A Walkaround Hillhead with Georgina

JCB had a big presence at Hillhead this year in more ways than one, and Georgina Williams who has become a familiar face at JCB, has produced a fantastic walkaround video showcasing just what the Staffordshire based manufacturer had to show us this time around.

Georgina who started her journey at JCB as a test operator has become an ever-present representative for the manufacturer, always pleasant and always happy to talk about backhoe loaders which have become her passion.

JCB had plenty to shout about at Hillhead this time around, with the two large hydraulic excavators, 42-tonne class 420XLC and 52-tonne class 520XLC, JCB’s largest ever hydraulic excavator, taking centre stage. And the Hydrogen powered 3CX which is now in full production was attracting lots of attention.

In addition, there were previews for the new 715 articulated hauler, Dual Drive 9-tonne dumper and the 490 wheeled loading shovel, which once again, is their largest shovel to date, powered by a Stage V, Cummins 6-cylinder diesel engine producing a power output of 250kW (335hp).

It’s a fairly long video, so grab a coffee, and enjoy the JCB Hillhead tour with Georgina.
