Grassmen get Down & Dirty with the JCB 140XLC

The team behind the hugely successful Irish agricultural media platform Grassmen, have been trying out a demonstration model of JCB’s 140XLC hydraulic excavator and have produced a series of videos to cover it.

Following their demonstration period the Grassmen guys headed along the North Coast where they met up with agricultural contractors Chris Freeman & Sons who, as existing JCB users, were keen to try out the new model which, along with its larger sister machines, continues to make a big impact on sites across the UK and Ireland.

The demonstrator model was supplied by Irish JCB dealers Dennisons who also sent along their salesman and product specialist “Generator Jeff” to give the Grassmen team the lowdown on what’s new with the X-Series machines.

As we have discovered previously during our own test drive opportunities, the British built JCB's X-Series models really are game changing excavators, and we are seeing more and more companies adding them to their fleets. and its not hard to see why. The significant money spent on the research and development of these machines is really paying dividends now which is great to see.
