Arnold Plant Hire has become the first rental company to invest in a fleet of JCB Teleskids, taking delivery of six 3TS-8W models.

Supplied by Gunn JCB, the investment builds on the Stockport-based firm’s longstanding relationship with JCB, which includes operating the UK’s largest fleet of JCB Teletruks.

Arnold Plant Hire Director Stuart Hunter said: “We are delighted to add this innovative product to our existing range. The JCB Teleskid offers our customers the world’s safest and most versatile skid steer loader and makes a strong addition to our specialist machinery portfolio.”

The 3TS-8W is apparently the only skid steer with a telescopic boom, offering greater lift height, forward reach and dig depth than any other model in its class. A side-entry cab and single-arm Powerboom provide enhanced operator safety and visibility.

Powered by a 55kW Stage V JCB DieselMAX engine, the Teleskid also  includes an upgraded cab, a 7” touchscreen display, rear-view camera, electro-hydraulic bucket levelling and joystick customisation via the 'MyChoice' system.

Arnold Plant Hire operates a fleet of more than 500 machines and has over 30 years’ experience supplying equipment to the waste and recycling industry. The new Teleskids are now available for hire across the UK.
