About · JCB 170

Overview

The JCB 170 is a compact skid-steer loader with an operating weight of 2510 kg and an engine output of 47 hp. It is equipped with a bucket capacity of 0.38 m3, placing it in the light end of the skid-steer segment. The machine is positioned as a versatile, space-efficient loader suited to contractors and operators who require a compact footprint without sacrificing practical lifting and loading capability.

Typical applications

Where this machine is used

Compact skid-steer loaders in this class are commonly deployed on construction sites, landscaping projects, agricultural yards, and municipal works where maneuverability in confined spaces is a priority. The 0.38 m3 bucket capacity makes the JCB 170 appropriate for material handling, site clearance, and groundworks tasks. Its compact dimensions also make it a practical choice for indoor demolition or warehouse applications where larger machines cannot operate.

Used-market inspection

What to check before buying

When inspecting a used JCB 170, attention should be given to the condition of the lift arms, pivot points, and hydraulic hoses, as these components experience significant cyclic loading in skid-steer applications. The undercarriage, including drive motors, tracks or tyres, and chassis frame, should be assessed for wear consistent with the machine's recorded hours. Engine condition, coolant integrity, and the functionality of all auxiliary hydraulic circuits warrant close examination. A service history confirming regular maintenance intervals adds material confidence to any purchase decision.

Current market

Price position

Available data places the European market average for the JCB 170 at EUR 13,899. Buyers evaluating this model should consider comparable machines in the same segment, including the Bobcat S130 and the Mecalac MCL6, when benchmarking value and specification against budget. The narrow price range observed in current market data suggests limited supply variability, which buyers should factor into acquisition planning.
