Cab mount 401/B2686 JCB, genuine

For the JCB machines: cab mount 401/B2686, a genuine JCB part.

A cab usually has several mounts made up of upper and lower parts; their shape and stiffness differ, so the right part number is chosen for each position. When the mounts are replaced as a set, the cab sits level and vibration is damped evenly, while replacing just one can leave the cab sitting crooked. Cab mount life depends on the ground and the pace of work, and is shorter on stony, uneven terrain. Old-type mounts are not always compatible with new-type cab fixings, so the type stated on the card is taken into account when choosing.

Fitting

For the change, lift the cab slightly with secure lifting gear and support it, never putting hands or body under it. Remove the old mount, clean the seat and fit the new mount the right way up. Once the cab is lowered, tighten the bolts to the specified torque and check that the doors close easily. Recheck the bolt torque after the first days of work.
