The JCB 525-60 AGRI is a model in the JCB Telescopic Forklift series. The engine delivers 74.8 hp (55 kW), has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 2,500.7 cm³. Torque is 300 Nm. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm. The machine is 1,970 mm high. The wheelbase measures 2,392.7 mm. Ground clearance is 332.2 mm. Maximum torque is reached at 1,500 rpm. Lift height is 6,000 mm. The engine fitted is the JCB DIESEL BY KOHLER. The JCB Telescopic Forklift series covers 57 models. Rated output within it ranges from 45.3 to 146.9 hp; the 525-60 AGRI sits in the lower part of that range with 74.8 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 516-40 AGRI below it with 64 hp and the 520 above it with 77.1 hp. Rated output within it ranges from 33.3 to 108.1 kW; here the 525-60 AGRI sits in the lower part of that range with 55 kW. 788 JCB models across 59 series are on record.

JCB Loadall — the number before the dash is load, after it height

JCB telehandlers carry their key figures in the name. Before the dash stands the rated lift capacity, after it the lift height. A 525-60 lifts 2.5 tonnes to 6 metres; a 514-40 reaches 4 metres. Comparing two machines needs no data sheet — the designation says it.

That makes the range unusually easy to read. A 531-70 lifts around 3.1 tonnes to 7 metres, a 541-70 a good 4 tonnes to the same height. The first number decides the load, the second the reach — and together they decide whether the machine suits the job.

A trailing T marks differing versions of the same size, as in the 531-T70 against the 531-70. Anyone sourcing parts or comparing offers should read that letter too; it separates variants that would otherwise read alike.

One thing stays important with any telehandler: rated capacity applies to a specific load centre and to the boom retracted. The further the boom extends, the less may hang from it. What a machine may actually lift in a given position is in the load chart — not in the type designation.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
