Metronix put the New 3CX to the Test

Last week we were up at the fantastic JCB quarry facility to get a “hands on” experience with a number of new machines, among them the latest Stage V reincarnation of the 3CX backhoe loader, which I hope to be covering in more detail in a future edition of Earthmovers Magazine.

But on my return from Staffordshire, I spent some time trawling the web for more footage of the new machines and came across the latest video from our Romanian friends Julian & Diana of the Metronix JCB You Tube channel.

The husband-and-wife team produce some great content on their channel which has now amassed a global audience of 21.6k subscribers, who regularly check in to watch their original and engaging content.

The JCB loving duo have recently been able to try out the latest servo joystick style 3CX courtesy of Central European dealers Terra JCB and have produced a great video review of the machine which I will post below.

In addition, Terra JCB have also loaned them a cross pattern stick machine to try out for around 3 weeks, so we can expect more videos featuring that model too.

Checkout the video, which is in Romanian language with English subtitles.

Big thanks to Julian and Diana for allowing us to share their video here on the Digger Man Blog.
