Control lever guard 128/C0217 JCB, aftermarket

Control lever guard 128/C0217 is an aftermarket part for the JCB machines. This is the protective cover of a control lever.

This cover or guard protects a mechanism inside or outside the cab (gear shift, door lock, wiper motor, control lever or a side panel of the machine) from outside damage and gives a tidy finish. It shields the mechanism from dust, water and knocks and stops the operator's hand or clothing catching on moving parts. A broken or missing cover lets the mechanism get dirty, rust and wear early, and exposed sharp edges can cause injury. The cover also manages airflow and noise around the mechanism.

Specifications

Compatibility

According to the product card, 128/C0217 is a cover. Fit is confirmed by the part number. Other parts are in Cab.

Fitting

Before fitting the cover, clean the mechanism beneath it and lubricate it if needed. Seat the new cover on its clips or screws without force and tighten the screws without overdoing it. After fitting, check that the mechanism works freely under the cover and that the cover does not rattle. Seat the cover so its edges line up with the surrounding panels. A rattling cover means broken clips and is put right without delay. If clips break during fitting, new ones are used.
