JCB Manure Fork/Farming Simulator 17

The JCB Manure Fork is a Loading Tool available in Farming Simulator 17. It is a type of Manure Fork that can only be fitted to Skid Steer Loaders. The JCB Manure Fork can be directly compared to a JCB Universal Shovel in terms of its use, its abilities and its performance - and is lacking in pretty much every category, while also being more expensive. Its only advantage over a Universal Shovel is a locking jaw that can keep materials from spilling out during maneuvers.

Advantages

• Locking Jaw: The JCB Manure Fork has a hydraulic jaw that can be closed to prevent material from spilling out. The functionality of this mechanism in the game is limited, but it may have hidden uses.

Disadvantages

• Expensive: The JCB Manure Fork costs over twice more than a JCB Universal Shovel.
• Limited Cargo Types: Like all other Manure Forks, the types of cargo that can be shoveled and lifted by the JCB Manure Fork is very limited (see below), especially when compared to Buckets.
• Low Capacity: The JCB Manure Fork can only handle 1,700 Liters of material at once, making it one of the smaller Manure Forks. It is even smaller than a JCB Universal Shovel, which is almost uniformly superior to it.
