The 18Z-1 is JCB’s first zero tailswing machine in the1-2 ton excavator class, with an operating weight of 3,856 lb (1,749 kg). It is designed and manufactured for maximum durability, with features such as all-steel bodywork. Additionally, 500-hour greasing intervals minimize operator burden and reduce downtime.
