Product and Component Identification
Machine
Your machine has an identification plate. The PIN (Product Identification Number), weight, engine power, year
of manufacture and serial number of the machine are shown on the identification plate.
The serial number of each major unit is also shown on the unit itself. If a major unit is replaced by a new one,
the serial number on the identification plate will be wrong. Either get a replacement identification plate from
your JCB dealer or simply remove the old number. This will prevent the wrong unit number being quoted when
replacement parts are ordered.
