Our two-speed hydrostatic gearbox makes it easy for operators of this machine to move with precision even in the tightest areas. The oscillating central joint ensures that all four wheels continuously maintain maximum traction.
The drive system works in conjunction with the braking system thanks to an impulse operation system associated with the foot brake. This solution ensures excellent multifunctional operation and power boosting during loading and reloading.
You'll give your JCB 403 exceptional traction and performance in soft and muddy terrain if you choose 100% locking differentials on the front and rear axles.
To ensure the highest capacity, choose the most suitable arm for your loader. The standard arm is ideal for general work and those requiring high breaking/lifting forces. The extended high lift arms are used for stacking and loader work at height. You are guaranteed parallel lifting in every situation.
Two powerful lifting cylinders make the JCB 403 perform its daily lifting tasks with ease. This is supported by a perfectly balanced counterweight for maximum stability.
A wide range of quick couplers is available for your wheel loader, all of which are equipped with a hydraulic pin lock as standard. This allows you to change attachments easily and safely from the comfort of the operator's seat.

We have carefully selected the best key components for the JCB 403 wheel loader including Kubota engine, ZF axles and Bosch Rexroth hydraulic pumps. All have been developed to work together harmoniously for cost-effectiveness, reliability and production performance.
The reinforced axle supports absorb the enormous stresses created by the loader's continuous heavy-duty operation. Our high-strength central joint withstands vertical and horizontal loads, ensuring maximum durability and rigidity for the machine.The loader arms are one of the hardest-working components in any wheel loader, feeling the effects of daily tasks. The patent-protected 403 machine arms are designed to distribute forces evenly across the front of the chassis increasing strength, durability and longevity.The solid, cast counterweight protects against damage from crashes. Protective plates underneath the 403 machine protect the engine and drive train from impacts.

To protect against damage, the hydraulic hoses are carefully routed and secured along the arms of the loader, far enough away from potential jamming points.

This loader has been subjected to a rigorous testing programme that includes load tests on the chassis, loader arms and other key components, as well as thousands of gearbox engagements in typical duty cycles.

The new wheel loader benefits from a comfortable and spacious cab. The operator's station is designed to provide optimum visibility around the entire machine, unobstructed by obstructions such as exhaust pipes and air filters.
Our tiltable, telescopic steering column is easy to adjust to the ergonomic driving position. Switching from high to low speed only requires the touch of a finger on a button located on the joystick.The compact 403 loader comes as standard with a new, ergonomically designed joystick control system, which ensures comfortable and intuitive operation of the machine. This means that you can control all arm/auxiliary circuit movements with your hand, from a single position.You can manoeuvre quickly and easily by changing the direction of travel with the reversing switch located on the joystick (FNR).

With a height of less than 2.2m and a width of 1.1m, this new compact loader can reach even the smallest production spaces such as chicken coops and outbuildings. The small wheelbase and steering angle of the central joint 40 are not insignificant.

Easily lock or fix the forward hydraulic flow using the auxiliary circuit control lever. The control provides a constant flow of up to 40.5 l/min for attachments such as sweepers and feeders.

Our large, one-piece bonnet allows quick and convenient access to the engine compartment and cooling block area of the 403 supercharger. All points of daily inspection are easily accessible under the bonnet.
The dashboard gives operators clear information with a fuel gauge, analogue coolant temperature readout, LCD operating hours display, high gear display and all the usual warning lights.Accessing the fuel tank and refuelling from ground level is easy. A permanent pre-filter is located in the fuel filler port to protect your machine from contaminated fuel.An electronic 2-stage quick-disconnect system is installed in the cab to prevent accidental release of the attachment. ROPS and FOPS approved cabs and canopies are available as options.

The entrance steps are sloped and complemented by well-placed handholds so that operators have three points of contact when entering/exiting the cabin.

A battery disconnect protects your JCB 403 loader from failure or theft.
