Finding the right wheel loader often forces a compromise between compact agility and large-capacity power. The all-new JCB 424ZX officially bridges that gap. Designed specifically for operations that require aggressive breakout capability without inflated owning and operating costs, the 424ZX delivers heavy-duty performance tailored for mid-range demands.

Optimized Capacity and Aggressive Power

Built around an optimized 2.6 cu yd standard bucket, the 424ZX slots directly between the JCB 417 (2.1 cu yd) and the 427 (3.1 cu yd). Under the hood sits a proven 4.8L JCB EcoMax engine producing 145 HP and 413 lb-ft of torque—all without a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to reduce maintenance downtime and operating complexity.

Paired exclusively with heavy-duty ZX loader arms (Z-bar linkage), the machine delivers a class-leading 32,328 lbf of breakout force and a full-turn tipping load of 19,433 lbs. Whether you are handling aggregate, loose materials, or tough digging cycles, the 424ZX provides the muscle of a larger machine while maintaining the tight maneuverability jobsites require.

Key Performance Highlights:

• JCB EcoMax 4.8L Engine: Tier 4 Final compliant with no DPF.
• ZF Ergo-Power 4-Speed Transmission: Smooth powershift operation reaching roading speeds up to 22.6 mph.
• Clutch Cut-Off (CCO) System: Automatically diverts engine power directly to hydraulics during braking for faster cycle times.
• Tough Driveline: Standard auto-locking front differential and heavy-duty ZF axles for maximum traction in rough terrain.
• Command Cab Comfort: Ergonomic workspace featuring a heated air-suspension seat, climate control, single-lever servo joystick, and a 7-inch digital display.
• Simplified Maintenance: 3-piece gull-wing hood with ground-level fill points, an auto-reversing cooling fan, and extended service intervals (up to 4,000 hours on hydraulic oil with condition monitoring).

Ready to Work

The JCB 424ZX comes standard with 3-spool hydraulics, quick-hitch readiness, and JCB Smooth Ride System (SRS) to keep cycle times fast, operators comfortable, and material in the bucket.
