The JCB 507-42 is designed for contractors who need more reach without moving into the heaviest telehandler classes. It combines a 7,000 lb maximum lift capacity with a 42 ft lift height and 28 ft of forward reach, allowing materials to be placed across foundations, walls and other jobsite obstacles. The machine retains 6,000 lb of capacity at maximum height and 1,600 lb at full reach, making it well suited to elevated material placement.

A 74 hp JCB EcoMAX Tier 4 Final diesel engine powers the machine, while front-wheel, all-wheel and crab steering provide flexibility when working around structures or in restricted areas. Rear axle stabilization and frame sway help support controlled lifting on uneven terrain, and proportional boom controls allow operators to position loads accurately at height. The result is a telehandler aimed squarely at construction work where reach and placement accuracy matter.
