The 541-70 AGRI PLUS from JCB is part of the JCB Telescopic Forklift series. The engine delivers 126.7 hp (93.2 kW), has 4 cylinders, with a displacement of 4,400 cm³. Torque is 527.4 Nm. Rated speed is 2,200 rpm. The machine is 2,540 mm high. The unladen weight is 7,561.4 kg. Ground clearance is 481.6 mm. The gearbox has 4 forward gears. There are also 4 reverse gears. Maximum torque is reached at 1,300 rpm. The pump delivers 191.2 l/min. Working pressure is 259.9 bar. The electrical system runs on 12 V. Lift height is 7,000 mm. The engine fitted is the 444. Tyre size: 500/70 R24. The JCB Telescopic Forklift series covers 57 models. Rated output within it ranges from 45.3 to 146.9 hp; the 541-70 AGRI PLUS sits in the upper part of that range with 126.7 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 560-80 WASTEMASTER below it with 126.5 hp and the 550-80 AGRI above it with 146.9 hp. Unladen weight within it ranges from 2,442 to 12,160.8 kg; here the 541-70 AGRI PLUS sits in the middle of that range with 7,561.4 kg. 788 JCB models across 59 series are on record.

JCB Loadall — the number before the dash is load, after it height, plus stabilisers and frame levelling on the larger models

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.

On larger JCB Loadall models with greater lift height, extending stabiliser legs are also fitted, widening the support base so that the load-chart figures for supported operation become valid in the first place; a frame-levelling system also corrects cross-slope in the ground by a few degrees, keeping the boom vertical even on slightly uneven terrain.

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.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
