The manufacturer says that it has been engineered to meet demanding standards and claims it to be one of the strongest and highest-performing minis in JCB’s lineup. 

Designed for productivity, agility, and ease of ownership, the 50Z-1 is compact, powerful, economical to operate, and built with operator safety and comfort in mind.

A rotary dial screen navigation system and ergonomic switch layout make controlling the machine easy.

JCB says they have placed a significant emphasis on operator comfort with the 50Z-1. 

The machine features reduced noise and vibration levels, making it a more comfortable space to work. 

The 50Z-1 is powered by a Nachi slew motor, providing superior torque and control, alongside a Bosch Rexroth pump and main control valve for enhanced hydraulic performance. 

JCB has integrated safety and serviceability features into the 50Z-1 to ensure operator protection and minimise downtime.

It also comes with a lift overload warning system displayed on-screen and optional super-bright LED lights with a follow-me-home feature for improved safety in low-light conditions.

Programmable auto-idle and four engine modes help optimise fuel consumption, further lowering operational costs.
