It’s actually a very well written and comprehensive book th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 . I wanted to pair this with an updated book on local codes to start planning a post-retirement dream shop. I think I have just about everything I need between the two.

Having a landscaping company and putting lots of hours on skid steers ..and testing them all except the JCB, but far the kubota is the most unrefined machine out there. i would rank them as followed 1.) Cat 2.)bobcat 3a) john deere 3b) takeuchi 4.) kubota/case/ new holland i’d like to try the jcb teleskid because that added feature would be nice , problem i would see is they don’t have a 90 hp machine . i seriously looked into the kubota because of the price point but interior features just left me wanting more . loud on the inside and jumpy. Reminded me of an old mustang skid steer
I would be worried about the single arm boom after thousands of hours of dirt work etc. that would be hard on any bearings and joints no matter how much they supposedly reinforced it. Hitting a few rocks, hard stuff on that left side of a bucket or attachment may create some serious problems in the future, I'm almost 100% sure those problems would crop up just outside of warranty as well, since that's how stuff goes... Crossing my fingers and am thankful for the companies that go out there and risk it so if I see them on sale used just outside warranty, that will be a good tell....
Joeziah Babb it’s a lot stronger than you think ..... you keep them joints greased it will last well , it’s a good machine in wet or hard dry clay and in 10 years the only problems I’ve had are ram seals weeping
Great review .I was hesitant on this machine but I think it would work well for what jobs that I have coming up. This would work quite well for me. Thank you for taking the time on this review.
I had a Kubota that would barely let me use more than one function at a time and I hated it because it was so SLOW . It was an older mode. Already paid for , those 3 words mean a lot especially when you like what you already have. Mid to high 90's is a lot of money for a skidsteer in my opinion, used was usually good enough for me.
Our 97-2 kubota has been in shop for two months not a fan as they still can’t fix it or know what’s wrong with it 😤. As the mechanic I could see most filters looks very easily accessible 👍. I am going to forward this clip to my boss. We are a landscaping company. I think this machine is perfect
The comment you made about slow movement when attempting to perform multiple boom operations simultaneously might be related to the hydraulic pump in the machine. Booming the loader arm out/in, up/down, tilting the bucket up/down, and moving the machine forward/reverse all place demands for hydraulic fluid power on those functions, which requires a pump that is capable of delivering a specific flow rate. When you start trying to perform multiple operations simultaneously, the pump's ability to push fluid to each of the drive motors, the rams, etc. is compromised. Engine HP, space constraints for locating the pump, and other factors all play into sizing a pump as well. It's nice to have the ability to boom in and out, but if the operation of the boom slows every other function down, the efficiency loss (and decreased productivity) might not be worth the benefit of a telescoping loader arm.
Important phrase,,, "Kubota is paid for". 🤔🤔 JCB does have some great innovations but as you said it's subjective. What suits me certainly might not suit the next guy. GOOD VIDEO!! THANKS
Maybe they need to rethink the Hydraulic system a bit. Maybe a higher capacity pump or a second loop. The reason you slow way down on doing "multiple things at once" is that your maxing out the hydraulic system. At least that's my thoughts...I've seen it on other hydraulic systems so...
@@silverbackag9790 : No they are not; Volvo’s are their own brand with their own standards. Volvo’s do not have telescoping booms or a few other options/standards that JCB’s do.
@@libertarian1637 JCB makes not telescoping boom one armed skidsteers too. And they sell them through their dealers and also paint them in Volvo colors for their sales.
@@silverbackag9790: I’ve operated both machines and they are quite different on both the inside and out, beyond just the telescoping boom option. The instrument panels are different, in my experience, just because they both offer side entrance doesn’t make them the same, in that case is every over the bucket entry machines the same maker.
The side door and boom arm are some very good innovations. In the past I have operated many machines and a fair amount of time on a JCB backhoe. I hope this machine holds up better then the backhoes do, they are crap when it comes to heavy machinery.
Kyle, liked the vid...wish woulda gone more in depth w/ a few things. Like: what attachments can you use w/ this, & go over the controls a little....along w/ safety features. Otherwise, thanks for the vid. Also....had a “thing” on lens of camera I think....thought was a dead pixel on my screen or smudge; & I kept trying to get rid/fix for 1-2 minutes till realized was your gear🤣🤣 Also, look forward to your vids👍🏻, you have me hooked!😆 Cheers✌🏼
No comparison between the kubota and teleskid… more power more speed more versatility… only draw back of the teleskid is the hiflow at 33gpm vs the kubota 38 The 95v2 claims 40gpm it hits 38 at 100%
I have one move 1500 pound bales no problem all machine's have goods and bads you will love it when you buy it and all the controls are customized to you just my thoughts I wouldn't buy anything alse can't believe you like Kubota my option as a rancher they are junk have owned them and rub them not impressed
Nice. I would like an update on "How to Build a Garage Addition" series. I would like to see the finished project and how it was all attached if possible.
JCB isn't the only one doing this. Volvo has a single arm skid steer with a side door. Volvo's arm doesn't telescope out but the machines look the same otherwise.
I wouldn't touch ANY new diesel equipment. This TIER IV and DEF kill everything. Extremely high maintenance costs and constant breakdowns. I'd buy an older machine and pay someone to restore it before I'd even think about buying new. Ask the fleet operators. Ask OTR drivers why they're getting out of the business. Government mandated JUNK. Even Caterpillar got out of OTR engines.
JCB is not the only brand that got the one arm, you can get the same one with a VOLVO sticker. www.volvoce.com/global/en/our-offer/compact-track-loaders/
It may be a JCB and not a CAT innovation, But JCB have plants within N America. Where do you think a lot of this new innovation comes from. My guess a lot of American customers needs and creative people in those plants that have to compete in a serious competitive market. Yes im British and quite proud of there achievements. But i know its innovations of today are now coming from the likes of you guys. its only time before it becomes an American owned compony im sure. Yes they sell all over the world, But yours is i guess its biggest market and most demanding and most likely where most of its future upgrades will derive from. Its not really British engineering anymore is it. Or may be it hasn't been for some time now. Shit, We don't even own Cadburys now.
May not be the end all review, but it's most likely the best I can do. Not sure what the future holds or if I'll keep it. My kubota is paid for.....
RR Buildings for $90,000. I’d keep the Kubota too.

That side door is awesome. Being able to get out with the arms up is a big plus, and safer.
Props to JCB for loaning it to you. It is nice to see companies that recognize the influence of TH-cam/social media.
Volvo also builds skid steers with one loader arm and a side door. They do not, however have a telescopic boom.
They are JCBs in Volvo paint.
Just pulled the trigger on one as our very first piece of owned heavy equipment. Thanks for the videos, I'll let you know how it works out at IBS!
So how is it?
How does it perform 😊

Great review .I was hesitant on this machine but I think it would work well for what jobs that I have coming up. This would work quite well for me. Thank you for taking the time on this review.
I really love the side door and the easy attach.
Awesome video Kyle. Did anyone else almost scratch their screen off trying to get what seems to be on the camera lens?
Skyland Design Studio - I did!
I kept scratching at it
Hey Kyle, did you ever do a final video for the addition to the garage where the client wanted to change the colour of the steel?
To whoever was the camera operator. Respect. You could be a DOP... Director of photography.

RR Buildings Your brother is a natural. 👍
He has been shooting my toolsdays for almost a year now or better
Sean O'Brien thank you very much! 🙏😊
Watching tons of JCB videos. I start my new job with JCB in two days.
So the boom what is the reach? Is there an attachment for the teleboom?
Texas Best Construction - the forward reach is 4 feet and it can accept ant skid steer attachment
I’ve owned 6 JCB machines I love them, I’ll continue to buy them till I retire

KYLE, dont forget to mention the boom carries a LIFETIME warranty to the machine not just the original owner.
Another comment from a different site said they lie and won't honor a lifetime warranty on the boom. Best get it in writing if you go JCB
Definitely an awesome Machine, but 70-90k, that’s nuts!
Yeah. I looked it up just for giggles... The price of equipment is mind blowing.
@@FullSendPrecision all equipment
These things are becoming like a luxury buy. There’s no way a small business guy can get a return on investment with this thing.
Wade Plank agreed
Mac Family cheap 70-90$ same as my gmc Denali DURAMAX cost me 87$ brand new same thing I can afford it CHEAP!!!!!!!!

Wow that's amazing I really like the boom how it operates is very cool and super convenient that is very nice!👍
With it slowing down while doing all functions at the same time, it sounds like the hydraulic pump is too small/weak to handle all of that at once.
I'm pretty sure he just needs to increase the throttle he does't have much time and didn't ask the maker/dealer about it
@@Viewer19 i demoed it not an issue slowing down.

Surprised CAT did not come up with that ext boom concept for their skid loaders. Thought they were the king of equipment
Jack Schissler they have been behind the times for years now
CAT is focused on larger machines.
The side door and boom arm are some very good innovations. In the past I have operated many machines and a fair amount of time on a JCB backhoe. I hope this machine holds up better then the backhoes do, they are crap when it comes to heavy machinery.
What's the trailer you had the skid steer on? It looks sharp!
B&B 20K tilt deck
I've owned JCB equipment,had good reliability,sometimes starving oil flow in a multi function application on the older stuff.Overall,i liked it.
You ever use their equipment in sub zero temperatures?
Those B and B tilt deck trailers are awesome too!!

Kyle, good golly dude is there a battery powered tool you don’t have? Some of them have totally blown me away. Especially the track saw from Dewalt
Does it run off CAT controls?
either
Keep up the great videos! this is the second video I’ve watched of yours today and immediately knew I had to subscribe.👷♂️🔨👏🏼
Thanks
Just curious why you would want one of these over a mini telehandler with aux hydro. Besides the track of course.
That's fast. But what was type of Kubota that are you talking about just now? I don't get it clearly
hows the visibility around that boom on your right?
Douglas Morgan very poor at normal operating levels
I’m curious how the boom will handle over time. What type of guides does it have?
We demo one, did not have near the hydraulic power as others (New Holland)
Did you finance your first piece of equipment you bought? Thanks for your videos!!
That mud on lense is driving my ocd nuts ! :P
Kyle, great job. How do you think the unit will do digging a driveway or small swimming pool?
Having the boom definitely makes it more versatile. Yeah. It's pricey. How's the price compare to other skidsteers?
i got quoted 86k few weeks back
Great video thanks for sharing have a great day and stay safe out there
Now that is a luxury
:D Watching my favorite youtubers on my birthday!! Score!
Why can't you just leave the boom extended when not in tight quarters and in soft loose dirt?
That thing is pretty awesome!
Check out Volvo they also do a side open single arm machine as well. Great vid thanks for the content
Made by jcb... same machine just rebranded
Living in Florida you had me at "It has a Killer A/C system"😁
I thought you used the JCB to dig holes, lift and set the walls and set a few trusses at the hunting lodge you're currently showing on TH-cam?
Only some holes and move material never trusses
Volvo also has side access doors
Red Star it’s a jcb badged up
Very nice piece of equipment but is it better than the other brand "paid for" I don't think so.
Nice video Kyle super super toy's I love you buildings great job bro 👍👊👊👊
Review the B&B Trailer. High light the heavy duty axles.
Do you still have this machine and if so are you having good luck with it?
Volvo had a one-armed bandit with a side door as well.

Stick with the kabota. Orange looks good on you
So Kyle, how does it compare to a real telehandler?

No comparison between the kubota and teleskid… more power more speed more versatility… only draw back of the teleskid is the hiflow at 33gpm vs the kubota 38
The 95v2 claims 40gpm it hits 38 at 100%

Where do the Milwaukee 18v batteries go?
That toolsday music at the start is the best haha
Ever used any Cat equipment? Opinion?
You said the it is the only on with side entrance but that's not true. The Volvo is side entry also... Just an FYI 😊
Jcb makes these for volvo
Yes Owen I know that but jcb makes that lol
good for farm s or light material. if use in construction maintenance is going to be high (poor)
Very cool machine thanks for sharing.
Can u do a video about how u got to be a constructor
Kyle how many cup holders? 😀
Farmers already doing corn silage in your area?
male rows get cut down in seed corn
volvo also has one kinda like that (not the tele boom)

Ohh Kyle you're such a tease
Volvo has a skidsteer with side door to.
Be waiting for the comparison.

for toolsdays, my brother
That detached were out in about a year or 1000 hours

What’s the cost ?😊
Hey, thank you!
got one hate it. Its burned up once. boom been rebuilt 3 times at the tune of 4000 dollars each time. 4500 hrs. is all that on it
They lifetime warranty the boom. I'm calling BS on your post.
