New JCB 560-80 5.5t telehandler joins the fleet

2 Jul 2025

A new JCB 560-80 telehandler is purchased from CEA and upgraded to mine spec with EQSS to meet growing demand across heavy industries.

Enviro Plant Hire has welcomed a new JCB 560-80 telehandler to our fleet this week.

Due to customer demand, we decided to purchase another one of these 5.5-tonne workhorses, used for lifting and placing heavy loads in construction, agriculture, mining and industrial settings.

We were super happy with the fast turnaround from our distributor. We only placed our order with CEA Perth last week, and they worked over the weekend to upgrade it to Australian mine spec (including a full EQSS system), delivering it to us yesterday.

This model offers improved comfort and a smart hydraulic system that delivers increased fuel efficiency. Along with its three steering modes for manoeuvrability, it's a leader in its class.

The 560-80 has an operating weight of 10,775kg, engine-rated power of 93kW, lift capacity of 5,500kg and lift height of 7.9m. It's often used with forks or a quick-hitch bucket, but is compatible with a wide range of attachments, including the hydraulic fork tyne positioners supplied.

Enviro Plant Hire’s fleet is as tough and rugged as the environments where our machines do their work. Visit the EPH website to see our full equipment range.
