cold weather package for the hydraulic oil. If you don't you can blow a hole in the hydraulic oil cooler while idling. That happened to me one morning. Happy birthday Brian.
jcb are horible we owned a 2015 it was strong we fliped over it a few times but barley broke it had nearly 7000hr then came 2023 and we sold it and got the agri series the first thing that broke was the buton to unlock the pin with only 600hr hydralic lines poped fell off and leak since 700hrs loads of times contacted jcb and asked if it was still in warenty and it was but they told us that we had to pay over $1000 just to come and put on the part and there only 30 miles from us and we have only put 1666 hours last time I was in it yesterday I had to drive 6 miles to our feedlot and back and it was 90 degrees and no air in it the air fan blows just hot outside air our farmer that we work with got one in 2022 and sold it a few months ago and got a Hyundai front end loader its nice and we got one as well and we might be puting that jcb for sale and keeping the atachments because our old john deer 4760 has a front end loader that we made jcb atachments for it but the front end loader is big and helps with loading our big feed truck only problem is it was from a dariy farm and moved sand for 5000 hours and has rust but were painting the bad spots
Well, your problem was you needed a hi-tip bucket (forward hinge bucket) which you should probably look into getting as well. Super handy for doing ground-to-hopper work since you can reduce the wear on the boom's wrist. That 420 is going to chew its tires up a little faster than your old one on surfaces, just take the articulation easy and smooth and it should last you a long time.
A good way to master forks on any telehandler. Boom out to the load, as a rule, instead of driving into a load. Tilt forks down till both fork tips are visible. Line forks up with load to be lifted. Extend boom to insert tips in load. Simultaneously boom down and tilt forks up to further insert forks in load. You're in. Now level out forks to match load and boom out, up, down, as required to fully insert and secure load. Takes practice to master however.
We have two 540-170 telehandlers which are running at 14000 and 15000 hours. We only had to redo the injector pump because of Kerosene in the diesel and on the other we did the brakes. Great machines
The young guy on 10th generation farm was getting out of their front entry skid steer and slipped on the bucket, it hurt. JCB is so far ahead of other makes, safer for sure.
Hey Brian to maybe help with fertilizer dust you could get that new loader ceramic coated. Will shed water and dust like nothing. Might help with fert dust as well!
Good to see you. Almost started to get BFV withdrawal. Have you been thinking about showing some crop scouting? It would interest me in seeing how the crops are progressing. That may be a broken record to you, but it never gets old to me. I've been thinking about the air on the combine header using so much power. You know more than me, but what if you changed nozzle direction or design? Maybe that fan should be in the middle. I would rather see more power used elsewhere.
You would be pushed to find an arable , livestock or mixed farm in the UK without a Telehandler , great bits of kit , add a pickup hitch and even more versatile.
538.60 means 5 series (all jcb telehandlers), 38 means 3.8 tonne lift (metric) and 60 means 6m reach! The agri models, agri super, pro etc are spec levels, usually go up in hp and gearbox (nicer dualtech one which is hydro at low speeds, gear manual at higher). Yes agri ones are way nicer to run, construction spec are very basic and slower in speed and hydraulic capacity. From england
In Europe these tele-handlers are used for everything. I had a Manitou and didn’t like it that much. Ours run 40 kph (most are regulated to 30) and its plenty fast for me.
That machine is barely ran in our claas scorpion is about a year old and has done 700 hours and that's on the low end for a year in the UK as we don't have any animals
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Truth is,,, DAD wanted the other one but it was TOOooo Expensive but NOW that Crops are doing GREAT he goes for the one he wanted,,, Nothin wrong with that,,,,
To sort the lack of visibility in forklift mode..................... it needs a camera. you are so very welcome. tell your dealer to tell jcb. tell 'em i told ya..................
If you want faster travel speed, JCB does make 50 kph (31 mph) versions of the 320S and 420S, with improved inboard oil immersed dual circuit front & rear axle bakes vs. the single circuit front only brakes on the the 40 kph (25 mph) models. The 320 and 420 models however only comes in 40 kph (25 mph) versions, while the 320S and 420S models comes in both 40 kph (25 mph) and 50 kph (31 mph) versions.
Happy birthday Brian and if recall BJ as well? The tm machines are a beast but watch when turning if boom out and loaded or ya end up on 3 wheel's quickly which can be abit unnerving. The pod cast with Ron was hilarious and looking forward to more to come. Cheers n beer's from Methven, New Zealand guy's 👍👍🍻🍻🚜👨🔧🇳🇿
Not being able to see the forks IS NOT the nature of all telehandlers. This is why I would never ever buy a low boom version. Normal telehandlers with the boom besider you are way easier to use.
TM420 is good machine we have one gets used daily had a TM320 before that loved it so universal what can be done with it. Radio will probably stay on to tho ours doesn’t shut off with the key only when shut the radio off itself.
We have a 560-80 So 6t lift 8m reach 13k lb lift 26ft reach Got 2000hrs on it and it's still fine the aircons in them are total junk if you live in a hot country (Australia) The biggest advantage on them is they have very large hydraulic pumps Compared to a loader tractor anyway So you can run quite large hydraulic implements This one will be interesting, iv seen you load fert inside your fert shed I wonder if you'll miss the 4 wheel steering of the tele handler Alot more capacity than the little tele handler you had thought
Nice walk around on the telehandler. I wondered if you would be happy trying to use it as a loader. You are going from a 6000 lbs unit to a 9000 lbs unit you should be happier with it. Must have got a six speed transmission. Enjoy your videos!
Nice upgrade Brian, 420 is a weapon. Over here in the UK we have a customer on a dairy farm who clocks almost 2000hrs a year on his loadall. Hope you enjoy the new one 👍
You won’t go wrong with a JCB Brian. 👍👍
Cup holder for a 32oz coffee mug....?!? From where that telehandler originates, that's considered a bucket of coffee...!!! 😉
The TM is a great machine we use them for pushing silage up pits
Metric is, 6.0 metre reach, 3.8 tonne max lift hence the 538-60
The agri controls are also different to a construction spec but the main difference is power and road speed
Q-fit is jcb specific
That side window lock needs adjustment.
The front loader telescopic jcb have bad engine.
That's one heck of an upgrade. I've seen a lot of livestock farmers having them. Great on moving bales and everything else around quickly.
538.60 meane series 5 lift power 3.8tons and 6 meters lifting height that yes 20foot somehow
Did you sell your old JCB to Mayer farm equipment? I swear I saw it in there lot. Plus it was from American equipment. Looks exactly like yours to.
Hi. How are you getting on with the 420? Is it noisy? We've just had a new one delivered (England). Very loud, sounds like a hydraulic pump/valve block by your left hip as you sit in it. Is yours similar?
I actually like jcb I work commercial masonry and are skytraks are non stop all day they are tough
Cab plastics are extremely brittle and junk. And the recirculate cab filter and A/C, heat core are extremely difficult to service. Need to pull whole dash out. Such a brain fart from Jcb engineers.
I'm surprised that there are so few telehandlers on farms in the States, here in the UK every other farm has them and probably half of them are JCB.
Thought the same . Looks like skid steers are the choice of equipment 🤗
Yeah i always think that. I had a rare monoscopic loadall so rigid boom think it was a W reg so about 1980 they boomed in popularity from then on. I couldn't believe watching sonne farms evaluate a loadall and blown away at idea of telescopic. In think there side the pond space isn't the issue so they had huge loading shovels which gave them the height reach without needing telescopic boom
I think people like the compactness of skid loaders…but really the tele handler is better machine…faster higher lift capacity
If you think about it, in Europe we have grain warehouse's, while USA use bin's. So they don't have a need for a telehandlers to move and load the crops.

Hey, um your light fixtures needs some attention Lol
you know that maybe someone hacked into computer keep getting whats app responses.

The radio is adjustable you just need to change the settings is all the it will turn off when you turn the machine off

After some time has passed, how do you like it now???

Holy cow! That’s definitely an upgrade! 👍🏻
I run 4 jcb loaders and I find that the site thing is you open the door then close the window will seal
When you close the top door, you need to open the bottom door at the same time, it will never seal properly unless the bottom door is open
wish we had that to clean our chicken house....haha
love JCB they are made about a 2 hour drive away was brought up on them well done be safe from the UK

Brian Brown, you're putting out great content. SEND IT!
We have two 540-170 telehandlers which are running at 14000 and 15000 hours. We only had to redo the injector pump because of Kerosene in the diesel and on the other we did the brakes. Great machines
Master switches are a great thing…… saves batteries.
JCB, excellent european brand!
Have the tm320 at work and love it. The 420 is awesome! You will enjoy it much more
The young guy on 10th generation farm was getting out of their front entry skid steer and slipped on the bucket, it hurt. JCB is so far ahead of other makes, safer for sure.

Brian and Luke did some field scouting recently. I’m not sure if he’s released the video yet.
must have been a profitbable year
You would be pushed to find an arable , livestock or mixed farm in the UK without a Telehandler , great bits of kit , add a pickup hitch and even more versatile.
I was wondering about this, now I’ll know
Happy Birthday did you get your metal building figured out?
Happy Birthday Brian have a great day with your family
538.60 means 5 series (all jcb telehandlers), 38 means 3.8 tonne lift (metric) and 60 means 6m reach!

Happy Birthday a few days late.
Brian was wrong, site telehandlers run all day
Saving the Podcast for Friday when I mow the yard!
Farming insider purchased the same JCB 420, was lifting 3900 pound bale piles without any issues.
Kind off sounds like you don’t know much about what your talking about
Probably don’t
Gunna need a bigger bucket ;)
How is the visibility with the forks on the new machine???
So you downgraded then...
I done listened to em all
Brian is it your birthday or Dad ,Enjoy the video .
In Europe these tele-handlers are used for everything. I had a Manitou and didn’t like it that much. Ours run 40 kph (most are regulated to 30) and its plenty fast for me.
Nice
Is Kaitlin going with you
so whats the deal with the gehl?
European cup holder spec
Already listened to the podcast while I was bush hogging.
Its great to see that JCB is a popular brand in the States too
Awesome looking unit Brian
That machine is barely ran in our claas scorpion is about a year old and has done 700 hours and that's on the low end for a year in the UK as we don't have any animals
That’s a lot in a year for sure
60 = 6 metres
TM = Telemaster 😄😄
Happy birthday 🎊🎉🎂🎈!
Put weights on it..
I wish they would add you guys to farm sim 22
something worng
Ever see that JCB TeleSkid? Not as big but everyone seems to like it
I’d Love to have one
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Truth is,,, DAD wanted the other one but it was TOOooo Expensive but NOW that Crops are doing GREAT he goes for the one he wanted,,, Nothin wrong with that,,,,

blimey !! you know lots !!
Can’t go wrong with anything 420! 🤙💪
Did not hear Mornin but I got my like 👍 in anyways. Happy subscriber 😊!
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
Happy birthday
What do you think about those JCB trackters???😳😳😳
Happy birthday Brian and if recall BJ as well? The tm machines are a beast but watch when turning if boom out and loaded or ya end up on 3 wheel's quickly which can be abit unnerving. The pod cast with Ron was hilarious and looking forward to more to come. Cheers n beer's from Methven, New Zealand guy's 👍👍🍻🍻🚜👨🔧🇳🇿
Thanks
Both top machines Brian but when you get older the 528 :80 far easier to get in and out off😀👍
That’s a nice bday gift guys😁y’all keep em comin 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Not being able to see the forks IS NOT the nature of all telehandlers. This is why I would never ever buy a low boom version. Normal telehandlers with the boom besider you are way easier to use.
We tried a few JCB through the years I've never liked any of there equipment the tractor backhoe was a real pile
I have a JCB 526. Bit smaller and now around 8000 house on her works every day
TM420 is good machine we have one gets used daily had a TM320 before that loved it so universal what can be done with it. Radio will probably stay on to tho ours doesn’t shut off with the key only when shut the radio off itself.
Happy birthday for 2nd August Brian, sorry I missed the day.
New JCB nice present.
🌏🇦🇺
Pls need help,
That Tele loader looks like will be handy to have around..congrats!!
We have a TM320 and we love it.
Enjoyed the podcast! Referee Ron!
I really enjoyed the new Tele-handler, I think it’s going to be a really good addition to your farm.
If you think seeing the outside fork is bad with a telehandler wait till you drive a tm420s 🤣 it's the worst out there
We have a 560-80
So 6t lift 8m reach 13k lb lift 26ft reach
Got 2000hrs on it and it's still fine
the aircons in them are total junk if you live in a hot country (Australia)
The biggest advantage on them is they have very large hydraulic pumps
Compared to a loader tractor anyway
So you can run quite large hydraulic implements
This one will be interesting, iv seen you load fert inside your fert shed
I wonder if you'll miss the 4 wheel steering of the tele handler
Alot more capacity than the little tele handler you had thought
You should make a bracket to hang tractor weights on the rear of the JCB.
THAT'S a PLAN..................................
Nice walk around on the telehandler. I wondered if you would be happy trying to use it as a loader. You are going from a 6000 lbs unit to a 9000 lbs unit you should be happier with it. Must have got a six speed transmission. Enjoy your videos!
😁😁👍👍👍👍👍
Congratulations on the new equipment and happy Birthday!
Thanks
I surprised you guys don't have a JCB farm tractor if you have a dealer near buy that you like.
Toys for boys, greetings out of Pennsylvania from a dutch dairyfarmer
They stole the Gehl?
H/B to you Brain your guys toy's just keep getting BIGGER nice p.s. I know there working toy's
🔥👊🔥🔨🏍⚙️
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always Brian!!!
