Electric mini excavator with heated cab
JCB offers a fully glazed cab on the 19C-1E, an industry first for the electric mini excavator sector.
This development will increase its appeal in countries with a colder, wetter climate. The machine uses the same spacious cab as JCB’s conventional 1- to 2-ton models and will be equipped with an electric heater to provide instant heat to demist windows and warm the cab working environment for the operator.

| When operating the JCB 19-C-1E with the heater on, there is zero impact to the machine’s digging or tracking performance and still allows a full day’s shift to be worked. |
With a large, glazed area, the ROPS/FOPS cab is equipped with easy to replace laminated flat glass. It has a 70/30 front windshield split, with clear jointing for an unobstructed view of the digging area. The JCB cab offers a clear view all around the machine. The cab uses the same LED working lights and wipers as the diesel models, making it easier to work in poor visibility or during hours of darkness when required.
When operating the machine with the heater on, there is zero impact to the machine’s digging or tracking performance and still allows a full day’s shift to be worked.
The addition of a cab option will increase the appeal of the 19C-1E in regions with challenging weather conditions where a canopy is not suitable. The E-Tech cab provides a dry, comfortable operating environment throughout the working day with a locking door adding to the security of the machine for contractors and rental companies.
