About the JCB 560-80

The JCB 560-80 is a purpose-built heavy-lift telehandler — the go-to machine when you need significant reach combined with a serious payload. With an 8.0m maximum reach and a 6,000 kg rated capacity, it handles precast concrete panels, structural steel, heavy industrial racking, and bulk bagged materials that sit well above the payload ceiling of standard construction telehandlers.

JCB's EcoMAX engine delivers strong torque at low RPM, giving the 560-80 the pulling power to move and place heavy loads efficiently. The machine runs four-wheel drive as standard with multiple steering modes for operation on varied terrain.

Why Hire from Geelong Access Hire?

The 560-80 fills a specific gap in the fleet — loads that are too heavy for a standard 3–4 tonne telehandler and don't need the reach of a crane. For precast panel work, heavy plant delivery, and large-scale industrial lifting, it is often the most efficient and cost-effective solution.
